Lincolnshire Wedding Photographer at Normanby Hall with Samantha and Kenny

We had a lovely day yesterday, doing the wedding photography for Samantha and Kenny, who were married at Holy Trinity Church in Barrow on Humber, and held their wedding reception at Normanby Hall. The day started bright and early with Samantha and her bridesmaids Karen, Linsey and Inessa and little flower girl Taylen. Samantha was ready early for us which gave us some time to do her bridal portraits outside in the garden. The theme for the wedding was woodland fairies, and in keeping with this, the bride walked barefoot down the aisle to meet her groom Kenny, who looked very handsome in his army uniform. Samantha arrived at church in the car which originally belonged to her grandad, but was driven by Uncle Jason who also gave her away. The happy couple excited the church to the sound of the bells and following the group photographs, everyone headed off to Normanby Hall for a celebratory drink. Our portraits of the couple were done during a brief walk around the gorgeous gardens at Normanby Hall, and as always our time with them was brief and we had to return them to their family and friends. Samantha and Kenny are a lovely couple and we wish them every happiness in their life together and look forward to sharing their full collection of wedding photographs with them.

Wedding photography at the Mercure Grange with Hayley and Gareth

We had a wonderful day yesterday photographing the wedding of Hayley and Gareth at the Mercure Grange Hotel, in Willerby. We started the day at the brides parents house and were made very welcome by Ann and Kevin. The girls were busy getting ready and we got on with our shots of all of the carefully selected detail. Ann almost wore herself out before the day started, running up and down the stairs and making sure everyone had what they needed. Hayley looked stunning in her dress from Confetti and Lace in Leeds and her look was completed with the gorgeous flowers from Bo’Kay’s. Bridemaids, Clairm Natalie, Ellen, Lauren, Rachale, Mia, Ameira and Iyla looked so pretty in their dresses and the little ones had lots of fun pulling up grandmas plants in the garden and attacking grandads shed! We met up with Gareth, and his groomsmen at the hotel and quickly completed their portraits whilst guests began to arrive. The ceremony was soon underway and afterwards the happy couple enjoyed a celebratory drink with friends and family. We were a little pushed for time yesterday which meant that we had to crack on and get the formal group photographs done quickly. This was a bit of a challenge with the little flower girls who just wanted to play about and have fun! We had a lovely chat with Gareth’s Uncle John who had flown all the way from Australia the day before. After the meal Hayley and Gareth came outside and we had a quick twenty minutes within which to do their couple portraits. We had a great day working on this wedding and we wish Hayley and Gareth every happiness together in the future.

Hull Wedding Photographer at Rudstone Walk with Kerry & Dave

I am delighted to share the the photography from our pre wedding photoshoot with Kerry and Dave who are getting married at Rudstone Walk, in May. Before we headed out into the freezing wind (and well done Kerry for braving it!) we had a lovely cup of tea and a chat inside. Rudstone Walk is a really great venue and they made us all very welcome, whilst we talked through the arrangements and had a peep at the ceremony room, with its lovely large windows, which will provide lots of natural light for our photography. Kerry and Dave have opted for an intimate group of close family and friends and I am sure that it will be an absolutely delightful wedding to photograph. The location of Rudstone Walk is just gorgeous and provides some really great opportunities for wedding photography. Kerry and Dave are a lovely couple and were very easy and relaxed in front of the camera and we are very much looking forward to photographing their wedding day.

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

I am delighted to share with you the preview wedding photography for Shell and Mark who were married yesterday, at the Ashbourne Hotel, North Killingholme, Lincolnshire. We started the day bright and early with our usual bridal preparation photography. Kim Marrison did Shell’s hair and make up was done by Justine Buttner, and she looked amazing in her bespoke dress from Joanna Lee Couture in Brigg. The bridesmaids looked lovely in their periwinkle dresses that were complimented by the beautiful flowers from Fairytales of Grimsby. Mark and his groomsmen looked smart in their suits from Slaters and the venue was decorated by Fairytales and looked totally stunning. Mommas Little Bakehouse supplied the wedding cake and the the theme for the day was influenced by the couples love of walking. It was a really challenging day weather wise, and we experienced everything from rain and wind, to sunshine and hailstones. The group photographs were particularly difficult as we had to keep running inside to avoid the rain showers! We had just got everyone in place for the big group shot, when the heavens opened once again and everyone dashed indoors! Shell and Mark are a great couple and were fantastic braving the elements to get their photographs. We had a wonderful day with them and their family and friends and I look forward to sharing the rest of their wedding photographs with them soon.

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.
