Rowton Castle Wedding of Simon & Kathryn
If I was asked to say why I love shooting weddings then Simon & Kathryn’s wedding would be my reply,why, because it had everything I love about my job. It had a gorgeous bride & groom, a stunning venue, great lighting & lots of old friends whose weddings we have shot over the years & a few we are to shoot. (Kathryn had been a bridesmaid at a few of our previous weddings now it was her turn to be the star)
The stunning Rowton Castle in Shropshire was the venue after a lovely ceremony at Wem parish church ( we arrived just in time for the coffee morning at church… mmm coffee & biscuits)
This was our first visit to Rowton Castle & it’s a gorgeous background for wedding photography but then again as Simon & Kathryn never stopped smiling & are so in love then we really couldn’t go wrong.

Jonathan & Victoria's Wedding at the Uber Chic Stanley House Hotel, Mellor
Well that was Christmas,New Year & even January the last 5 weeks have literally flown, well they do say time flys when your having fun. Jonathan & Victoria’s wedding was our first of 2011 & we seem to have started on a high, with the stunning St Wilfrids Church in Standish & then onto the uber chic Stanley House in Mellor and glamour was the order of the day with Victoria looking stunning (Jonathan scrubed up as well, as we say in the north)
One of the joys of this wedding was meeting up with previous Bride & Grooms & seeing them now complete with kids, how time flys, doesnt seem two minutes since we shot their weddings, and all the guests throwing confetti of the stairs onto the couple……… as we left, Stanley House where still sweeping up the confetti….SORRY, but it was an amazing photo :-)

A Snowy Wedding at the Netherwood Hotel, Grange Over Sands
Happy New year to all our regular & new blog watchers, lets hope 2011 bring more of the fun & great days that 2010 did & what a first posting of an eventful year.
Martin & Caroline’s wedding was at the stunning Netherwood Hotel, Grange Over Sands in the gorgeous Lake District & one of the things I love about weddings in all one place is the relaxed atmosphere that surrounds the day. A crisp snowy day greeted us as we arrived at the hotel as Caroline & her bridesmaids where getting ready & if she had any nerves she never showed them. Martin & Caroline are great hosts & thanks go to their hospitality for a great wedding day.

Rhys & Nicola's wedding at the Tithe Barn, Meols Hall, Southport
For a full week before Rhys & Nicola’s wedding the weather was ‘rather cold’ to say the least, parts of the UK where under inches of snow so we dreaded what the weekend would bring, so waking up to the most gorgeous, sunny & dare I say warm day was a joy. When Jane & I arrived at Nicola’s parents house all I could hear as I rang the door bell was laughing & the laughing never really stopped.
Rhys & Nicola’s wedding was at Meols Hall in Southport, a beautiful venue in a beautiful part of the world, throw in guests who were fun to be around & a couple very much in love & a joy to photograph and you have a very happy photographer.Thanks to Rhys & Nicola for a fantastic day, you guys where great.Dx

Richard & Rebecca's Wedding at Iscoyd Park, Whitchurch
Sometimes you have to go with your instincts & this was the case when Richard & Rebecca first visited Iscoyd Park in Whitchurch as it was literally a building site, since that first visit I have to say it has transformed into a stunning wedding venue. Iscoyd Park has great photo locations, very helpful staff & run by a fantastic couple who just want people to enjoy their day, add to that a great couple who love photography and you have everything you need for the perfect wedding.
This time of the year weddings can be challenging as you have not only the weather & cold to contend with but also the sun goes down very early but on the plus side the lighting & colours are amazing.
I have posted a few more images on our facebook page so why not have a peek

An Autumn Wedding at Farington Lodge,Leyland
I was recently asked when was my favourite time of the year to which I answered ‘Autumn’, but why? Well not only are the colours truly amazing, the lighting gorgeous but I am also a pretty impatient bloke & in autumn you don’t have to wait long for the light to change from sun to sunset,overcast to moody.
Now don’t get me wrong shooting weddings in autumn can be a challenge, but then its challenges that take my photography forward.
Ian & Lorraine’s wedding had the one other thing that makes weddings perfect ‘atmosphere’ and bags of it, starting with an emotional ceremony & ending on a real fun get together with all their friends & family. Their wedding took place at Farington Lodge in Leyland, a venue I hadn’t been for quite a while. The colours in the garden where beautiful & made for a special backdrop for a special day.

Ciaran & Nina's Wedding at Thornton Manor
Ciaran & Nina’s wedding found us back at one of our favourite wedding venues the stunning Thornton Manor. The weather was perfect & Nina, I have to say looked amazing in a gorgeous Jenny Packham dress bringing a tear to everybody’s eyes as she walked into the room for the ceremony. I am asked what makes a great wedding on numerous occasions & every time the answer is the same, it’s the guests, they make the atmosphere and the fun & this was just so on this wedding we really never stopped laughing.
One thing I do love at Thornton Manor is the way the Bride & Groom enter the room to their choice on loud music (this time a Stone Roses classic) it really gets everybody up & cheering. Our coverage ended with great speeches, straight from the heart a lovely way to end a unbelievably good month for Jane & Myself…. Now onto the UK Photographer of the year award ceremony.

Andrew & Heathers Wedding at Soughton Hall
Andrew & Heather where a joy to photograph, why because they knew just how important good images of their wedding are, and boy did they deliver. This was my first visit to Soughton Hall in Northop, and you cant help but fall in love with this stunning venue. The staff, the food, the rooms and that’s before you walk around the gardens, it really is a photographers dream venue.
This wedding was on a high when we arrived & didn’t go any lower it was just a blast from start to finish & had everything (we could even choose the best room to photograph Heather getting ready, how cools that!) all finished off with a amazing light show to really set off this beautiful venue
I hope to be working in the future with this venue & staff & have to say I am really looking forward to it.
Posted a few different images on the Classic Photography Facebook page, be a fan…. You know you want to, if only to have a nosey at what’s happening in the future.
