Lancashire Wedding Photography

Adrian & Elizabeth | Pre Wedding Photography Lancashire I met up with the lovely couple Adrian and Liz the other day for their pre-wedding shoot. They are a friendly, fun couple who brought along their puppy Hattie. She is perhaps the cutest puppy alive! We were blessed with stunning weather as we walked around the park, making the most of the sun as it was going down for the evening. It wasn't quite golden hour, but it was close enough, as the light gave a beautiful glow to the photographs. I will be joining them for their wedding day this September, so it's always exciting finding out how the plans...

Phillipa & Graham | Cumbria Wedding Photography Loweswater Graham and Philippa's day was one filled with so much fun, love and laughter. Never before have I been to a day dedicated to having so much fun. It's difficult to know where to start with this one, as it was jam packed with so many interesting details. Just a few highlights: An outdoors ceremony next to Loweswater, Lake District A walk through woods with wellies on route to the wedding reception Many, many games for all the guests such as Pooh sticks, skimming stones, a swing by the lake, giant garden Jenga... the list goes...

Matty & Lyndsey | Gretna Green Wedding Photography Scotland Recently I had the pleasure of running off to Gretna Green, Scotland to shoot a stunning wedding.  The day was an incredible one, my little family and I enjoyed a weekend away where we were able to join in with the festivities as I was working as their wedding photographer. The day felt like it had so much more meaning as it was a family wedding, I am always attached to my brides and grooms as I get to know them before the big day, but when it's family... it's a whole different level! Despite torrential rain for a majority of the morning...

Wedding Photography Lancashire & Cumbria I was back at one of my absolute favourite wedding venues this weekend, the very stunning Linthwaite House Hotel in Cumbria. Overlooking Lake Windermere, it's an amazing location on a normal day, but to be there in the sunshine... it's paradise! I was at Linthwaite a few weeks ago for Richard and Magda's Pre Wedding Shoot, where the trees were still lacking leaves and the flowers were not yet in bloom. We were blessed on Saturday, as the leaves and flowers have now come out giving the gardens and scenery extra beauty. Magda is Polish, as her parents...

Pure Emotion | Documentary Lancashire Wedding Photography Documentary wedding photography, reportage wedding photography, wedding photojournalism... whatever you want to call it, it's a large part of my style and aim as a wedding photographer. I always work to keep posing down to a minimum, allowing more emotion and natural moments to be captured on your big day. Acting as a fly on the wall for a large majority of the day, I let you get on enjoying yourself, and am as unobtrusive as possible. I recently shot a wedding at Gretna Green, Scotland. I was incredibly privileged to witness this...

Outdoor Wedding Catering | Cumbria & Lancashire Wedding Photography Recently I had the pleasure of photographing Philippa & Graham's wedding in the stunning Loweswater area of Cumbria, Lake District. Their wedding day was a unique and fun packed day, with all sorts of  detailed personal little touches. Pooh sticks to throw over a bridge, skimming stones on Lake Ulswater, a swing hanging from a tree, an old fashioned photo booth for guests to add photos to their guest book... there are too many details to list them all! One of the other lovely details was the food, which was provided...

Portmeirion Wedding Photography Sneak Peek It's always exciting getting back from a wedding and taking a little look at the photographs captured that day. An enjoyable (and slightly daunting) task is selecting an image or two to show the couple a teaser of their wedding day. Obviously due to backlog it can be a few weeks before the couple see all of their photographs, so I like to give them a chance to see at least one glimpse of what's to come. But how do you use one photograph to sum up an entire day packed full of so many people, so many things happening, and so many good times? I had the incredible...

Lancashire Wedding Photography | Detailed Wedding Photographs First and foremost I work as a wedding photographer to document your wedding day. Capturing beautiful emotions, moments as they happen, and taking pictures of the general atmosphere of the wedding.  But one part of the job  that I love is detail shots during bridal preparation. So much thought and attention goes into a wedding day. Brides spend a lot of time finding all of the perfect details to tie her wedding together and make it her own. Some brides even spend hundreds of pounds on the perfect shoes, which she will most likely...

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...

In this modern society, it is the norm to receive your wedding and portrait photographs in digital files. This is incredibly beneficial, and practical. However, there is nothing quite like seeing your pictures in print, in front of you in a beautiful wedding album to treasure. I decided to order an example of one of the albums I offer my clients, so they can see for themselves the beauty of pictures in print. I opened this package with much excitement, and I certainly was not disappointed with what I found! Inside the beautiful leather cover embossed with 'Karli Harrison Photography', some of my favourite...
