I can't express how much fun Delia & Sean's big day was.

Firstly, a huge shout out to Delia, who climbed over a wooden fence in her dress & heels to get into the fields surrounding the hall for their photographs. Never an easy task but you did it in style & it was totally worth it!

Secondly, Delia & Sean had completely decked out the lawn with hoola hoops, space hoppers, limbo, hay bales & a seriously cool VW Camper photobooth! Oh and jester hats all round.. just because. And to top it all off, as everyone was having such a good time outside, Delia & Sean decided to do their first dance out there too, surrounded by their loved ones all singing along to Oasis, it was such a perfect moment.

I hope wedding number 2 is as perfect as this one, have an amazing time in Romania guys.. I can't wait to hear about it when you're back <3

Being asked to photograph another photographer's wedding day is such a flattering thing however it's a teeny bit scary too! So Danni, a huge thanks for putting your trust in me :)

Prestwold Hall looked absolutely gorgeous, surrounded by countryside & the sun shining for the first time in ages! The day was topped of with a special appearance from the CUTEST fluff ball, Enzo (who took bribes of salami in return for posing) & of course, a raffle - as in the words of Danni's stepdad, no good event is complete without one!

Danni & Pasq, thanks again for asking me to be a part of your beautiful day. Hope you're having an amazing time in Ibiza <3

Lauren & Niall only booked me a few months ago & I was so pleased when I still had their date free. They filled me in on their plans of having the ceremony at the gorgeous Ness Gardens and then heading over to Sheldrakes Restaurant for their reception on the waterfront - both venues I’d shot at before & couldn’t wait to get back to.

Sheldrakes is one of those lucky few venues that has a seriously cool photo-worthy location right on it’s doorstep. It’s situated right on the estuary and is lined with moored boats, making a unique spot for portraits. Lauren looked uhh-mazing in her dress, which had a removable skirt to transform it into a fish-tale number for the evening do & Niall, of course, scrubbed up pretty well too! They absolutely rocked their portrait shoot, surrounded by boats, sun going down & huge grins across their faces. What more can a photographer as for!

Thanks so much for inviting me to be a part of your day & thank you again for the beautiful flowers. Have an amazing honeymoon guys, hope you’ve got your feet up with a cocktail in hand <3

Zara & Chris got married in the beautiful Christ Church in Port Sunlight, Wirral. I've been lucky enough to photograph several weddings at this gorgeous church now & have more weddings booked in there in the coming years! It has the longest aisle, perfect for making a grand entrance & the grounds are beautiful.

After the ceremony we headed over to 'the dell' for Zara & Chris's photographs, before making our way to The Leverhulme Hotel to carry on the celebrations.

The Leverhulme Hotel is a great venue, with a beautiful outdoor area & huge room for the wedding breakfast which also has a central dancefloor!

It was an amazing day & I can't wait to get back to both Christ Church & The Leverhulme Hotel for some more beautiful weddings :)

 

Emily & Daniel's super stylish wedding at merrydale manor, cheshire

This Friday I had the absolute pleasure of 2nd shooting Emily & Daniel's beautiful day at Merrydale Manor, for my lovely photographer friend Cat Walsh!

I very rarely have time to 2nd shoot after my filling my diary up with my own bookings, but when I do get the chance to squeeze a date in, I absolutely love it! There's something very inspiring about watching another photographer in action & it's a great opportunity to take a step back from the pressure of timings and group shots and focus on the things that you don't always get the chance too much when being a main shooter!

Phil & Nicola's Outdoor Wedding at Nunsmere Hall, Cheshire

I'd been dying to shoot a wedding at Nunsmere Hall in Cheshire and was over the moon when Nicola & Phil booked me for their day there!

We've had such a rainy few weeks and I had all my fingers crossed that the sun would make an appearance for Phil & Nic as they had their hearts set on an outdoor wedding ceremony. I turned up at Nunsmere nice and early to have a scout round for locations before I met Nicola and the bridesmaids getting ready, the sun was out and there were blue skies all round, an absolute miracle!

After Nicola was wedding-ready & in her dress, I headed outside to photograph the ceremony area before the guests were seated. Just as I got outside, a huge black cloud blew over and it started chucking it down! I quickly dumped my camera inside and ran out to help the staff gather up the chair covers & roll up the carpet so it didn't get ruined. As quickly as the rain started, it stopped & the sun & blue skies were back once again! We all stood there in disbelief not knowing whether to carry on moving everything inside or start putting it back out. The wedding co-ordinator called Nic and she bravely said they'd go ahead with the outdoor ceremony. With 5 minutes to go we all raced around setting up again and making it perfect for the Bride & Groom.

Nicola definitely made the right call. The sun carried on shining and there wasn't a drop of rain in sight!

Chris & Pippa's Rustic Country Wedding at The Plough Inn, Eaton

The Plough Inn Eaton Wedding, Cheshire

Pippa & Chris got married in the beautiful St Catherine's Church in Macclesfield, just a short walk away from Pippa's parents house where the girls had been busy getting ready all morning! So, when everyone was all dolled up and good-to-go, they walked through the fields surrounding the house, to an eagerly awaiting Groom-to-be.

After an emotional service in the quaint little church, it was time for Pippa & Chris to make a confetti showered exit and head back up through the fields for some photographs & a champagne toast, before joining their guests at The Plough Inn, Eaton!

The Plough Inn is a lovely little country pub in Eaton, complete with the most amazing barn filled with wooden beams. It made the perfect place to continue on with the celebrations. The barn had been decorated with vases of flowers hand picked from Pippa's mum and dads garden, paper cranes to mark each guests place & a rustic cake that made your tummy rumble just looking at it!
