I travel all over the country to document weddings, from the North East to North Wales and from Aberdeen to Sussex. I really enjoy travelling all over the country & visiting a wide variety of venues. That being said, however when I had the opportunity to walk to Francesca & Ronan’s York wedding, I fully embraced it!
Jennifer & Matt’s wedding was my first at Rudding Park and such a joy to shoot. The venue is stunning and incredibly versatile. The wealth of lavishly decorated rooms meant that every chapter of the day was afforded it’s own backdrop.
After covering Jennifer’s preparations, I hopped over to St Wilfrid’s Church in Harrogate for the ceremony. I love it when there’s a historical connection to a particular part of the day, and since Jennifer had been baptised in the church it made their choice all the more significant.
‘Gus & Julia married in the beautiful Wiltshire village of Marden. My coverage of the day began with Julia’s preparations at her family home before heading over to the nearby village church. After the ceremony, guests returned to Julia’s family home for a drinks reception. We took the opportunity to capture some relaxed portraits before the weather encouraged us into the marquee for dinner. The speeches invariably make for some great photography, both from the speakers & reactions from the guests, and these speeches didn’t disappoint!
Like many of my fellow photographers, I’ve taken a little time in the month of January to reflect on some of my favourite York Wedding Photography from the year just gone. It’s been a truly diverse year; documenting weddings of all different sizes, styles and locations, each one perfectly suited to the couple. I’ve really enjoyed being … Read more
Chris and Susie’s beautiful wedding in Sussex was such a genuine pleasure to document. Their traditional service was held at St Margaret’s church in the village of West Hoathly where the heavens truly opened after the ceremony! This was swiftly followed by a lovely champagne reception at Slaugham Place where, remarkably, the weather was nothing short of stunning.
As this years outside temperature started to warm up (slightly), Claire & Robin celebrated their marriage at Grinkle Park Hotel in beautiful Easington, North Yorkshire.
Documenting Claire & Robin’s wedding was particularly special for me, as I’d had the fortune of living with Robin in my final year at the University of York and it was a real honour to be commissioned to record the beginning of his marriage to Claire.
Below are a few of my favourite images, from the union of loving families and the re-union of dear friends.
Congratulations Claire & Robin!
Earlier this year I had the pleasure of documenting Joanne & Jonathan’s vow renewal ceremony at the Crowne Plaza in Liverpool. The hotels characteristic 1930’s architecture and strong aviation heritage provided the back drop to an intimate day shared with family and close friends.
I have the pleasure, on a very regular basis, of documenting the beginning of a couples married life with the exchange of their vows. It was a real privilege to see Joanne & Jonathan renew their commitment to each other.
