“Sally was wonderful from the start, put my camera shy husband at ease, and was a joy to have there on the day. The photographs didn’t take up a whole chunk of the day, and apart from the official photographs, She was in the background snapping away. The photographs were beautiful, and the presentation of the box was just lovely. My make up artist said they are the best set of photos she has ever seen. I can’t stop looking at them, and don’t know how I will ever decide which ones to display!”

I was so excited to shoot a wedding at Le Petit Chateau in Northumberland for the first time and it certainly didn’t disappoint.. Beth and Adam’s wedding was so. damn. cool.. and full of personal handmade touches, incredible flowers and neon, and they celebrated in style surrounded by family and friends. They booked me for a stop motion wedding film as well as their photos (which you can see here) and I really loved putting this film together for them.

What. A. Wedding.

Immy and Matt’s wedding was injected with so much fun and so much colour.. I knew theirs would be an amazing day to shoot and it would be an amazing crowd because I shot Immy’s sister Sorrel’s wedding last September which was also brimming with laughter, party people and incredible dance moves.

Their stop motion wedding film can tell the story better than I can.. so here goes!

Nadine and Chris’ wedding really was something else.. there was so, so much to capture and it was an absolute dream to shoot! A real mix of cultures, music and entertainment - from zaffa drummers to samba dancers..

They were lucky enough to have sunshine all day for their Hedsor House wedding, and guests mingled outside playing lawn games, drinking Aperol and taking in the incredible setting for their day.

An absolutely beautiful outdoor wedding celebration for today’s ‘Magic Seven’ - I absolutely loved being part of Jenna and Tom’s Camp Katur tipi wedding in North Yorkshire. They had a personalised woodland ceremony before eating and celebrating in a nearby tipi in the grounds of Camp Katur - a glamping site which meant that guests could stay nearby after the party had finished.

Huge congratulations to Fiona and Scott, who celebrated their wedding at the bea-u-tiful Priory Hall near Ipswich. The sun shone, guests hung out with espresso martinis and fizz, speeches on the lawn, sunshine, a funk band, Fiona’s incredible Temperley wedding dress.. An absolutely amazing wedding all round.

“Sally is SO AMAZING! She made me feel so comfortable and was such a calming, lovely person to have around when we were getting ready. She managed to capture so many wonderful spontaneous moments and nailed all the formal shots too. She was brilliant at seeming to be everywhere at the right times and she was so creative and adapted how did things depending on the situation at the time. The photos and the stop motion video summed up the vibe of our day perfectly and we couldn't love them more.”

From the archives today is Cathy and Seb’s beautiful marquee wedding in Stirling in Scotland, held in the grounds at Cathy’s family home. It was personal, covered in beautiful blooms, had both a ceilidh and an amazing wedding band, and when I left at midnight I could tell that this party was going to go on until the sun came up..

I love a relaxed wedding so much.. it really brings it all back to what it’s all really about. Laura and Nick had a wonderfully laid back wedding at The Plough Inn in Congleton and celebrated in their barn with family and friends.

Here are some favourites so far - scroll through for some Gin wedding styling ideas, an arm-wrestle between the groom and his twin and a ridiculously good jam donut wedding cake stack….

One very close to my heart from today’s ‘Magic Seven’ post... From a wonderful few days I spent in Italy for one of my closest friends’ weddings and I was both bridesmaid and photographer all in one (can you spot me in one of these photos?) It’s Louise and Steven’s Arpino wedding in Italy!

“We had a very small wedding and Sally fit in so well with our intimate wedding. We didn’t want her to leave ever! The photos we received were worth every single penny. Our most prized possessions.”

I think the setting for Laura and Arran’s wedding speaks for itself, really, but here goes!

Laura and Arran married on Loch Tay, up in Scotland. It was an absolutely incredible setting with atmospheric views of the loch and the surrounding hills, and a little rain didn’t stop their celebrations one tiny bit.

I was so excited to shoot a wedding at Le Petit Chateau in Northumberland for the first time and it certainly didn’t disappoint.. Beth and Adam’s wedding was so. damn. cool.. and full of personal handmade touches, incredible flowers and neon, and they celebrated in style surrounded by family and friends.

HOW have I never shot at Beamish Hall before Ross and Jo’s day? It was an absolutely beautiful setting, and (apart from one Winter where my daughter and I were snowed in after eating at a nearby pub and having to use their phone) I’d never properly visited this beautiful venue before.

“Sally has done a few of our friends weddings so as soon as our date was booked, she was my first email! On the day, she was fantastic! She fit in so well on the morning with my parents and bridesmaids and put everyone at ease.

I never felt like I was being photographed and that’s exactly what we wanted - I properly cried when we got our preview photos - they couldn’t be more perfect!” 

From the archives today is Kerrie and Russel’s stop motion wedding film from their beautiful outdoor wedding at Dedham Vale Vineyard in Essex. These two chose the al fresco venue for its proximity to their home, a blank canvas ready to make personal and fill with their own special touches, and most importantly, meant that their beloved dog could join them for the festivities too..

Another ‘Magic Seven’ wedding from the archives today.. and today it’s all about Naomi and Daniel. Imagine marrying the love of your life, in the evening as thunder rumbles in the distance surrounded by your loved ones.. beacuse this is exactly what Daniel and Naomi did on Friday 13th June 2014 in Marrakech, Morocco.. The rain didn’t stop their incredible celebration (it may have delayed the ceremony a little..) and this was a wedding to remember..

“Sally is thoroughly professional. An artistic photographer who achieved incredible results when photographing our day. She has the ability to blend in to the background and capture stunning moments we didn’t even know had happened. I will treasure our wedding pictures forever.”

What. A. Wedding. Immy and Matt’s wedding was injected with so much fun and so much colour.. I knew theirs would be an amazing day to shoot and it would be an amazing crowd because I shot Immy’s sister Sorrel’s wedding last September which was also brimming with laughter, party people and incredible dance moves.

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…
