Eddie and Tina married 2 years ago last month (they’ve since brought beautiful Vincent William into the world - the most beautiful blue-eyed boy..) They giggled and smiled all the way through their vows, said I do, came out of the church to be covered in confetti, escaped to their transport under umbrellas during an April shower, hugged, kissed and loved everyone who came to celebrate them and then partied HARD into the night.

Laura and Paul planned a really relaxed and personal DIY wedding at Ingleby Greenhow Village Hall in North Yorkshire. The attention to detail and their wedding styling was just fab - loads of touches to reflect them and the things they loved.. and the whole day was about friends and family, hanging out in the sunshine and celebrating once the sun had gone down.. A perfect village hall Summer wedding.

“Sally’s work is just amazing. All our friends and family love the pictures and stop motion of our wedding, they are beautiful and really captured the feel of the day. She has such an attention to detail, from capturing things like the table settings down to how she packages the photos once ready. She put us at ease and helped so much on the day. She listened to what we wanted (didn’t want lots of cheesy big group shots) but captured lots of ‘action’ shots of the guests mingling.” 

For a different kind of blog post today, I thought I would share some of my favourite venues that I’ve worked at, starting with our own glorious Teesside and North Yorkshire. What I love most when working is how every day is different, and I love capturing a variety of venues over the months too - from barns to grand houses and halls, outdoor weddings to village halls.. I love mixing it up and I’ve been lucky enough to shoot at some beautiful places in this little corner of the UK.

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..

Oh what a day this was.. The sun really shone for Elizabeth and Mark's wedding in beautiful North Yorkshire for their village hall wedding. I've known Elizabeth since the beginning of primary school, and we stayed friends right through secondary and past university until our lives changed with partners met and babies arriving.. it was really magical to be there to capture her wedding day, together with their beautiful son, Sebastian. 

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..
