Stace and Luke got married last summer at the lovely The Mere Golf & Spa, which is an elegant venue in Knutsford. They had their ceremony at St. Mary's & St. John's in Newton-le-Willows, which was just a short drive away.
Read MoreOctober wedding? TICK! October wedding in an iconic stately home?? DOUBLE TICK! October wedding in an iconic stately home, accented with sumptuous jewel tones, daschund references, a jaw-dropping Pronovias off-shoulder gown and some of the MOST hilarious and fun bridal party members?? THIS WEDDING WAS THE DREAM!!
Read MoreSteph & Darren's beautiful Delamere Manor wedding was the perfect example of an English garden party wedding, set on the rolling green hills of the STUNNING Delamere Manor estate (fun fact: it's also Gary Barlow's former home!). There were lawn games and tree swings and a stretch of incredibly moving (and hilarious) speeches in the glassed-in courtyard reception space under a jaw-dropping greenery-dripped floral chandelier by the geniuses at Hayley's Flower Studio.
Read MoreThe WONDERFUL Chantelle and Simon were the first of my 2017 couples to take me up on this crazy add-on service. Chantelle is herself a keen photographer and lover of all vintage and they were so excited for the possibility of film and showing off another perspective of the big day. After an absolute nightmare just five days before their wedding that neccessitated a last minute venue change - yes really! - my second shooter Jenn and I arrived at the beautifully classic Leigh Town Hall for a (very warm!) early summer family-filled ceremony.
Read MoreWHAT A YEAR. Honestly, what an unbelievable way to spend 12 months: hanging out with wonderfully warm and fun couples in beautiful environments and capturing some of their most precious memories.

Victoria Warehouse, just over the bridge in Salford, first hooked me when I was lucky enough to use the space for a styled shoot in collaboration with One Stylish Day (you can check that out here). I was so so eager to have the chance to shoot a real wedding there so imagine how thrilled I was when the WONDERFUL Jenna & Kris got in touch with me about their upcoming wedding. Their plan was to have the whole day there, to really show off and celebrate this industrial Manchester gem of a venue and to throw a big silly party with all of their friends and family.
Read MoreThe WONDERFULLY sweet Claire & Michael got in touch with me just 7 WEEKS before their wedding day after booking (then cancelling) the big wedding next spring. Instead these two lovebirds opted for a VERY intimate (we're talking 20 people!) family-focused ceremony on the bandstand of the beautifully vintage Buxton Pavilion Gardens, just on the edge of the Peak District. With a simple hearfelt civil ceremony and just those closest to them present, there wasn't a dry eye in sight (including my own!).
