All the World Will be in Love with Night - Victoria Warehouse Wedding Inspiration - Manchester Wedding Photography
What followed was a shoot day of dreams, soundtracked by our usual playlist of 90s hip hop and the R&J soundtrack, a creative bubble of energy and ideas and bonkers design. We work so so beautifully as a team and I can only hope my photos have done all of their incredible, magical, extraordinary work credit.
Naomi & Rob - A Beautiful Love-Filled Spring Wedding at Hyde Bank Farm - Hyde Bank Farm Weddings
Yesterday was a day of love in two parts: a firmly family-focused wedding ceremony at Naomi’s home church in Dukinfield where her own father is vicar - and indeed her sister’s father-in-law shared these duties and performed the marriage service for Naomi & Rob - followed by a big fat friend-filled celebration at the stunning Hyde Bank Farm in Romiley.
Louise & Freddie - A Creative & Elegant King Street Townhouse Wedding - Manchester Wedding Photographer
What followed was yesterday’s glorious Manchester city entre wedding at not one but two iconic spots. There was a lovely and loving ceremony performed by Father Andy at St. Ann’s Church, a triumphant bride and groom emerging to a shower of confetti (and not rain, thankfully though it certainly threatened all day!) and a quick photo tour of Louise & Freddie’s former stomping grounds in Castlefield.

Laura & Luke - A Glorious King Street Townhouse Wedding to Kick off 2023 - Manchester Wedding Photography
And what a day it became! Because not even the odd rain shower interrupted our fun and conveniently even held off whilst we captured confetti and applause and group shots and portraits in front of the iconic King Street Townhouse.
Capturing the In-Between - Why the Candid Moments are Anything but Common - Documentary Wedding Photography
My approach has evolved into somewhere in the in-between - I’m a control freak who will drape your gown perfectly, make sure zippers are zipped, stray hairs are flattened and makeup un-smudged after all those well-wishing hugs.
