Karlie & Jamie | Pre Wedding / Family Photography Preston Sneak Peek
The lovely Karlie and Jamie met with me for their pre-wedding shoot with a difference, as it was technically a family shoot with their gorgeous daughter Sophia. It was a pleasure photographing them together, and I think you'll agree that Sophia kind of stole the show! It's great working with couples, but there's something about kids. They often are themselves in front of the camera and once they warm up they are usually so relaxed. We had a great time in the sunshine, enjoying the long walk, ducks, fish, and even the random...
Tom & Lauren | Belmount Hall Wedding Photography Cumbria
Lauren and Tom's day was filled with magic. It's difficult to know where to start with this one! How on earth do you put such a stunning day jam packed with so much love, emotion, gorgeous details and lovely people into a few words? It's a difficult one.
I first met Tom and Lauren for their engagement shoot a few weeks ago and they had a lovely chemistry... from then on I knew their wedding day would be a bit special. I wasn't disappointed! It was a pleasure to capture their happiness.
The beautiful wedding reception was held...
Cat & Paul | Ashfield House Wedding Photography Standish
The wedding day was filled with so much joy and laughter! The moment I walked into the house on the wedding morning to take some pictures of Cat and her party getting ready, the atmosphere was so relaxed, happy and friendly. This mood certainly stayed throughout the day, one look around at the guests and you could see how relaxed and happy everyone was.
Cat & Paul's wedding reception took place at the beautiful Ashfield House Hotel in Standish, where everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves in the beautiful sunshine. There were...
Sarah & Rich | Linthwaite House Wedding Photography Cumbria
It was a stunning and intimate wedding at Linthwaite House Hotel in Cumbria. Sarah and Rich had chosen to invite just a few of the closest people to them, which made the day a lovely small celebration in style. I was only with them for a few hours, but it was clear to see what good parents they are, and how in love they are as a couple! I love smaller weddings, and when couples decided to get married in their own way instead of following the 'norm' it really does make their day that bit more special and personal.
After their...
Emma & Tim Sneak Peek | The Merewood Wedding Photography Cumbria
My first wedding of 2014 has come and gone. I had the pleasure of photographing Emma and Tim's gorgeous wedding day last weekend at the Merewood in Cumbria. It was a day full of much love and laughter, and despite the heavens opening up with rain as soon as we reached Cumbria, our spirits weren't dampened and we all had a lovely time.
Every once in a while I get a shot that stands out, and this one certainly did, which is why I chose it as their sneak peek! It was taken during the first dance, and I think it simply...
Northwest Wedding Photographer | Lancashire Wedding Photography
It is with much excitement that we enter into 2014. Our busiest year in business is ahead of us, with weddings booked in places as far away as Italy, and a bit closer to home in Anglesey, a couple of other locations in Wales, Scotland, and of course all over England ranging from Lancashire, Cheshire, Liverpool, Cumbria, all the way down to London.
2013 was a fabulous year, full of so many wonderful couples and weddings. It was also jam packed with many engagement shoots, and lifestyle family photo shoots. I had the privilege...
Top 20 Favourite Wedding Photos of 2013
Wow, what a year 2013 was! It was certainly my busiest yet, and it was jam packed with so many gorgeous weddings, engagement and lifestyle photo shoots. I feel incredibly blessed to be doing what I love for a job, and each year just gets busier!
Narrowing down so many wonderful, and special moments to just a few photographs to sum up a whole year is incredibly difficult. I worked with lots of wonderful people, and each and every wedding was unique. There were simply too many weddings to share photos from each, so here are just a few personal favourite...
Shaun & Abby | Peckforton Castle Wedding Photography Cheshire
All weddings are beautiful. Some are small and intimate. Some larger, full of many friends and family. Some have just a few details, and some are beautifully extravagant. They all have one thing in common, they are full of love and happiness. Shaun and Abby's amazing day at Peckforton Castle in Cheshire was definitely one packed full of the most beautiful touches. But it was also full of lovely emotion.
This is one wedding that I'd been looking forward to for a long time, as Peckforton Castle` is a spectacular venue. The day certainly...
Last year I found the wonderful website and blog, The Wedding Community. It's a fantastic site for all wedding photographers, brides and grooms, and wedding suppliers. I saw they were running something called 'Picture of the Day' where photographers can submit a few images to the blog, and if picked, a picture will be featured on their site. I decided to submit just one image, and I was over the moon to be featured. I had never taken part in anything like this before, so I didn't expect much when all of the images from the month were put in the 'Picture of the Month' competition. To my shock...
The third location I'd like to mention in my wedding venue section of my website is the incredible Kew Gardens. Located in London, Kew Royal Botanic Gardens is such an incredible location to have a wedding. It is a massive lush garden, full of all sorts of stunning trees, bushes and flowers. Kew offers a number of different buildings to get married and have a wedding reception, from conservatories to stunning buildings. I can't go on about it enough, it is a beautiful place to work and a true inspiration for London wedding photographers alike.
For the bridal portraits of the wedding I shot...
