I love it during the ceremony when there is lots of eye contact, exchanged smiles and sometime a fit of giggles as it gives me opportunities to take photos. You cant fake these moments so I know that the couples will love looking at them after the wedding.
I had a couple last year who couldn’t stop looking at each other. From the moment Charlotte entered the Church it was as if she and Charles were the only two people there.
Even the Wakefield wedding videographer Ken Wilson commented on how in-love they were. All I had to do was hitch a ride on their love for one another to get fab photos at both the Church and Bagden Hall.
Charlotte & Charles had booked an old red route master bus to take their guests to Bagden Hall and it made a fab place to do a confetti shot too.
Charlotte’s father had passed away and could not be there for her. Charlotte invited me along as she paid a visit to her father’s grave to lay a flower from her bouquet.
It is times like this where you stand back and give people time and space and I was happy to record the moment for them in their album.
You might remember Helen & Peter from their engagement shoot. I have great news…Helen & Peter had a baby girl and they have asked me to take their christening photos this summer!…
Helen & Peter had their wedding at the National Trust property Nostell Priory in Wakefield and were married in Nostell Priory church. Nostell Priory is a stunning venue run by Dine catering renowned for their professionalism and top class organisation of their weddings.
Dine recently invited me back for a wedding fair where I enjoyed chatting with couples about their up-coming wedding plans.
I am looking forward to the Christening and will post some photos of the day later on this year.
Nostell Priory, Wakefield, is a dream venue to have your wedding and I was personally invited to attend and show my photography at their wedding fair this year.
I would like to thank Gordon Watt for sending me his photograph of me chatting with wedding couples about their wedding plans.
Recently I was wedding photographer for Helen & Peter Massey’s wedding at Nostell Priory in Wakefield. Helen had mentioned to me that they had something special planned for the first dance but I wasn’t privy to exactly what it was. So, to much excitement I had my camera ready when the music started.
Here is one page of their wedding album showing the first dance…
And here is the video posted on Youtube…
You may remember Helen and Peter from their engagement shoot photographs. Nostell Priory is a fabulous 18th century National Trust property available for weddings in Wakefield, West Yorkshire.

There will be more photos to follow when the retouching has been finished.
