Wedding Photography Cumbria

Carlisle Wedding Photographer Cumbria One of the many places I end up travelling to for my wedding photography is Cumbria. It's easily one of the most gorgeous and scenic locations to visit in the UK! It's always a pleasure to get many weddings based in this area. Carlisle is one of my most popular locations for my portrait photography, as I get many family photo shoots based in the area. Despite the popularity for families, it's also been a popular area for weddings as well. I've had the pleasure of photographing weddings all over England, Scotland, Wales, Italy and Spain. I tend...

Wedding Photography Packages The first thing people usually ask me when they get in touch is what are my prices and packages. Obviously a very important part of booking a wedding photographer! My main package is a full day package. Most couples prefer to have someone cover photography from bride prep (sometimes groom prep too if he's nearby!) the ceremony, wedding breakfast and the evening reception until just after the First Dance. I do get variations on this package though which is why I'm always happy to tailor a package to suit each couple. Some brides and grooms have requested:...

Wedding USBs | Wedding Photo Storage As a wedding photographer I know how important memories are, which is why I always import my wedding photos onto USBs to make sure they're on a safe place to store. I place them in a decorative box, which a couple can keep for many years to come. Sometimes life happens and it's possible to lose your wedding photos (especially during the chaos of a house move!) which is why I always keep a hard copy of your photos for two years after the wedding to make sure your photos are safe. I know just how devastating it can be to lose your memories -- especially...

Worried About Rain On Your Wedding Day? | Wedding Photographer UK Most couples book their wedding months, if not years, in advance to the big day. The British weather is certainly unpredictable (don't we all know it!) and whatever the time of year, rain is always a possibility. It's often a big worry on a bride's mind. A few tips that can help with your pre-wedding weather jitters: Ensure you have some umbrellas to hand. It may seem obvious, but I always carry around some large cream umbrellas in the boot of my car, just in case. It's one less thing for brides to think about, and in actual...

Matt and Sarah were able to go outside and enjoy the grounds of the venue for both photographs and time together...

Although the weather was a very wet and dark, it certainly didn't dampen anyone's spirits and the venue itself was perfect with large windows and neutral backgrounds. One thing that is so adorable about Andrew and Emily is how in love they are!...

Kerry & Lee | Wedding Photographer Linthwaite The beautiful Kerry and Lee were married a few days ago at the stunning venue Linthwaite House Hotel in Cumbria, near Lake Windermere. They chose to celebrate their special day with just a few of their closest family and friends, which added to the intimacy and warmth of the wedding. Smaller and intimate weddings always have a lovely feel to them, and Kerry and Lee's day was certainly no exception. Although I was only with them for a few hours, they were such a joy to join and it will be a wedding I'll always remember. During the speeches...
