Katie and Dan held an absolutely FABULOUS marquee wedding up in the North Yorkshire hills at Ingleby Greenhow. There was stunning styling, the last of the Summer sun, dancing, joy and the cocktails flowed. An absolute dream. It’s time to share their stop motion wedding film..

Oh Charlotte and André! What a special day it was celebrating your wedding with you.. These two said their vows then headed up into the hill of beautiful North Yorkshire to hold their wedding reception at The Pheasant in Harome, a small village near Helmsley. There was sunshine and showers, incredible floral styling by The Wilde, ridiculously good colours.. I guess this is what happens when a wedding photographer (Charlotte!) plans the most beautiful and photogenic wedding.. (no pressure for me then, none at all…!)

Step this way for the most amazing Easter wedding inspiration! Amy and Phil held their sunny Spring wedding at Laskill House in North Yorkshire - a stunning venue set amongst the beautiful North Yorkshire hills. The weather was ridiculously good, and these two with their guests sat in the sunshine enjoying fizz and celebrating together whilst the kids played games and blew bubbles on the lawn…

Another "‘Magic Seven’ today - a series in which I choose my favourite seven photographs from a wedding from deep in the archives to share and relive all over again.. Today it’s time for Vicki and Chris at the Star Inn at Harome near Helmsley - a beautiful barn-type venue that does absolutely incredible food.. Here is how their day went..

Liam and Lois! Where do I even begin? I’ve actually come to know these two dreamboats more and more as the years have gone on as I’ve caught up with them at various friends’ weddings that I’ve also gone on to shoot.. These two really say ‘Yes!’ to life and it was a dream to capture their joy-filled day.. Here they are featured for another ‘Magic Seven’..

WHAT a wedding to finish the year with! Grace and Michael’s Rudby Hall wedding was absolutely wonderful and I came away feeling so Christmassy - theirs was a really elegant Wintery celebration.

“Sally is just INCREDIBLE! Having seen her work on 3 of our friends weddings as soon as we got engaged she was the first thing we booked! I wouldn’t have had anyone else to do my wedding photography! She is such a lovely person and makes you feel so relaxed and at ease when taking photos. It’s like having one of your best friends as your photographer. Her photos are simply beautiful and totally capture the spirit of the day. I would book her again and would recommend her to everyone I know!”

It was a blustery but beautiful day for Grace and Michael’s engagement shoot - and what an incredible setting. These two live in the village at the bottom of the hill, and it was worth us all hiking up to reach the beautiful summit of Captain Cook’s Monument.

Whoever said it was grim up North has clearly never been..

September is one of my favourite months for weddings.. it’s the end of Summer but still slightly to warm to declare it ‘Autumn’. Phillippa and Toby lucked out and had beautiful sunshine and light for their York House in Malton wedding. Phillippa’s parents married at the adjacent Talbot House and it was magical that she and Toby celebrated their nuptials there too.

Never have I ever come away from a wedding craving a glass of fizz quite so much.. Alex and Dave had a champagne-inspired Wray’s Barn wedding at the beautiful Whinstone View near Great Ayton in North Yorkshire. I've loved shooting weddings at Whinstone View so much in the past because every couple can really put their stamp on this beautiful Wray’s Barn venue and it has a totally different feel every time.. Alex and Dave celebrated in style and their wedding was wonderful to be part of. Here is their stop motion wedding film..

Mark and Elizabeth said 'I do' at the local church in Hutton Rudby, before travelling a few villages away to celebrate in Rountons village hall. It was an incredible day - one I'll never forget - and after these photos were taken we danced into the night celebrating what these two have in each other.

Here is their stop motion film..

Well Saturday was EPIC. It was just the most laughter and love-filled day. Laura and Patrick know how to wedding and it was just perfect. Space hoppers, happy tears, limericks, amazing evening light, a glitter bar, wild ceilidh dancing.. and they topped it off by performing their own first dance song. I think the photos say more than I can.. step this way to see this amazing Aldby Park marquee wedding..

Holly and Jamie's York city centre wedding was just wonderful. They said their vows in St Deny's Church before walking up Fossgate to the Merchant Adventurer's Hall for their reception.

The forecast was for solid rain - ALL day.. but when they came out of the church the sun was shining and not a drop of rain fell until it was time for everyone to sit down for the meal - perfect timing and we all couldn't believe their luck!

To be completely honest, it's been a little while since I shot an engagement shoot. I love doing them, but recently I've been much more used to wedding days and family sessions.. so when Phillippa and Toby greeted me with "We're a bit nervous!" I replied with "Me too!"

The latest post for 'The Magic Seven' is the lovely Emma and Ben, who had their wedding at the Star Inn at Harome in North Yorkshire. They had their fabulous daughter Noa there (her reaction to them exchanging their rings obviously made it into this selection!) and she had a fabulous outfit, crafted by Emma herself.

Today's 'Magic Seven' is Emma and Shaun! These two got married one hot May day at the beautiful and rustic York Maze - a quirky barn venue in North Yorkshire - and had their ceremony in a different barn next door (above); such a beautiful space to tie the knot. They chose York Maze because it's such a relaxed and chilled out venue and they could really personalise and put their own stamp on it.

On Saturday I photographed Tina and Eddie's Worsall Village Hall wedding in Teesside. Eddie is a childhood friend of my husbands, and as soon as he started seeing Tina I loved her - they are an amazing match and I was so excited when they asked me to photograph their day..

Who's a fan of 1920s/Great Gatsby styling then? Yes?! You're going to love this Middleton Lodge, North Yorkshire wedding.. Emma and Scott tied the knot at beautiful venue, Middleton Lodge, before celebrating with champagne in hand into the night in their marquee, which had been decorated to perfection with vintage 20s styling; all in navy and gold.

2017 was another busy, exciting and special year for so many reasons.. My work has taken me all over the UK and abroad, I've met and worked with truly wonderful couples, laughed and cried through speeches and unscripted moments, tried to push myself creatively more than ever, charged and packed my kit, shot, then charged and packed again (ad infinitum), and really tried to push and bring myself and my own approach to my work more than ever before..
