Becky & Jim's Wedding

Valentines day, with snow on the ground...it was a beautiful day to get married. Becky and Jim's wedding at Beamish Hall was gorgeous.
It was also Jim's birthday and Becky organised a surprise Ferrari to bring him and his best men down to Beamish. They certainly arrived in style.
I hope the two of you are enjoying a fantastic honeymoon!

What a great idea..

I have now done my first 'shoe portrait'. It was the brilliant idea of Archie's mum (who I photographed for his first birthday last year). Not just any shoes..but Archie's first pair of shoes, which are now well and truly worn in and outgrown. We did it in order to produce a canvas as a surprise for Archie's dad's birthday. It worked really well and I love the idea of a portrait not even needing the person in the photograph.

Chancer's Portrait

I think there must be few things better in life than riding a horse on the beach. Druridge Bay was a perfect setting for Chancer's portrait session, and it was great to capture the two of them doing what they both love. You wouldn't guess that Chancer is 19...with such a spring in his step, but I could tell that these two are old pals and it was a real pleasure for me to photograph them both.

Leigh & Nick's Wedding

After their December wedding in Barbados, Slaley Hall in January was quite a contrast for Leigh & Nick's wedding party. It was a real wintery day, but Leigh & Nick and all the family braved it for some photographs...and it was well worth it.
I had a great day with them and was made to feel like one of the guests...so thank you to you two for making my job all the more enjoyable.

Becky & Jim's Portrait

It was a beautiful crisp January day for Becky & Jim's portrait session on the Quayside. We'll definately be hoping for similar weather on their wedding day in February.

Amelia's Portrait

I did Amelia's portrait session before Christmas, but as it was done as a surprise for her Mum I've saved them until now to post on here.
What a delightful little girl...and an absolute pleasure to photograph.

Leigh & Nick's Portrait

Leigh and Nick have recently returned from their wedding in Barbados. Although I would have loved to have been with them in Barbados, I will instead be photographing their wedding celebration over here in the New year. This was their portrait session in preparation.
