Donna and Allan are getting married!

Donna and Allan are two of the nicest people you'll ever meet! And I was over the moon when they booked me to shoot their summer Langley Castle wedding.....and then announced they were expecting their first baby! Lots to look forward too! But first the pre wedding shoot and Donna suggested Blyth beach which has undergone a huge transformation over the last few years. It's a great location with some colourful beach huts which make interesting backdrops.

A competition winner...Karen and James

Karen was the lucky winner of a competition in association Brides up North and asked if she could do the shoot in her wedding dress.....well of course! And hubby James came along as a very handsome prop!

For this shoot we travelled to Danby Castle. I suggested this venue as it's a really unique and quirky venue and also very private. I can thoroughly recommend this venue for weddin
gs!

Aiste and Mark's Pre Wedding Shoot

This summer we had the most unpredictable weather and our first attempt to get to the beach was spoiled by the wet weather but our second attempt was so much better! We headed to Tynemouth and it was lovely to spend some time with Aiste and Mark and hear a little more about their Eshott Hall wedding. I was so excited to hear about all the Lithuanian traditions but more about that in another blog post!

Jane and Paul.....married!

Wow what amazing day! From the start you knew this was going to be a fantastic day...Paul turned up in a hip blue suit and pink shirt and another clue was the bright and cheerful order of service. Not even heavy rain could dampen this high spirits on this wedding day and when Jane arrived in her camper van and a beautiful Cymbaline lace gown it was game on! After a beautiful church service the rain decided it had done it's worst and left us with sunshine as we travelled to Hutton Rudby Village Hall. The hall was transformed with an indoor marquee and the decorations were amazing! Jane and Paul had chosen a bright and vibrant colour theme that captured the essence of their honeymoon to California. A surfboard for a table plan was a brilliant idea! As the day turned to night and the first dance got underway, the love between Jane and Paul was clear to see. Magical! x
