It’s finally here! My annual round-up of 2019, and wow was it hard work choosing which images to share this year.

Sometimes, certain weddings stick in my mind so clearly I’m pretty sure I could write out a minute by minute account of them. Ella and James’ wedding at Orchardleigh Estate is one of them, where I have so many memories in so much detail, that it’s a bit overwhelming where on earth to start writing!

Heading into Spring bright eyed and bushy-tailed after a long winter’s break, I was super excited to photograph my first wedding at Sissons Barn and Peterborough Cathedral for Ellie and Steve! These guys had been so much fun to work with right from the word go, right down to sending me the cutest card when they secured their date, I knew their wedding would be one to remember.

When Bo and Andy got in touch about their Chinese-English fusion wedding I was ridiculously excited! First off, Bo has been a friend of mine since secondary school (we won’t go into details about how old that makes us now) so I knew that the man she was marrying must be pretty special!

I think all wedding photographers remember the Summer of 2018 as the never ending wedding heatwave. Weeks upon weeks of hot weather and glorious sunshine but typically – this was the year I decided to take my first Summer holiday in years and missed out on most of it.

Becky and Andy held their stunning September wedding at the Manor Barn Cambridge, a new venue for me and one I would absolutely love to go back to again! This wedding was full of fun and laughter, with Becky’s eleven bridesmaids and Andy’s  nine groomsmen being especially good fun to photograph.

Emma and Brett’s winter wedding at the Tithe Barn, Bolton Abbey, was my first wedding of 2019 and boy did it get off to a great start! The Tithe Barn is one of the latest barn venues run by the Cripps group, and having shot at several of their venues before I knew it was going to be pretty awesome.

If you’d asked me three months ago what we were doing for our first wedding anniversary, I’d have said that we were planning a trip away over the Easter break, a nice meal out in the same village as our venue, and that I’d secretly ordered a wedding album as a surprise gift for Jon (my husband). Now, in the middle of coronavirus lockdown, it’s a rather different story.

I know you shouldn’t have favourites but I’m going to come out and say it… Irnham Hall is my favourite local wedding venue.  I’ve photographed so many weddings there over the years and feel excited every time I drive through those iron gates. In fact I love it so much, I got married there myself!
