As a Yorkshire Wedding Photographer, I really am having the best season ever! The weather has been just fantastic and the clients I am blessed to work with are all superb. As soon as I met John and Amy last year, I knew their wedding would be special, they are both extremely creative people and I knew I would be able to push the envelope with their photography.
The entire day was at Rowley Manor, Little Weighton, definitely one of my favourite venues in the area. John started his day with an obligatory Starbucks – in fact I am led to believe that John and Amy have a major share in the company due to the gallons they consume throughout the week! Once John was safely on the right side of his caffeine dose, the boys started to get ready – minus one of the ushers who had managed to get pulled over by the police due to his hasty driving in his search of the local area for the perfect bacon banjo! The irony being that John had made mention of this POTENTIALLY happening whilst preparing his speech!
Amy was getting ready only a few bedrooms away in the bridal suite and with big, traditional sash windows, there’s tonnes of light and makes a great environment to capture great images in. Amy’s brother was the ‘Man of Honour’ and also a very talented guitarist. He entertained us with a couple of songs as the bride was making her final preps.
The ceremony was lovely, Amy’s brother played a beautiful song by the Foo Fighters whilst the newlyweds signed the register.
After the group shots had been finished on the croquet lawn, the guests and wedding party settled in for a super meal and a really touching set of speeches. Once dinner was over, everybody went back outside to enjoy the sunshine and a highly competitive game of rounders began (How very British!)
We left our ‘Penny Drop’ session until the early evening when the sun was less intense and lower in the sky for those killer shots I love to produce with the bride and groom.
John and Amy are road-tripping down the East Coast of the US ending up on the beach in Miami for 9 days – I can’t wait to share their story with them on their return.
