Helen & Dan- PreWedding Shoot – Hazlewood Castle

Posted in Pre-Wedding

Just before I went away I met up with Helen & Dan at Hazlewood Castle. This is the venue they are getting married at in October. We had some coffee and chatted about how their preparations were coming along before we headed out to do the pre-wedding shoot. As they are getting married here rather than do the usual Hazlewood locations we went for a walk around the bridle paths and into the woods. Not something I had done before but we found some great locations like the old roller. It would be lovely to bring a bride down here and do some shots. Maybe I  can convince Helen as it will be a beautiful autumnal day when they get married!

Check out the shots here and watch the slideshow to see the rest of the images from the day.

Hannah & Gavin – PreWedding at Saltaire

Posted in Pre-Wedding

Back to the end of April we go and it seems that time is flying this year.  I met up with Hannah and Gavin for their Pre-Wed shoot around Saltaire near Shipley. If you ever get the chance and not made it to this part of the world check out  Salts Mill and the David Hockney gallery 1853. A great place to come and be inspired. So it makes it a great location to take couples and walk along the canal to chat about their wedding plans. Like with all our couples we try and make this process as easy as possible. This usually means starting off with a large coffee or something stronger sometimes! But once we start I find the couples really getting into the pre-wedding shoot and start enjoying it. I have to say with Gavin he was a natural and loved playing up to the camera. We have just covered there wedding last month at the amazing Ripley Castle. It was a great day and made all the more interesting with the guys all wearing black tartan kilts. More of that to follow very soon. But in the meantime enjoy the slideshow below of some more images from their shoot.

Helen & Robert – PreWedding at Dunham Massey

Posted in Pre-Wedding

A very quick post now to show you some pre wedding shoot pictures I took recently. Helen & Robert are getting married this Saturday in the Lake District (we can’t wait!) but we had a relatively last minute pre wedding shoot a couple of weeks ago after we had to postpone their first one due to grim weather. We’d been keeping on eye on the forecast and the first evening that looked promising we made hasty arrangements to meet up.

Helen & Robert chose Dunham Massey for their shoot. It’s a beautiful National trust property just south of Manchester in Cheshire. It’s a beautiful place and we had the park all to ourselves, apart from a few curious deer who wanted a bit of camera time.

We’ve got about a zillion pre-wedding shoots to post up so bear with us and we’ll try and post them up over the next week or so. We’ve got two weddings this weekend, including Helen & Robert’s so we’ll report back next week after those.

Michelle & Richard: Pre-Wedding Shoot Leeds

Posted in Pre-Wedding

A couple of weeks ago I had my first pre-wedding shoot of 2010. Michelle and Richard are a great couple and came out and braved the cold for a shoot around the Holbeck Urban Village area of Leeds. It is a location that has been slowly regenerated and is now starting to be a thriving part of Leeds with its bars, cafes and trendy offices. The businesses around here are focused on creative & digital media and is the location we hold our 3B Media training courses (being cool and trendy ourselves!!). It’s a great location for shoots as it offers the best of both worlds – a little bit country, a little bit rock & roll!

At the start of the shoot I think Richard was a bit unsure of what was going to happen but threw himself into the morning and by the end of the shoot was really enjoying it. The pre-wedding shoot is a good way for me to get to know our clients and find more about their wedding days but also to take the fear out of having their picture taken. Anyway Michelle & Richard’s plans for their wedding seem to moving along apace and we are really looking forward to meeting up with them in August for their wedding at Waterton Park – it sould be a fabulous day.

Check out more of the images in the slideshow at the bottom of the post.

Jedi Knights in training

On Saturday I was asked to do a family shoot for one of our wedding clients from last year. Kate & James were married on August Bank holiday weekend and recently asked me over to do the shoot. We spent the morning doing some great portraits of everybody but things became interesting at the end when James produced 7 proper light sabres. It has to be said in all my time as a photographer this was a first. I will post more images from the shoot later this week but I thought it would be cool to share the one above. Although you probably can’t tell – the room was almost pitch black and the only available light came from the light sabres themselves. Darth Vader if you are watching – you better watch out!
