Hull Wedding Photographer with Helen & Robert in North Cliffe

I am delighted to share with you the preview wedding photography for Helen and Robert who were married yesterday at North Cliffe Church. We started the day at Helen’s parents home and were made very welcome by John and Tina. Helen’s hair and make up looked lovely and had been done by Topaz in Market Weighton. Shortly after our arrival, the bride was helped into her gorgeous dress from Brides of York, as always the buttons and the loops proved a little challenging, but mum Tina proved to be the expert, and Helen was soon ready for us to do our pre wedding bridal portraits. Robert was waiting for us at the church with best man Oli, and ushers Rich and Roddy, and we quickly completed some shots of the boys. Guests soon began to arrive and finally we awaiting the bride with her father. The vicar delivered a really lovely service, some friendly advice for the couple, and his own little piece of magic with some polo mints! Following the service the happy couple headed off for a drive in their VW camper van from the Yorkshire Wedding Car Company. Our brief for photography for this wedding was to keep things as free flowing and natural as possible and where possible to keep the shots candid rather than formal and posed. Helen and Robert chose not to have the formal groupings which free up them and their guests to just enjoy the day. The marque was filled with music and guests chatted happily whilst enjoying celebratory drinks and sea side themed canapes. Speeches proceeded the meal to much applause and laughter and the guests were entertained by a magician. Helen and Robert are a really lovely couple and were very relaxed and natural with one another, and this came through in their photographs together. We wish them every happiness and look forward to sharing the rest of their wedding photography with them.

East Yorkshire Wedding Photographer at North Cliffe, with Helen and Robert

We had a lovely time on Sunday morning doing the pre wedding photography for Helen and Robert who are getting married at the beginning of April. We met up with them at the church, and had a quick chat with the vicar, before heading back to the farm to go over the arrangements for the big day. Helen and Robert’s marquee will be provided by All Occasions and our brief for the day is to focus on candid photography. With a very short list of formal groups, this will leave us to capture the day as it unfolds, and will mean that the couple can enjoy more time with their guests, rather than standing in a line for lots of posed pictures! Helen and Robert are a lovely couple and are very relaxed with one another, and this comes across on camera. We are very much looking forward to photographing their wedding.

Hull Wedding Photographer at the Ashbourne Hotel, North Lincolnshire with Shell & Mar

I am pleased to share with you the pre wedding photography for Shell and Mark, who are getting married at the Ashbourne Hotel, North Lincolnshire in April. We had a really lovely afternoon with Shell and Mark, which included a brief stroll in the surrounding lanes whilst we chatted about their big day. The Ashbourne Hotel is very chic and stylish, and the surrounding area provides some interesting and unusual backdrops for wedding photography. It is always good to get away from a traditional setting and to work with something a little bit different. the photography from this shoot will give a little insight into some of the things we are hoping to achieve for Shell and Mark on their wedding day. We are certainly looking forward to it!

Hull, East Yorkshire & Lincolnshire Wedding Photographer – BIPP Associate Panel

Last year, I was delighted to put together a set of wedding photographs that formed my qualifying submission to the British Institute of Professional Photography (BIPP). BIPP is an internationally recognised organisation with qualifications that offer a benchmark for excellence for professional photographers. Each qualification represents a level of expertise, skill and achievement in a given field. There are three levels of qualification each reflecting an increased level of experience and ability; Licentiate, Associate and Fellowship. I joined in 2014 as a provisional member with a requirement to submit a successful, qualifying portfolio within twelve months. The submission required a minimum of 25 images that had been taken at real weddings, with real fee paying clients. With the support of my mentor Kevin Wilson, the cooperation of my clients, and after a great deal of hard work, my panel was ready for submission early 2015. To my surprise and joy, I was awarded the Associate level! I share with you here, the images that achieved the Associate qualification in wedding photography. My thanks to the couples, throughout Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, who choose me for their wedding photography as without them I would not have been able to put together this panel of wedding photography. I am now working towards achieving the Fellowship, one of the most coveted qualifications in wedding photography.

Hull Wedding Photographer at Lazaat with Benna & Alex

I am delighted to share with you the pre wedding photography, for Benna and Alex, who are getting married at Lazaat, Cottingham, in March. We had a lovely, bright spring morning for our photography session and here’s hoping that the sun shines just as brightly on their wedding day. It was great to chat with them about their plans and they were very relaxed in front of the camera. I am really looking forward to what will be the first wedding of the 2016 season. We couldn’t have asked for a more lovely couple to start the season with!
