One of the most colourful weddings I have photographed is that of Nikki & Tony.

Both as mad as hatters and down to earth I had great fun taking their photos at the very colourful Devonshire Fell, Burnsall in Skipton (Near Bolton Abbey).

I was concentrating on taking photographs of the wedding ceremony when out of the corner of my eye I saw this beautiful moment.

I love to take photographs of all the details and attention to detail that make up a wedding and when I saw the downlighter in the wardrobe when Nikki was getting ready I grabbed her shoes and went for this snazzy shot.

The Devonshire Fell is one of the Luxury Devonshire Hotels owned by the Trustees of the Chatsworth Settlement which includes the Bolton Abbey Estate in Yorkshire and the Chatsworth Estate in Derbyshire. Also in the collection of venues for weddings is the Devonshire Arms and The Cavendish Pavilion.

Nikki & Tony exclusively booked the whole hotel so that their friends and family truly let their hair down and I carried on taking photos well in to the night.

Guess who I met this weekend?

I had the pleasure of being asked by wedding photographer Andrew Mcmillan (Keighley) to help him out on taking the wedding photography of Charlie Hodgson, the England Rugby Union star.

Andrew was having difficulty being in two places at once so I covered Charlie’s shots while Andrew photographed Charlie’s beautiful bride Daisy Hartley getting ready. Charlie and Daisy were married at Yorkshire’s Bolton Abbey next to the River Wharfe.

Here is a photograph of Charlie and Daisy as they walked back down the aisle as a married couple.

Charlie and Daisy had been planning a honeymoon at The Peebles Hydro Hotel in Scotland but had to put their honeymoon on hold after Charlie recovered from a long term knee injury and was selected for the World Cup training squad.
