Pre wedding photography at Tickton Grange with Hannah and Ben

We had a lovely time yesterday doing the pre wedding photography with Hannah and Ben, at Tickton Grange, near Beverley. When we arrived, the sun had put in a brief appearance, so we headed straight outside to do the photoshoot. Afterwards, we enjoyed a cup of tea whilst chatting about the arrangements for the wedding. I have know Ben since he was a baby and this wedding is extra special for us as Ben was part of our family for many years, being close buddies with our son Alex whilst they were growing up. Hannah and Ben are a lovely couple (and I am biased!). We are so looking forward to their extra special day!

Preview wedding photography with Alison & Jason at Tickton Grange – Beverley – East Yorkshire

I am delighted to share the preview wedding photography for Alison and Jason, who were married on Sunday, at Tickton Grange, near Beverley, East Yorkshire. We started the day at the brides house and Alison was busy getting ready with bridesmaids Andrea, Sarah, Amelia, Carolyne, Mandi, Sinead and Neve. The girls looked lovely in their pale pink dresses and chatted happily whilst attending to the finishing touches. After some quick portraits of the bride, we headed out to Tickton Grange to meet up with Jason of do some quick photographs of him outside before he headed in to see the registrar. Before long the bride arrived with her sons Adam and Nathan and the service was underway. Sister in law Tracy delivered the lovely reading and the happy couple signed the register, before the traditional aisle procession. There was a brief downpour which interrupted the group photographs so the bridal party dashed inside to take shelter. Celebratory drinks followed, before we were able to go back outside to complete the photographs. Portraits of the happy couple followed, before everyone went inside for the wedding breakfast. The bridesmaids made a speech before family and friends toasted the health and happiness of the couple. We had an amazing day with Alison and Jason and are very much looking forward to sharing the rest of their wedding photography with them.

Preview Wedding Photography with Rebecca & Matthew in Elloughton

Congratulations to Rebecca and Matthew who were married on Saturday, at Mary’s Church, in Elloughton. We started the day with Rebecca and her ten bridesmaids, at her parents house. After photographing the all important details, we headed out into the garden to get some quick photographs of the bride, before we left to meet Matthew at the church. Unfortunately there was a heavy shower just as we arrived at church. Fortunately we were able to stand Matthew and his dad Martin, who was also best man, the doorway of the church whilst we braved the elements to get the shot. Before long, the rain stopped and the guests started to arrive. As the bride arrived the sun came and we were were able to get some photographs of her with her father before they headed inside. The service was conducted by the brides uncle Paul and following the ceremony, the choir sang three songs starting with ‘from this Moment’. Afterwards we headed outside for the all important family photos. Unfortunately, time was in very short supply, as the couple had to be at Lazaat for the wedding breakfast within the hour,  so we had to work super quick to get everything done. We had a lovely day with Rebecca and Matthew and wish them every happiness in their future life together.

Hull Wedding Photographer at the Millhouse, Skidby with Lora & Dudley

Lora and Dudley were married on Saturday at the Millhouse Restaurant, Skidby. We had a wonderful day photographing their wedding. We started the day with Lora and her bridesmaids Becky, Lisa, Sophie, Tilly and Kylie who were all getting ready at the Mercure Grange Hotel, in Willerby, before heading out to meet Dudley and his groomsmen Clark, Loyd, Dan, Mark and Danny. After some quick portraits, the guests began to arrive and were whisked inside, before the bride arrived with her father, on a horse drawn carriage. There was much laughter during the service with both of the couples names providing a bit of a challenge and afterwards the guests enjoyed a celebratory drink, whilst the happy couple headed off for a romantic drive with a glass of champagne. As always, we whipped through the group photographs as quickly as possible, so that the couple could enjoy as much time as possible with their guests. A big thanks to the bridesmaids and the groomsmen who were great sports and very helpful rounding everyone on in super quick time. There was a huge cheer during the wedding breakfast, following by a chorus of ‘Old Faithful’ to celebrate the rugby result, after which the speeches commenced. The grooms brother Clark delivered a very entertaining and perfectly judged speech, with humour  and a touch of emotion. The evening reception was soon underway with more guests arriving and the couple took to the sparkling dance floor for their first dance. We had a truly wonderful day with Lora, Dudley and their family and friends, and we will them all every happiness in the future.

Wedding Photography with Kelly and Richard

I am pleased to share the preview wedding photography for Kelly and Richard who were married on Friday, at St Swithins Church in Sproately. We had a lovely day with them and their family and friends. Kelly looked beautiful and elegant in her dress from Jaynes of Doncaster and Richards suit was from T M Lewis. The were attended by bridesmaid Lucy who was great fun and a fantastic help throughout the day and best man Fred. Flowers were by the Daisy Chain, Skirlaugh and the cake was made for them by Boucakez of Preston. Our thanks to the vicar Jon, who is always so welcoming and makes our job so much easier. The weather was mostly on our side, though the wind played havoc with Kelly’s dress and veil! Just as we arrived at Wyton Abbey, there was a rumble of thunder and the heavens briefly opened! Bright summer sunshine soon followed and we were able to complete the photographs as planned outside. Kelly and Richard very much wanted their wedding photography to be as informal as possible and we had a lot of laughs during the photos of the bridal party. Guests enjoyed a celebratory drink and canapés before dinner and when they sat down to eat, we took a much needed break. The evening celebrations were soon underway and the happy couple took to the floor with their headphones for the ‘silent disco’. I have to say it was quite a surreal experience photographing everyone dancing when we couldn’t hear the music but it did make us chuckle!  Kelly and Richard are a really lovely couple and it was evident to everyone how much they love each other. We wish them every happiness in their future life together.
