For the second time in as many weeks, we had the pleasure of joining a family for the marriage of another one of their children. We photographed Paul’s sister’s wedding a few years ago and now we were lucky enough to be asked to photograph Paul & Lesley on their special day. They chose the beautiful Addingham church near Little Salkeld for their marriage and then we followed them to Leeming House for their reception. Leeming House is one of the nicest venues around with truly stunning panoramic views of Ullswater and the surrounding mountains – it makes for some really dramatic wedding photography! We were also very lucky to be there on such a scorching hot day – it was simply stunning.

I am often asked to take as many natural shots at weddings as possible, this has never been easier than it was at the wedding of Michelle and Ashley! As you can see they totally enjoyed the day and got into the spirit of things; this allowed us just to take a back seat and capture some fantastic fun images. The Swan Hotel at Newby Bridge is a lovely wedding venue and the tasteful, bright interior is great for the modern, vibrant images we produce.

A beautiful country house hotel with views of the lake, a picturesque country church, a carriage and an Aston Martin DB9….. what more could you ask for on your wedding day, other than Paul Mortimer Photography to capture the whole day for you of course! I always enjoy attending weddings at the Merewood Hotel in Windermere and I think it makes the perfect venue for a winter wedding with its open fires and cosy lounges. The wedding of Helen & Phil was no exception and we had a great day with them, I am sure you agree that the carriage Helen used is beautiful, although the Aston Martin she organised for Phil as a surprise would of been my preferred method of transport, but you know what us boys are like for our toys!
