Lewi & Izzie | The Lodge Mesnes Park
Wow! Where do I start with this one?! Meet the gorgeous Izzie and Lewi. They were married at The Lodge at Mesnes Park, Wigan. Their wedding reception took place at Mawdesley Village Hall, West Lancashire.
The day started out with a Met Office forecast of thunderstorms and incoming torrential rain. Just in time for the formal group photos! I confess, I very rarely worry about the weather as I can work with some rain but this was looking a bit grim. Instead of storms we were given dry skies and beautiful light to work with - allowing us to take the family...
Nicola & Dave | West Tower Wedding Photographer
The gorgeous Nicola and Dave were married a few days ago at West Tower in Ormskirk, Lancashire.
We were at one venue for the entire day. This is always so refreshing! It allows for a relaxed atmosphere and along with the glorious sunshine the mood couldn't have been brighter! Their guests were all very friendly and a pleasure to be around, and it was clear how much they love the couple. Nicola and Dave have waited a long time for this moment. They had to postpone three times due to Covid, which just made the day that much sweeter! There...
Nicola & Dave | Spring Pre Wedding Photography Preston
Meet the gorgeous Nicola and Dave! We met up for their spring pre wedding shoot at Avenham Park in Preston, Lancashire. This couple are clearly in love, making my job so easy! They were lovely and relaxed, and both have a great sense of humour making the shoot fun. They actually booked me before Covid started, and like so many couples, they have had to postpone. This really adds to the anticipation and excitement of their wedding coming up this weekend.
During the shoot we walked around the park picking out little spots of nice light....
Natural Wedding Photography
The biggest compliment I've ever had as a wedding photographer is to be called a ninja! This has been mentioned to me by at least three different couples over the many years I've been shooting weddings. They said I was so discreet when capturing the day, they hardly noticed I was there. This is honestly the biggest compliment! A wedding day is all about the bride and groom, and shouldn't be about the photographer. By allowing a wedding to flow naturally and by being that fly on the wall for a majority of the day, you can capture a wedding day as it happens. These natural...
Mel & Jay | Wedding Photographer Best Western Garstang
Meet the gorgeous Mel and Jay! There's something so incredibly special about being asked to photograph a wedding for a friend, and it's a rare treat for me! Mel and Jay wanted their wedding to reflect them- a few wonderful highlights hinting at their personalities were the pie and chips as the wedding meal, the pizza van and the wedding reception itself at the Best Western in Garstang. It was beautifully decorated with lots of twinkling lights giving it a perfect rustic and classic feel. They had 150 guests for the wedding breakfast...
Carla & Greg | Bartle Hall Wedding Photographer Preston
The beautiful Carla and Greg were recently married in Portugal. They returned to the UK to have a large wedding reception to celebrate their new marriage at Bartle Hall, Lancashire. They were joined with their friends and family where they enjoyed a delicious buffet, a large chocolate fountain, lots of cake and fantastic dance music.
Carla and Greg had clearly put a lot of thought into all of the little details of the party. The theme was close to their hearts as they both love to travel. They had a globe for guests to sign, roses made...

Meet Nathalie and Tim! This gorgeous pair instantly break into smiles as soon as they are together which makes them a dream to photograph. Tim is an old friend, so being asked to shoot his wedding was an absolute honour. The day was a lovely one, full of so much happiness and laughter. It's clear to see how much Nathalie and Tim are loved by their family and friends, and the joy of their guests really added to the relaxed and happy atmosphere of the wedding.
For their meal and evening reception Nathalie and Tim went...

Stunning Becky and Craig were married a few days ago at Bartle Hall in Preston, Lancashire. Becky got ready at The Marriott in Preston, with many loved ones around her. Her hair and makeup was done by the talented Nala and Knot . The ceremony itself was in the beautifully decorated room in Bartle, and it was here that everyone in the room witnessed the best first kiss! It was full of so much love and joy which was a pleasure to photograph. This lovely bride and groom are very much in love, and Becky's smile and happiness...
Stella & Ben | Lytham St Annes Wedding Photographer Clifton Arms
Introducing the lovely Stella and Ben! I had the pleasure of joining these two for a relaxed and natural rustic wedding in the sea side town of Lytham St Anne's, in Lancashire. They were fortunate to have some gorgeous Autumn sunshine which was perfect for some photos along Lytham Green and on the estuary near the Lifeboat centre. The area is special to them both, so photos along the stunning scenery meant a lot to them and we were very grateful for the good weather. We rode in the cream VW Beatle convertible from Clifton...
Chris & Emily | Bashall Barn Wedding Photographer Clitheroe
Where can I possibly start with this one? The gorgeous Emily and Chris were married at Bashall Barn in Clitheroe, Lancashire. The venue is a rustic building that is also part of a shop, cafe, working dairy farm and wedding venue that overlooks perfect countryside.
Emily and Chris are a lovely relaxed couple who were such a joy to work with. They were up for heading out into fields for some bride and groom portraits (twice) and also for standing in the middle of the cow barn... much to the amusement of the cows! The photos we were...
