2018 Wedding Photography Highlights

I cant quite believe we are here again, the beginning of a brand new year, hello 2019!

Okay, so I’m a few days late with my 2018 wedding photography highlights because we started the year with no internet connection in our house! So as well as being late to the game with my 2018 roundup, I’ve not been able to watch the new episode of Luther or find out what all the hype is over Birdbox and Bandersnatch on Netflix! It’s been torture!

2018 completely whizzed by. They do say ‘time flies when you’re having fun’ and that is very true of this year!

2018 has been my busiest year to date in terms of wedding photography and it has been such a great pleasure to look back over the last 12 months and put together this blog post. It is a selection of images from weddings throughout 2018, including lots of my favourite moments, although by no means all! There’s a real mix of all the things I love about shooting weddings; behind the scenes moments, real laughter, dancing, and the connections between family and friends.

I’m so excited for what 2019 has in store for me and my little business. If you are currently on the hunt for a wedding photographer in Manchester, the North West (or anywhere for that matter!) please do drop me a message here. I do still have dates available for 2019 and 2020 is booking up fast!

I would like to say a huge thank you to Roberta and Bronte for shooting with me this year and to all the amazing venues, vendors, planners, designers, florists and videographers who make my job so fun to do.

As ever, the biggest THANK YOU goes to all the amazing couples who have given me the opportunity to capture their memories for them, it has been an absolute pleasure! Lots of love and all the best for the future and here’s to a very happy 2019!

If you like what you see in this blog post and would like to enquire about my availability for your wedding date please drop me a message here!

My 2015 Best Instagram Photos #2015best9

There’s been a  trend sweeping social media for the last few days that involves using software to generate a best 9 list on Instagram. Well here’s mine!

Here is a quick overview of my most liked Instagram photos of 2015, starting at the top left:

1. At the beginning of the year I set up a little workstation in the corner of my bedroom for photo editing and blogging. It served me well but  I’m currently in the process of moving house and shall  have my own little office soon! Not to mention a brand spanking new computer. Very exciting!

2. Like a proud parent I set up this photo back in March to show off my new camera. I’ve been so happy with my Nikon D800 since I got it  and it has accompanied me to every wedding since. This year one of my resolutions is to master it’s video function.

3. A montage of details from Fay and Alex’s gorgeous wedding back in September. You can see more of their wedding here.

4. I decided one afternoon to make a little fort for Graeme and I to hide out in. I was pretty chuffed with it even if it did make me feel like an eight year old.  I think Graeme was secretly impressed too. We ended up eating our dinner in there while watching Age of Adeline before falling asleep. I must say I did wake up with a bad back…I’m not as young as I think I am!

5. This was the awesome breakfast Graeme and I had whilst staying at Roslyn House in Pateley Bridge last September. My goodness it was good! Roslyn House was a lovely B&B too. The owners Judith and Bob made us feel right at home and upgraded our room for us on arrival. I’d highly recommend it for anyone looking for somewhere to stay while exploring the Yorkshire Dales.

6. A lovely photo of Hannah and Paul’s first dance at their wedding at Bolton School last year. Hannah’s dress was just amazing.

7. Same wedding! Graeme doing a sterling job working the Photobooth at the evening reception. Good lad.

8. A snap of the Eiffel Tower from our trip to Paris last April for Mums 50th Birthday. I could go back there time and time again.

9. Working hard in a coffee shop getting Kim and Alex’s wedding images ready. Oh and a sneaky granola square too 😉
