The most gorgeous day on Saturday for Maggie & Jack. Starting off at their home just maggie and her mum it was the perfect chilled morning before heading through to Manchester for their ceremony and then walking through town to deaf institute.
They spent a chilled afternoon surrounded by their closest family and friends playing Tetris tumble and darts before heading up for food from chai wala.
A quick turnaround upstairs while evening guests arrived and it was time for the party to start

Yesterday was so much fun for Claire and Toms wedding at Claire’s family farm I left with my cheeks hurting from smiling and laughing so much. The perfect DIY wedding with some delayed results from the Etsy weather witch😅

I had previously met Claire and Tom when I photographed Tom’s sisters wedding 3 years prior so it was so lovely getting to see lots of familiar faces.

Just a photographer standing here telling you having a pre wedding shoot is a great idea.

Getting your photo taken isn’t something you tend to do often so there is usually an element of nerves around the idea. It’s one of the many reasons I love to meet couples before their wedding, 99% of couples I meet tell me they don’t like having their photo taken or feel awkward in front of the camera- trust me you’re not alone! I started taking photos largely to avoid being in them myself.
They are such a great opportunity to get to know one another and let you experience having your photo taken before your wedding to ease any nerves about your wedding photos. Plus we get the chance to meet so you know me when it’s time for me to arrive on the day

I’m a finalist 🧡✨

Thank you so much to everyone who has voted for me so far. If I photographed your wedding between January 2025 and now OR if you are booked in between now and December 2027 you can cast a vote and it’s one vote per person (so 2 votes per couple!)

Link is in my bio to vote and it would mean the world to me. I will never take for granted how lucky I am to turn my hobby into my career and get to attend and document peoples weddings every year so in advance thank you to each and every person that votes and as always a massive thank you for trusting me to photograph your day and booking me 🧡

So good to be back in one of my favourite ever cities yesterday for James & Rheana at love lane brewery in Liverpool… and proof that you can in fact organise a p**s up in a brewery !
A day filled with so many amazing personal touches from garlands & cutouts on the dancefloor of Winnie the cat, paper rings for every guest, hand painted vinyls, first dance sweepstake and so much more. The whole day was so much fun and we even snuck off to seton park as James and Rheana decided to get a mix of city and greenery photos for their portraits and at the end when Rheanas feet began to hurt James gave her a piggyback through the Baltic triangle back to the venue.
But the surprises didn’t end there with Rheanas dad preforming a song just for her and later Rheana jumped on the mic with her dad for a duet.
Huge shoutout to Jenna for being the most amazing second shooter for the day 🧡
