JOSIE & BRUCE’S SLEDMERE HOUSE, DRIFFIELD WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY BLOG.

From the first moment we met a year ago we knew this was going to be one amazing wedding. Josie and Bruce knew exactly what they wanted from their wedding day and were prepared to put in the hard work to make it fantastic……and they certainly pulled it off.

They were to be married in the most amazing of venues, Sledmere House in Driffield East Yorkshire. The ceremony was to be held in the main Sledmere House then over the road to the barn for the wedding breakfast and evening reception. We were shown pictures of the barn before Josie and Bruce had put their mark on the place and to say they had their work cut out would be an understatement but in line with there vision and excitement they turned the place into something unforgettable.

We first met with Josie in her bridal preps. Always unsure how nervous a bride may be, we were met with a very calm and excited Josie. Herself and her bridesmaids getting their final hair and makeup touches done while we shot away capturing some natural moments.

We had news that the boys had arrived so we shot over to get some great groomsman pics.Again all the groomsmen were in great spirits and it was great to meet them all. The wind was blowing a little heavy at this point but the skies were clearing. Today was going to be a good day!

Before we knew it, it was almost time for the ceremony. Guests were arriving and all systems were go. Bruce had the usual slight apprehensive look upon his face as he stood at the front of the ceremony room but as soon as he saw his wife to be, you could see him relax instantly.

The ceremony went without a hitch, apart from the “awful husband” incident!! but this only fuelled what was to be a great light hearted day. Leaving the ceremony room as husband and wife, in true Sledmere House tradition the confetti fell over them as they walked hand in hand down the beautiful staircase.

After group shots and making sure we got them some amazing bride and groom photography everyone headed over to the barn for the wedding breakfast and speeches.

The evening went perfect with the cutting of the cake and a first dance followed by the most amazing dance show.

So as we fully expected, Josie & Bruce pulled it off. One amazing day was had by everyone and we would like to thank Josie and Bruce for making us feel so welcome. Big congratulations to you both and we can’t wait to see you both to get your album designed.

Emily & Kingsleys Wedding Blog. Ryther Church, Yorkshire.

So last Saturday saw us shooting Emily & Kingsley’s wedding at Ryther Church, Yorkshire. The rest of the week had been pretty decent weather wise but the forecast didn’t look too good for the day. Between heavy rain and strong winds were periods of blue sky and sun….very mixed. Taking this into consideration as we first met with Emily at her parents house for the bridal preps it was clear that the weather was just a minor issue and the real focus of the day was her marriage to Kingsley. We’ve known Emily & Kingsley for a few years and know what they mean to each other. A perfect match for a perfect couple.

In the ample garden a beautiful tipi decorated to perfection stood with room for many guests, a bar and of course a dance floor with the biggest disco ball we’ve ever seen. They had gone for a vintage rustic theme which suited them perfectly.

As the morning drew on it was time for Emily to put on her beautiful dress which was hand made by her mum. The perfect style for Emily and we were sure Kingsley was going to be amazed.

As a little {big} surprise Emily’s parents had organised a horse drawn carriage for her to arrive in at the church. Fingers crossed it wasn’t going to rain now as the journey was going to take a good 20 minutes to get there.

We headed off to the church to see Kingsley for the first time that day as was met with a beaming smile and someone who couldn’t wait to see his bride. After a few groom and groomsmen shots we could see the horse and carriage heading down the quaint lane. Finally the ceremony was here and it went perfectly. Guest, family and friends all smiling to see the new happy couple.

It was time to head back to Emily’s parents house for their barbecued tipi wedding breakfast, speeches and an evening for relaxing and catching up with family and friends. A brilliant end to a brilliant day.

We would both like to wish Emily & Kingsley all the best and a big congratulations again. Thank you for looking after us.

Larah & James’ Walled Garden, Nottingham Wedding Photography Blog.

After meeting Larah and James earlier in the summer for an amazing engagement shoot in the Peak District, Derbyshire this was a wedding we were super excited about shooting!

We headed over to Larah’s parents house in Nottingham to begin the day’s bridal preps. We were greeted with a warm, friendly welcome by the bridal party. The house was beautiful and perfect for the bridal preps.

We then made our way to the venue. The Walled Garden, Nottingham. This little gem is such a stunning place and suited Larah and James’s style just perfectly. The ceremony was lovely and our new Mr and Mrs were beaming. We spent plenty of time in the grounds which are completely private and so extensive. A true photographers dream! A little bit of wind and rain didn’t seem to dampen anyone’s spirits.

We were treated to a wonderful show performance by mind reader ‘Looch’ who wowed everyone.

As the evening came in we headed outside for a mini night shoot, captured the first dance and left our bride and groom to party the night away.

Congratulations Mr and Mrs Hogg – Thank you for making us feel so welcome at your wedding.

Helen & Simon, Hazlewood Castle Wedding Photography.

Hello All.

November saw us shooting at Hazlewood Castle near York. An overcast cold day provided a moody backdrop to one of Yorkshires most romantic wedding venues.

Helen & Simon had an amazing day planned and included an evening surprise for their guests.

We started off our day with Helen for her bridal preps. Her gorgeous dress hung on the mirror was all we needed to start our detailed shots. All bridesmaids were ready for action and did a great job of keeping Helen calm. As well as the bridal preps we also visited the grooms room to also get some boys preps. The dress reveal to the father of the bride was soon to follow which gave some great shots on the antique staircase. A pre-planned holding of hands round a corner  proved to be a magical moment. All silent with grinning from ear to ear from both bride and groom.

The ceremony included all of around 20 guests in one of Hazlewood Castles most magical rooms. A reading from their little boy Alfie was perfect too.

After the ceremony we managed a great confetti shot in front of the main building then off for the bride and grooms personal images. Although cold and windy the excitement still grew for the chance to create some great memories for them both.

After speeches and cake cutting it was time to welcome their evening guests for their evening blessing which was to take place in Hazlewood Castles very own adjoined chapel at 19:15.

With over a hundred evening guests having arrived the blessing went with a bang. An amazing vicar gave us the run of the chapel to shoot as we wished, even calling us to the very front to make sure we got the kissing shot.

The rest of the night was perfect and we both would like to wish Helen & Simon all the best for their future and a big thank you for making us feel so welcome all day.

Congratulations to you both.

We awoke bright and early on Saturday morning to sunny skies and no sign of rain! What a fantastic start for today’s wedding with Mark and Win at The Rutland Hotel, Sheffield, South Yorkshire,

We had both been looking forward to today as the bride and groom are purely fantastic and very welcoming.

We arrived at The Rutland, Sheffield to be greeted by Win our lovely bride with her fantastic smile and jolly, enthusiastic welcome.

We headed up to the bridal suite where we shot all the detail shots in a very calm and relaxed environment. This was a sign of the day to come! Such a chilled out bride and groom!

As the ceremony approached the guests arrived and filled the venue with smiles a plenty. The service was lovely and it was a pleasure to photograph such a fantastic occasion.

We were lucky to shoot all the requested group shots outside at The Rutland in the lovely, well kept garden. We couldn’t resit a walk to the Botanical Gardens, Sheffield to get some extra special shots of the bridal party and Bride and Groom.

We ventured back to The Rutland, Sheffield so the bride and groom could relax with there loved ones while we planned some more special shots for later!

We spent more time in the beautiful grounds of the Rutland Hotel to finish off our already stunning selection of personal shots followed by the cutting of the cake and first dance,

Monica & Shaun’s Wedding Photography at Wortley Hall Rotherham/ Sheffield/Barnsley.

Hi again.

Having a bit of spare time so getting the blog posts out there while we can.

Monica and Shaun’s wedding started of in Huddersfield at Shaun’s house where the bride and groom were divided between their house and the next doors. This did need a slight bit of caution to make sure they didn’t see each other but all worked out well.

Monica was cool as a cucumber all morning while she prepared with her friends who were mostly from her homeland of the Philippines. Her bridesmaids had made the journey over as well as her parents for her big day. Also to mention her friend from Germany who kept us amused most of the morning, thanks Jan!

After the bridal preps its was off to Wortley hall in Sheffield to get started with some wedding photography.

We shoot many weddings at Wortlet Hall and every time its a delight with an amazing building and stunning grounds.

The day went as planned and as you will see below we managed to get some great shots for the bride and groom, especially for their personal shots.

As mentioned, we have shot many weddings at Wortley Hall and have a section on our website with its own gallery.

We are Wortley Hall’s recommended photographers so get in touch if you are planning your wedding there.

Thanks for taking the time to view and read.

Chloe & Joe’s Worksop/Retford Wedding, West Retford Hotel Wedding Photography.

Chloe & Joe’s wedding at the West Retford Hotel.

Amazing day for some wedding photography! For what seems like a bit of a rubbish start to our English summer we have had some tremendous luck when it comes to weather. It seems as though the weather knows. When every day of the week has been pretty shocking, it just so happens that on the couples big day, the sun shows its face. Chloe and Joe’s was no exception.

Starting of with the bridal preps just outside Worksop we we’re welcomed to a calm and relaxed house to which would be the story of the day. A laid back atmosphere and a more than willing bride and groom gave the chance for some great photography.

Married in Worksop church then off to the West Retford Hotel to finish off the day. We’ve never done any photography at the West Retford Hotel before but we were in for a treat! The stunning layout of the ground meant endless possibilities for the day and night.

This is the result!

Hope you like.
