I get many prospective clients asking what kind of albums I offer in my packages and generally when I tell them, they are still non the wiser. Who can blame them though, it’s not everyday you go shopping for your wedding album.
So in light of this I thought I would post a few photographs displaying what exactly the Story Book albums look like. This one sports a full real leather cover with embossed names and is made up of 50 pages/sides.







I met up with Andrea + Craig last week to discuss some final details for their forthcoming destination wedding in Bellagio, Italy this September. Andrea, Craig and their guests will be staying at the luxurious Villa Serbelloni where they will enjoy a drinks reception after the ceremony and a 2 hour cruise around Lake Como!! What is even more exciting is that Andrea & Craig have privately booked the Villa del Balbianello for photographs. The Villa del Balbianello was featured in the blockbuster movie’s ‘Star Wars Episode II – Attack of the Clones’ & ‘Casino Royale’.
Words cannot describe how much I am looking forward to this gig! It’s going to be EPIC! Watch this space for what promises to be an amazing italian photofest!!

May I introduce to you the amazing Deana + Will! These guys are getting wed this September at Scaitcliffe Hall in Todmordon, Yorkshire. Feels like years ago since they first got in touch and indeed it was. Deana contacted me around June 2007 to see if I would be available to shoot their wedding! Luckily, booking so far in advance paid off and they were able to secure that prime date in September.
Look forward to seeing you guys again soon!

This weekend saw me second shooting with a friend and fellow photographer David Pearce from Open Leaf Weddings at the amazing Allerton Castle near Harrogate, North Yorkshire. David is from Kent and took the trip up north to cover the event for his long term friend Eliza. The venue is stunning and the Bride..just as much!
Big thanks to David for letting me tag along as I thoroughly enjoyed the day and hopefully captured the splender of such a wedding. Below are a few tasters of my time at Allerton Castle.

Andrew & Gail were recommended to me by one of my past clients, who’s wedding I shot last December. Gail & Andrew choose Gibbon Bridge Hotel near Preston, Lancashire. Now even though the weather was a wash out the Gardens still looked amazing so I knew as long as the rain held off, we still had a great location.
I have hand picked a few of my favourite shots of the day.

Ric is an old work collegue of mine and asked me if I was available to shoot his wedding at Coniston Hall, Skipton in North Yorkshire. Kate had her fingers crossed in the hope of a white wedding and it seems somebody out there was listening to deliver the goods. The snow covered landscape was almost untouched and with the low winter sun beaming down on us, I knew it was going to be special.
Coniston Hall is one of the nicest venue’s I have worked at and would recommend it to anyone who wants a small private civil ceremony. Hopefully my images will do it justice.
One last note, is to wish Ric & Katy all the very best for the future.

I have never sweated so much in all my life as I did at this wedding. I think it was on record for the hottest day for this time of year. It was also my Birthday and I usually don’t like to work on my Birthday but I could hardly say no.
Mick & Zoe married at St.James Church, Harle Syke in Burnley followed by an evening reception at the Old Stone Trough in nearby Foulridge. It was a cracker of a day, everyone was in good spirits helped along by the glorious weather and refreshing drinks. Mick & Zoe asked me to stay for a drink or two after I had finished, then I hit the sack as I was absolutely drained after a days shooting in the heat.
