Cassandra & Michael at Mecure Hotel Bradford

Cassandra & Michael chose to get married at this lovely hotel which has a Gothic feel to the exterior.  The weather was a bit mixed, but did not spoil the day at all.  With a very nervous Michael and emotional Cassandra, tears of joy were spilled during the service, even their daughter was in crying as well (this does not bode well for me as I tend to join in with tears at a given chance).  Afterwards Cassandra & her Matron of Honour were up for a bit fun with a very funny leaping shot.  After the wedding breakfast, we managed to get outside to do some romantic shots in the grounds, before Casino & Cocktail Hour.  It was a very relaxed wedding and everybody seemed to have fun, when I left the party was in full swing.















Rebecca & Luke - The Pastures at Tong

Rebecca and Luke wanted an element of fun on their special day.  So that is what we got with some great shots, along with some more romantic ones as well.  First of all the day got off to an early start at Rebecca's mums, which was full of bridesmaids all dressed in their special dressing gowns and slippers. It was a very girlie affair indeed, with champagne flowing, there was also fun and laughter. I then met up with the boys at the church in Batley - the vicar was kind enough to let us use the vicarage gardens to do the photographs, so we started with some fun shots with the boys leaping and being generally relaxed.  The church is beautiful inside and after the service we went back in to do some shots at the alter which is absolutely stunning. Afterwards we met up at the venue and got the fun shots in the bag, then we got the romantic ones as well. I know that Rebecca & Luke really enjoyed their day and by the comments I have seen, so did their guests. Just look at the shots below and see what fun we had..............

Andrea & Stuart - Chevin Country Park Hotel

Last week I bobbed over too one of my favourite venues Chevin Country Park Hotel to catch up with Andrea and Stuart, who are getting married there later this month.  They are really looking forward to their wedding at this beautiful venue, with it's fantastic grounds and a lovely lake as a backdrop.  Usually the weddings I have photographed here have been very relaxed in such a wonderful atmosphere.  We had a wander around the lake to capture some shots, having a good laugh along the way. So hopefully the sun will also shine on their wedding day which we are all looking forward too.

Funki Foto Fun with Becky and Luke

On Saturday, we had a fun day at Becky & Luke's Wedding, with some great shots to come later.  After the first dance it was party time and what better to get the ball rolling with  Funki Foto Fun.  Becky told me that her girls loved being photographed and she was not wrong.  They are crazy bunch indeed and did not take any to persuading have a go. In fact it was Becky's idea to do a photobooth so I have her to thank for putting the idea in my head in the first place. Even the children got in on the act, with little Chester who was cute enough for me to give away one of my props, a little toy gun, apparently he was so pleased he took it too bed with him. The FFF was so  funny with some shots that were a little naughty too put on here.  However the masks are a little surreal especially, when you have Mr Bean, Simon Cowell and the Queen in the same shot, spooky..........................
