I photographed and organised a styled shoot at the new Manchester wedding venue, Fairfield Social Club. For this shoot, I wanted to create a fashion-forward look inspired by Miami Vice colours and an 80s prom aesthetic. To bring my vision to life, I rented a beautiful 80s reworked vintage Laura Ashley dress from Loanhood. I also had two stunning models from Vauhaus agency showcase the looks. Amy & Abbey did colourful make up whilst switching up the looks during the shoot. One of the dresses, worn by Nicole, featured big tulle sleeves and was from Sarah Jane at ASOS. The colourful flowers ..read more

I recently had the pleasure of capturing an intimate wedding at Manchester Art Gallery. The two grooms exchanged vows in the Lowry room, surrounded by beautiful artwork. We took stunning photos under the art pieces and had a lovely drinks reception among the sculptures. Alex and Giacomo found and booked me in January 2023 at The Alternative Wedding Fair at Grub. Family portraits were taken in front of paintings, adding a personal touch to the photos. The ceremony was made even more special with a performance by their friend Claudia, who sang the first dance as the whole atrium danced along ..read more

Ruby & Patrick's Wedding at Mitton Hall in Clitheroe was a unique and special event. Due to some logistical reasons, they had to get married earlier than planned so that the registrars could leave. However, they recreated the ceremony later to make it official. For this wedding, I had the talented second shooter Lucy assisting me. Together, we captured the beautiful moments of Ruby & Patrick's big day using Lomo purple film in my trusty Olympus MJU 1 camera. Despite the weather forecast predicting cold and rain, it turned out to be a stunning sunny day. We took advantage of this unex ..read more

I recently had the amazing opportunity to exhibit at Grub wedding fair alongside many other suppliers. It was such a fantastic day filled with gorge food and organised by my friend Clarissa, whose business name is Grace In Spring Weddings.

My stand showcased my wedding magazine, stunning images, as well as large prints and even my collection of polaroids. This wasn't my first time participating in this wedding fair. In fact, I had taken part in it last ye ..read more

I absolutely love shooting city centre weddings! They have a unique vibe that is both low-key and stylish. These weddings are usually smaller, which allows for a more creative experience. Plus, they often have a lower budget, which encourages out-of-the-box thinking. One of the things I enjoy most about shooting city centre weddings is the contrast between the streets and the couples. It adds an interesting element to the images and brings them to life. I love finding creative ways to incorporate the urban landscape and architecture into my shots, particularly when using film. There's somethi ..read more

I’m loving the polaroids I’ve taken recently and wanted to show some I have taken recently, specifically Polaroid photos taken at Manchester weddings.     Here's why I shoot polaroids at weddings: 1. Nostalgia and Timelessness: Polaroids evoke a sense of nostalgia and timelessness that digital photos can't always replicate. Each polaroid carries a unique charm that instantly transports you back to the moment it was taken. 2. Instant Gratification: One of the joys of polaroid photography is the instant gratification it provides. It adds an element of excitement and immediacy to the w ..read more
