Winter wedding at Hassop Hall, Jane and Will

Thursday, February 2, 2012 Posted in Hassop Hall, wedding

Winter wedding at Hassop Hall

A beautiful crisp Winters day in Derbyshire, the perfect setting for a wedding!

I turned up to Hassop Hall in glorious Winter sunshine, the wind was bitter but the views were amazing. Jane and Will were both getting ready at Hassop so I managed to get a few shots of the boys in the grounds before they set off for the pub! Jane had a lovely big room to get ready in with her gorgeous dress hung in the perfect spot for a photo!

The wedding ceremony was held just down the road in Holy Trinity Church, Ashford in the Water, I got down in plenty of time to make sure I got some shots of Will in the pub and then walking to the church.

Although the day was cold we did manage to get outside for a few portraits in Hassop’s grounds, at this point in the day the light was amazing and I got some fantastic shots of Jane and Will, and they didn’t look cold either

I had a great day and loved the atmosphere! Here are a selection of my favourites from the day. Friends and family can see the full gallery here, please contact Jane or Will for the password.

A Yorkshire wedding at Rotherham Golf Club

Monday, January 16, 2012 Posted in wedding

Rotherham Golf Club doesn’t sound the most glamorous venue but when you see the building…!

Emma and Ben had chosen to have their wedding here after Emma had scoured the area for something, well a bit different.

The ceremony was at 4pm so we had no day light after but we managed to catch the sky before it went black for some lovely relaxed portraits.

The amazing wedding cake was created by the very talented Abbie and Darren from Butterflies and Angel’s, as well as looking incredible it tasted fantastic!

Here are a selection of my favourites from the day. Friends and family can see the full gallery here.

Wedding photography at The Maynard, Lucy and Shaun

Wedding photography at The Maynard.

Lucy and Shaun’s wedding was always going to be an interesting one. Shaun is an officer in the RAF and had organised a traditional sword party. Lucy’s dress was a one off Ian Stuart number with matching bolero from The Design Room, Abingdon, Emma from Orchis had done an amazin job with the flowers(as usual)…and The Maynard!

It was a beautiful Autumn day which gave us a chance to nip up to Padley Gorge for a few photo’s, Lucy had her wedding Hunters especially! We had to contend with the wind but got some fabulous shots.

Here are a selection of my favourites from the day, friends and family can see the full gallery here please contact Lucy or Shaun for the password.

Wedding photography at Kenwood Hall | Lizzie & Chris

Wedding photography at Kenwood Hall

Lizzie & Chris were married in the fabulous St. John’s church in Ranmoor, which was about two minutes from where Lizzie was getting ready so kept things easy. After photographing the girls I met Chris in The Ranmoor Inn, a popular pre wedding pub just over the road from the church.

After the ceremony it was off to Kenwood Hall for the reception where I managed to get 15 minutes with Lizze & Chris between the heavy rain. Kenwood hall has lovely grounds and the Autumn colours looked brilliant.

The speeches were great, three best men certainly main for some interesting photographs!

Here are a selection of my favourites from the day. The full gallery can be seen here, please contact Lizzie or Chris for the password.

Marquee wedding photography | Caroline & John

Marquee wedding photography

This was my most local wedding ever! Caroline and John were getting ready at Whitley Hall, 5 minutes from my house. The wedding was then held at my local church, St. Mary’s in Ecclesfield, followed by a marquee reception in Caroline’s parents garden half a mile from the church!

I had a great day and Andrew, Caroline’s Dad even brought me a pint of Farmers Blond (my favourite beer, by Bradfield Brewery) during the meal!

Here are a few of my favourites from the day. Friends and family can see the full gallery here, please contact Caroline or John for the password.
