What an amazing day! I have to apologise in advance for the number of pictures in this post, but there’s just so much that we loved about the day. This was the furthest north we’ve been in the UK, and if anything, Scotland gets prettier as it gets colder.
The day was fun, emotional, intimate and full of cute moments – all the things I love about weddings. The couple and the guests were exceptionally welcoming and made us feel like part of the celebrations.
When you’re having your wedding at a castle, you really want to make the most of it! With this in mind, Lhacy & Ash had a night before gathering with their guests. A quick bite to eat then the ladies and men separated for the night.
The girls got to be girly and have a bridal shower, while the men played poker, pool, and putting a pair of boxers on a bison’s face – a new one for me.
If I had to sum up Rebecca and Dean’s wedding in a few words I’d pick: joyful and rainy!
A beautiful ceremony (with the loveliest priest ever who told me “I’m so happy you’re here; aren’t weddings a wonderfully happy occasion?”) followed by a relaxed reception at the Merewood in Windermere. Rebecca and Dean are calm people; a complete pleasure to be around. Even when facing a torrential downpour they had smiles on their faces. Who cares if it’s raining when you’re happy.
We are giddy with excitement! The Wedding Industry Awards 2012 – Best Wedding Photographer, North West! It means so much to us that so many of the amazing couples we have met over the last two years voted for us. I don’t want this to sound like an oscar acceptance speech, but seriously, thank...
We shot this lovely wedding last week at the lovely Maison Talbooth on the border of Essex/Suffolk. It was a much classier affair than ‘the only way is essex’ had led me to expect!
Amanda & Chris were aiming for a fabulous family party, where they also got married – nothing that screamed ‘wedding’! They’re best friends first and foremost, even choosing the wedding dress together, so anything stuffy and formal would have been well out of place.
Any day that includes afternoon tea, tennis, and a wine tasting is a great day in my book, throw a wedding ceremony into the mix and it’s just about perfect!
We had a lovely trip to the North East a couple of weeks ago for this gorgeous autumn wedding. Wynyard Hall is a stunningly beautiful building, with its own chapel attached (handy!) where Jo and James tied the knot.
Lovely people, lots of personal touches and FIVE cakes. Amazing.
I think Kirsty and Chris are the first couple we’ve photographed who met through kick boxing! After such a romantic start to a relationship, I’m sure none of their friends were surprised to end up at their wedding last weekend at Bagden Hall.
Cosy, informal, and fun describe their day perfectly. No kicking either. Autumn weddings rock!
Ah how we love an autumnal wedding!
Hayley and Rob are wonderful, funny, smiley people who are just so lovely to be around. It was a relaxed affair at Nunsmere Hall, complete with freak sunshine, beautiful details and a bridal hairdo so fabulous it made me want to jump up and down.
Our day began with Hayley at a magical cabin in the woods…
Kristina & Jon’s wedding was lovely! We’d never been to Singleton Lodge before, even though we drive past it every time we visit Laura’s parents. It’s the perfect venue for a country wedding, there’s even real live horses on the way in. We also had some lovely blue skies, yet again! We had something of...
We were so excited to shoot our first civil partnership, and Nick and Phill did not disappoint us! The venue, Ruthin Castle, is a really beautiful place. There are grand bits (chandeliers and such), rustic bits (medieval walls and gardens) and even a mini forest (by the car park, we always fall in love with...
