Nicola and Simon’s wedding really was a day of two halves. In the morning we had pouring rain and wind, then miraculously in the afternoon, the clouds parted and the rest of the day was glorious sunshine! After the ceremony, during the dounpour, we took advantage of the beautiful St. Cuthbert’s church in Carlisle and whisked Nicola and Simon away for a photo shoot in the church gallery. The results were fantastic!

I’d like to kick off my blog with the lovely wedding of Lisa and Craig. They both work in the medical profession and live in New Hartley, Whitby Bay. It was April, they were married at the beautiful St. John’s Church in Hensingham and had their reception at Hundith Hill Hall with jaw dropping views of the lakeland fells just outside of Cockermouth in Cumbria. Thankfully we started a bit of a trend for this year, in that the sun shined! This was perfect for our relaxed and informal style of photography.

The church was stunning and because it was April there was a fantastic covering of daffodils in the grounds…. We couldn’t resist this one!
