Riva and Mabel's Christening at St. Margaret's Church in Brotton with Father Jonathan was a heartwarming event that unfolded on a tranquil Sunday morning.

The historic church, steeped in centuries of stories, set the perfect backdrop for this sacred occasion. Father Jonathan presided over the ceremony with a blend of grace and reverence, leading the attendees through the rituals of baptism while hymns filled the air, infusing the atmosphere with a sense of sanctity.

Is there anything more magical than a seaside wedding? The salty breeze, the sound of crashing waves, and the picturesque backdrop of the coastline all add up to create the perfect setting for a truly unforgettable celebration. And that is precisely what took place when Gary and Ruth tied the knot at the stunning Crown Spa Hotel in Scarborough.

I love capturing family portrait photography, The North East has some wonderful locations to capture children, families in front of the camera. I find locations shoots so much relaxed and because of that the images I capture look so much more natural. I always feel happy knowing I can let the children be themselves, play and run around.

Another local and favourite venue of mine, do I have any other venue? What can I say, I’m passionate about my profession and love working everywhere I capture weddings. Mark and Joanne’s wedding at Gisborough Hall was special to me. I’ve worked with Joanne for some years as a model and commercially for her work too.

For me, capturing wedding is about capturing emotion. That emotion cam be captured in a variety of ways, between guests, between guest and the bride and groom, children having fun but more importantly between the bride and groom. This can be affected by lots of factors, nerves, stress of the day but I’m always hoping love shines through. After all a wedding is about the love between two people.

Gisborough Hall Hotel, set in the stunning Cleveland hills offers a great wedding venue throughout the seasons. I’ve worked here for a very long time now. Beit one of my local venues, Matthew and Janine had their wedding booked well before the pandemic.
