MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009

Just a very quick post today to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I hope you all enjoy the snow if you have any (if you don’t, it’s snowing here on my blog and also on my website!), and wrap up warm with some mulled wine and mince pies.

I’m off to my parents home in Northamptonshire, and as the eldest of seven (yes, SEVEN) brothers and sisters the house will be packed with people and presents, and rather too many little naughty dogs!

Also, Sarah and Chris’ beautiful wedding at the York Maze was featured on Rock My Wedding yesterday, part one is up and part two is coming soon!

SWINTON PARK WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER | JACQUI AND STEFAN: ENGAGED

Tuesday, December 8th, 2009

Stefan and Jacqui are having a small, intimate wedding at the fabulous Swinton Park in a couple of weeks time, and we met there for their engagement photographs. They had their gorgeous son Louis with them, who was so cute he ended up stealing the show.

Swinton Park is a romantic, fairytale wedding venue in Yorkshire, and is a dream for a wedding photographer!

ROCK MY WEDDING BLOG FEATURES NAOMI AND ROBIN’S WEDDING

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

When I was asked by Rock My Wedding if they could feature Naomi and Robin’s gorgeous wedding on their blog, I was thrilled. I have been a fan of Rock My Wedding for a while now, and if you are planning a wedding and love all things pretty, you must go there NOW! You will find plenty of inspiration, but, be warned, you will be hooked.

PHOTOGRAPHER YORKSHIRE | CALENDAR GIRLS OF HELPERBY

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

This is not my usual area of photography, but when I was asked to photograph the charity calendar for Helperby Cricket Club, I said yes straight away. I was glad I had, the calendar girls were amazing fun, completely frank, and (after a glass of wine!) open to any suggestions I made.

The result is a calendar full of beautiful, slightly naked ladies, which will hopefully make big bucks for two charities: Helperby Cricket Club and York Breast Care Unit.

Allyson and John looked forward excitedly to their wedding day, and at last it came. Blue skies and lovely light came with it, it was one of the nicest day’s I have ever seen up in moody Wensleydale. They married in Aysgarth Church, and had their reception at the beautiful Simonstone Hall.
