I had the pleasure of photographing Ben & Kate's wedding day recently in Yorkshire. 

As is usual with my style of photography, I started the day by capturing the 'getting ready' images. I started at Kate's parents house where all the bridesmaid's were. I love this part of the day as it makes for some great images with everyone excited and also a little nervous about the day ahead. Even the dog joined in for a quick portrait! 

From then on, we made use of the beautiful surroundings of the couples wedding venue - Kings Croft Hotel - in Pontefract. This was my first time shooting at the venue and hopefully I will get the opportunity to photograph another wedding there soon. The venue was perfect as only a few short steps outside the venue were some fantastic rolling hills and scenery which made for some nice portraits for Ben & Kate. 

A great day in all and even the weather held out! 

Congratulations again Ben & Kate.

A couple of weeks ago I caught up with an awesome couple (Shona & Andrew) in Saltaire. With the couples wedding coming up later this year, we planned the shoot for a summer evening a while ago. 

We started up on the moor's in Baildon & shot some images on the rocks making use of the beautiful vista behind. My style of photography is very much relaxed & unobtrusive, this then lets my couples naturally interact with both each other & myself. So with this mind we captured some great shots of them enjoying the surroundings of the moors & a little later when we moved down in Saltaire. 

It was a pleasure to spend a couple of hours with Shona & Andrew again & I'm really looking forward to capturing the wedding day.
