The Story So Far
Katie & Jon - A Vibrant & Truly Wild Chester Zoo Wedding - Chester Zoo Wedding Photographer
Where do I even begin with Katie & Jon’s magical Chester Zoo wedding? These two incredible humans booked me at the start of the year, and from our very first chat, I just knew this was going to be something special. We have so much in common, it honestly felt like photographing dear friends — and today felt more like fate than work.
Jacqui & Dave (and Mabel pup!)- An Intimate Mid-Week Summer Micro Wedding at Rowton Hall - Chester Wedding Photographer
Yesterday the effervescent Jacqui married her sweetheart Dave in the Inglenook Suite of the GORGEOUS Rowton Hall in Chester with just a few very close family members faithfully looking on whilst their labrador (and ultimate flower girl) Mabel Pie bounded around greeting all her new best friends with her very own flower collar and goober-dog grin.
Mel & Steve - An Emotional, Boho-chic Oddfellows Chester Winter Wedding
Nothing like ending a KNOCKOUT year of weddings with a firework-size bang! Friday was an incredibly emotional, beautifully styled boho-chic wedding of my dreams from start to finish, planned to perfection by the WONDERFUL Mel.
Steph & Darren: An Elegant Delamere Manor Wedding
Steph & Darren's beautiful Delamere Manor wedding was the perfect example of an English garden party wedding, set on the rolling green hills of the STUNNING Delamere Manor estate (fun fact: it's also Gary Barlow's former home!). There were lawn games and tree swings and a stretch of incredibly moving (and hilarious) speeches in the glassed-in courtyard reception space under a jaw-dropping greenery-dripped floral chandelier by the geniuses at Hayley's Flower Studio.
Suzanne & Matthew: A West Didsbury Engagement Shoot
Suzanne & Matthew asked me to photograph their Manchester Town Hall wedding in September this year. 2017 felt so far away but I was thrilled! And after two years of full-time wedding photography, I feel the confidence to truly do their wedding day justice. But first thing was first: we needed to do another engagement shoot, one to reflect the past couple of years of training and evolution and this voice I've managed to find through so much hard work and both self & peer critique. I needed to give them photos that weren't just relying on their own natural chemistry but celebrated it and showed it off.
Rob & Elizabeth: A Chester Engagement Shoot
I've said this before but I LOVE love. And one of the best parts of this job is spending time with so much joy on a regular basis, with couples and family who just radiate their adoration for each other. Rob & Elizabeth embody this joy so perfectly and I spent a gorgeous grey afternoon wandering around the beautiful Roman walls of Chester with them, doing my damndest to bottle it to the very best of my ability.
