India & Matthew | Ashton Hall Wedding Photographer Sneak Peek
Meet the stunning India and Matthew, my gorgeous couple from the weekend at Ashton Hall, Lancashire They had such a lovely, warm winter wedding. The feel of weddings this time of year is always different. Cosy, often indoor celebrations due to weather. But as this shot proves, if you're up to venturing out in the wet, a bit of magic can happen on your wedding day!
India and Matthew, thank you both so much for asking me to be your photographer! It was such a pleasure to join you, and thank you for making me feel so welcome and at home...
Evelyn New Baby Shoot | Family Photographer Preston
Meet the lovely Samara, Mark and Evelyn! I had the pleasure of joining this beautiful family the other day for their baby shoot near Preston, Lancashire. I love seeing little families like this one. As great as it is photographing weddings, to capture a beautiful new baby and a couple past their wedding day is amazingly special. It was hard not to fall for the gorgeous Evelyn, with her huge blue eyes and stunning smile she was such a good girl for the shoot, hardly crying at all which made my job that much easier.
Samara and Mark, here's...
Lizzie & Charles | Pre Wedding Photographer
I met up with the beautiful Lizzie and Charles for their pre wedding shoot at the weekend. It was one of those gorgeous Autumn days with sunshine, we couldn't have been more spoiled with the weather and certainly came across some Autumn magic! The Autumn leaves were their usual stunning colour, making for a perfect walk in the sunshine along the river. It was nice to meet up with Lizzie and Charles and hear about their plans for their big day next month, and to get to meet their gorgeous dog Max.
Here are just a few of the photos as a little...
Wedding Albums | New Colours For Album Covers
It is with much excitement that I opened the new colour swatches displaying the different colour options for the wedding albums available to add to any wedding package. I've noticed a huge increase in albums this year, and I'm sure that the wider colour options and fabrics available will be a nice addition.
Here's some photos of the colours available, in both contemporary leather and fabrics. It's nice to now have some softer pastel colours for those wanting a brighter, lighter feel to their albums, while still offering the darker traditional...
Father of the Bride Moment | Wedding Photographer Manchester
This is one of the most beautiful moments of a wedding to capture. Those few seconds when a father sees his daughter as a bride for the very first time. It has always been one of my absolute favourite parts of a wedding, to see the range of emotions cross the face of the father. Excitement, pride, sometimes a slight sadness. So many emotions in just a few seconds. And occasionally a few tears!
One of the best reactions I have captured was at Karlie and Jamie's wedding. When Karlie's dad walked through the door he look absolutely...
Katie & John | Lancashire Family Photographer Clitheroe
I love family shoots. Working as a wedding photographer is truly enjoyable, but it's just as special seeing the other side of the story where people are often already married and they now have a baby or kids of their own. John and Katie's shoot was a beautiful one, I was asked to join them and the stunning little Spencer at their beautiful farmhouse in Clitheroe, Lancashire. The sun was shining and it was a perfect Autumn day to do a shoot.
The one thing that struck me about Spencer right away were his stunningly long eyelashes! So beautiful...
Italy Wedding Photographer Piedmont La Villa | Kayleigh & Simon
The beautiful Italian sunshine was shining at the wedding of Simon and Kayleigh which took place at the stunning La Villa hotel in Piedmont, Italy. It was such a beautiful day jam packed with gorgeous little touches, and lots of lovely emotion. It is the ultimate compliment when someone wants to fly you to a different country to join them for their special wedding day, and Kayleigh and Simon are such a wonderful couple they were a pleasure to be around and photograph.
The evening celebrations took place outside in the courtyard...
Ibiza Wedding Photographer Spain | Cathryn & Tom
The beautiful Cathryn and Tom invited me to join them for their stunning vow renewal that was technically a second wedding ceremony, just the two of them in Ibiza, Spain. We started off for their vow renewal on the beach at Jacaranda Lounge at Es Cana, with a ceremony performed by Hedley Paul. It was truly beautiful, and so personal. We took some time to enjoy the scenery after the ceremony and then travelled to the famous Cafe Mambo in San Antonio to watch the sun go down, and Cathryn and Tom were able to enjoy Fatboy Slim perform....
Melissa & Stuart | Wedding Photographer Eaves Hall Lancashire
This was one of those weddings. The kind where when you turn up the bridesmaids are dancing around the room, everyone is laughing and having a brilliant time- and you just know there is much more to come! From start to finish it was a true joy to join Melissa and Stuart for their lovely wedding at Eaves Hall, Lancashire. The beautiful theme of white was classic and classy, and suited the venue perfectly. There were some interesting personal touches too such as the fire performers they had to greet the evening guests.
