Read MoreOh my goodness.. Chantelle and Andrew’s wedding was just beautiful It was my first time shooting a wedding at Tithe Barn at Bolton Abbey in North Yorkshire and it lived up to all my expectations. The sun shone, guests mingled outside, inside was one of the most beautiful barn set ups I’ve seen and it was just the perfect day from start to finish.
Here are a few favourites.. I hope to be back at the wonderful Tithe Barn in the future too!
Read MoreIt was so fab to be back at Middleton Lodge for Lizzie and Simon’s beautiful wedding. I love a day that is elegant and ends in a good party - such a good combination for a wedding! I’ve heard that it all ended in style down in the cellar bar at Middleton Lodge too.. It was an absolute pleasure to spend such a relaxed day with these two and their full-of-fun wedding guests - thanks again for having me as part of your celebrations! Here are a few previews for now… Congratulations again you two!
Read MoreWhen Michaela told me about her and Ashley’s ideas for a festival wedding I genuinely didn’t expect the set up to be as amazing as this! Their woodland wedding was held at Hazlewood Castle between York and Leeds, and their wedding was the second ever wedding to be held outdoors in the clearing there - it was the perfect setting for an outdoor festival wedding.

Read MoreWhat. A. Wedding.
Immy and Matt’s wedding was injected with so much fun and so much colour.. I knew theirs would be an amazing day to shoot and it would be an amazing crowd because I shot Immy’s sister Sorrel’s wedding last September which was also brimming with laughter, party people and incredible dance moves.
Their stop motion wedding film can tell the story better than I can.. so here goes!
Read MoreFrom the archives today is Cathy and Seb’s beautiful marquee wedding in Stirling in Scotland, held in the grounds at Cathy’s family home. It was personal, covered in beautiful blooms, had both a ceilidh and an amazing wedding band, and when I left at midnight I could tell that this party was going to go on until the sun came up..
Read MoreI think the setting for Laura and Arran’s wedding speaks for itself, really, but here goes!
Laura and Arran married on Loch Tay, up in Scotland. It was an absolutely incredible setting with atmospheric views of the loch and the surrounding hills, and a little rain didn’t stop their celebrations one tiny bit.
What. A. Wedding. Immy and Matt’s wedding was injected with so much fun and so much colour.. I knew theirs would be an amazing day to shoot and it would be an amazing crowd because I shot Immy’s sister Sorrel’s wedding last September which was also brimming with laughter, party people and incredible dance moves.
Read MoreI absolutely love Newcastle as a city and the quayside is so beautiful to shoot.. I was over the moon to be back at the Baltic for Tara and Anthony’s wedding - it’s such an interesting space to work with for photos and up on the 6th floor, where the meal and drinks were held, there are the most incredible views across the River Tyne up to the Sage and beyond…
Read MoreA beautiful Spring wedding at East Riddlesden Hall for you all today.. I hadn’t visited this beautiful National Trust venue before, and I was so excited to see it and shoot there for Jonathan and Suzanne’s barn wedding on Sunday.
Read MoreFrom today’s dusty wedding archives is Lucy and Andrew’s absolutely beautiful Lake District wedding at Underlay Grange (a venue at which the co-ordinator ‘could neither confirm no deny’ that Prince William celebrated his stag do, incidentally). I loved their wedding so much so that it became one of my sample albums - you may have spotted these two if we’ve met about your wedding plans or come along to a wedding fair that I’m showing at!
Read MoreSo! You've booked your photography, your date is confirmed in the diary.. that's another thing ticked off the list.. True! But there are still a few things to consider between now and your wedding..
Read More2019 wedding season has officially begun! After a few months off from shooting it felt so good to get back into the swing of weddings, and the season started with a bang with the beautiful and relaxed celebration of Caroline and Steven for their Cleveland Tontine wedding.
Read MoreSo! 2018 has flown by at a startling rate and it’s time to ‘round up’ ahead of diving into 2019.. I’ve shot enough weddings now to know what I love about them and which moments really make me tick. I know my ‘why’ for getting into this industry in the first place, I know why I love wedding photography the most, and I know the type of shots and the moments that really make my heart sing and make me excited about each and every wedding..
Read More…and just like that, it’s the end of 2018! Did it fly by for you all too?! I have my photography ‘2018 round up’ post coming very soon, but I thought I’d post my wedding stop motion film showreel from the past twelve months tonight to mark the end of the year.
Read MoreWhat an amazing Autumnal wedding at Priory Barns.. These two were so in love, so silly and so much fun - a real dream to work with and it was so special to be part of their wedding celebrations!
Read MoreTessa and Paul and a wonderfully intimate wedding in the Coppermine Cottages near Coniston in the Lake District where they said their vows in front of immediately family and friends. The weather wasn’t what they’d hoped for (100% chance of rain and a possibility of thunder and lightening..) but these two didn’t let it dampen any spirits at all.
Read MoreSeptember is one of my favourite months for weddings.. it’s the end of Summer but still slightly to warm to declare it ‘Autumn’. Phillippa and Toby lucked out and had beautiful sunshine and light for their York House in Malton wedding. Phillippa’s parents married at the adjacent Talbot House and it was magical that she and Toby celebrated their nuptials there too.
