Donna and Michael both have an infectious and wicked sense of humour. They first met at college over 11 years ago and it is very obvious that they are best friends and know each other inside out. We spent most of their engagement session giggling, they are so much fun to be with and are not afraid to be silly, which is the best combination! I’m really looking forward to taking their wedding photographs at the fabulous Newburgh Priory near York.
When you ask Rebecca and Michael what they do and how they met, they look at each other sheepishly. They are the people you are not supposed to like; they both work for the Inland Revenue.
Unfortunately there is no way you can help but like them, they are so caring and warm, and so obviously madly in love with each. Their wedding is going to be relaxed, informal and loads of fun, and I for one can’t wait! If their engagement shoot is anything to go by, their wedding is going to be great to photograph.
I have always loved stationary, and I fell in love with letterpress printing the first time I saw it. It is just so luxurious! I think that if a business card is just so damn cool that you can’t throw it away, then that has to be a good thing. Mine were designed and printed by Sally Ann of Invited Ink and I am so pleased with them. They are almost too nice to give away but I will have to remind myself that that is what they are for!
Sally Ann also designs and prints wedding invitations so brides and grooms, take note. You could hardly hope for a more stylish introduction to your wedding.
Here they are, with my signature colour on the back:
And notecards to match:
Debbie and Gavin are both smart, funny, kind and a perfect match for each other. They are clearly very much in love and can’t wait to get married in just over a weeks time! I had great fun with them shooting their engagement session last week at Solberge Hall,Yorkshire, and I’m really looking forward to photographing their wedding, it’s going to be a brilliant day.
Gavin proving that Debbie is ticklish!
….you guessed it, I am a wedding and portrait photographer. I’m a big fan of weddings and all things pretty, and I’m also a converted baby and child fan as well – I’m a new mum. When I’m not behind a camera you’re likely to find me at home with Isabella and my three dogs Biscuit, Twix and Crumbs – or escaping to the stables or even the pub which can be a bit of a rarity these days (I’m a not-so-secret country bumpkin). To fit in with being a Mum I’m now working from an office at home instead of Newby Hall – which gives me more time to bake! Please email me to arrange an appointment if you’d like to sample some cakes and have a chat about your wedding in more detail, or if you’d like to book a family portrait. If you’re looking for a friendly, easy going (usually!) photographer/free cakes/a trip to the country you are in the right place.
Big thanks to the lovely Cris Matthews for this photo.
