2020 // LOVE + MAGIC AGAINST ALL ODDS
2020 // LOVE + MAGIC AGAINST ALL ODDS

This year has seen:

A first dance to a brass band in the car park when receptions weren’t allowed // elbow bumps and kisses blown // a wedding planned in three days to get in before November Lockdown 2.0 // face masks for guests hastily made to match outfits // a wedding allowed to have 30 guests with only a day to spare // champagne toasts from a car boot in a lay-by following a ceremony in Tier 3 // sanitiser table favours // would-have-been wedding guests waiting outside ceremonies to show their love from a distance // Zoom and Facebook broadcasts from church..

It’s been love and magic against all odds.

ASHLEIGH + RICHARD - FIG HOUSE AT MIDDLETON LODGE WEDDING, NORTH YORKSHIRE // STOP MOTION WEDDING FILM
ASHLEIGH + RICHARD - FIG HOUSE AT MIDDLETON LODGE WEDDING, NORTH YORKSHIRE // STOP MOTION WEDDING FILM

So! I thought today would be a good day to share something that feels a little more normal before the world turned upside down and we went into lockdown.. Ashleigh and Richard’s day at the Fig House at Middleton Lodge was the last wedding that I shot in February before everything changed.. I didn't know it'd be my last wedding for a while and now I can’t help but think back to such a gorgeous day with everyone hugging and kissing and loving freely like we all hope to again soon.

ASHLEIGH + RICHARD - THE FIG HOUSE, NORTH YORKSHIRE // WEDDING

It was so good to be back at the beautiful Fig House on the Middleton Lodge estate in North Yorkshire for Ashleigh and Richard’s wedding. These two were joined by their wonderful girl Evangeline, who was a real whirlwind of fun all day and the fact that this day was about the three of them as a family really added something extra-special to the day.

It gives me great pleasure to finally share Hannah and Dan’s stop motion film from their fabulous wedding at The Talbot/York House in North Yorkshire last October. What a wedding..

“Dan and I sat down last night and watched through the video and pictures - wow! Just WOW! We were absolutely blown away by them! You’ve totally captured every moment of the day. You were absolutely amazing on the day and really put us both at ease! Thank you so, so much!”

2019 - A LITTLE SLICE OF MAGIC // STOP MOTION SHOWREEL

One of my favourite parts of work is creating stop motion films.. they take an absolute age to put together, they involve processing thousands of photos, hours agonising over music choices, fiddling and adjusting and tweaking over and over again.. but when they finally come together it feels like magic - the photographs become alive; it’s a completely different way of reliving the day.

KATIE + DAN - NORTH YORKSHIRE MARQUEE WEDDING // TESTIMONIAL

“Having Sally as our photographer was one the best decisions we made for our wedding.

On the day she was brilliant, moving subtly between guests to capture shots and handling delicate family situations with the utmost professionalism and tact. 

The photos themselves were out of this world magical.”

Hannah + Dan | The Talbot, Maltby, North Yorkshire

Hannah and Dan! What a laugher and fun-filled day.. my face actually hurt from smiling and laughing after your wedding!

Hannah and Dan married in Malton, saying ‘I do’ at the town centre church before walking down to the Talbot to celebrate afterwards. They held their reception in the house and then a marquee in the gardens which was styled beautiful with a mix of greenery, elegant touches and nods to Dan’s love of cricket. They danced the night away to a ceilidh (always the best idea IMO) - it was SO much fun and the perfect wedding to end my wedding season on.

Lizzie + Simon - Middleton Lodge, North Yorkshire | STOP MOTION WEDDING FILM

It was so fab to be back at Middleton Lodge for Lizzie and Simon’s beautiful wedding and to create this stop motion wedding film for them. 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!

Alexandra + Andrew | The Fig House Wedding, North Yorkshire

Just look at these colours! Do I need to say much more? Alex and Andrew married at the Fig House on the MIddleton Lodge estate one beautiful September day and it was absolutely stunning. After sharing a few preview photos on my social media I had dozens of messages about Alex’s incredible ‘3D’ wedding dress - how beautiful and how absolutely perfect for the time of year and setting is it?! Their styling at the Fig House was simple and cool, lots of personal touches and fab ideas which suited the room so well.

Here are a few favourites from their day..

Katie + Dan | Marquee Wedding in Ingleby Greenhow, North Yorkshire

Oh Katie and Dan! My heart is so full.

Katie and I met aged four in Primary school on our first day there. Somewhere further down the line she introduced me to Dan - a kind, intelligent and funny man that she’d already started building up a catalogue of raucous and hilarious stories together with.. They met within journalism circles through work and haven’t looked back. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for these two.

Katie and Dan, it was one of the most special days of my life being bridesmaid (can you spot me?) and documenting your incredible day.

Charlotte + André | The Pheasant Hotel Helmsley Wedding, North Yorkshire

Oh Charlotte and André! What a special day it was celebrating your wedding with you.. These two said their vows then headed up into the hill of beautiful North Yorkshire to hold their wedding reception at The Pheasant in Harome, a small village near Helmsley. There was sunshine and showers, incredible floral styling by The Wilde, ridiculously good colours.. I guess this is what happens when a wedding photographer (Charlotte!) plans the most beautiful and photogenic wedding.. (no pressure for me then, none at all…!)
