Had a fantastic time with Katie & Aidan on Easter Saturday for their pre-wedding shoot.  As they both live in London but are coming home to good old Yorkshire to tie the knot we agreed on the very lovely Brimham Rocks which is situated near Harrogate as a location.  I loved the contrast of the rugged rocks against Katie & Aidan’s very funky outfits – love love love the polka dot dress !!

As well as spend a bit of time in front of the camera in preparation for the big day, Katie & Aidan were also keen to capture an image to use for their wedding invitations.  We were so so lucky with the weather and although wellies and umbrellas were needed from time to time we were rewarded with some stunning light to work with.  Other hazards included Easter egg hunters as it was full on Easter Action across the park!

Katie & Aidan’s big day is in September and I can’t wait – it’s going to be a lovely marquee reception with tons of personal touches.  I’m also looking forward to meeting Aidan’s sister – the very talented Sinead Jenkins who lives in New Zealand.  I’m very honoured that Sinead has trusted her little bro’s big day to me!  I’m going to have the same issue next September when my brother-in-law will be tieing the knot – it’ll be really hard to not have camera in hand but sometimes the experience of being there and taking part is just all too important….

I’m always so envious of all those lucky photographers in California who seem to have the most stunning backdrops to work with – lovely beaches with never ending blue skies.  So to prove we’re just as lucky here in freezing cold Yorkshire I’m sharing a few of my favourite images from a pre-wedding shoot I did last weekend for Charlotte & Nick at Cayton Bay near Scarborough.  We timed it perfectly just as the sun was going down and were rewarded with some gorgeous dusky light.   It was fantastic to spend some time with Charlotte & Nick as well as Charlotte’s parents and can’t wait for their wedding late December at Middlethorpe Hall in York.  It was an absolute pleasure to also meet Alfie the dog who took a rather starring role in the shoot due to his amazing jumping skills!
