A fantastic 50’s themed wedding at Blairquhan Castle with Ruth & Thomas

June 9, 2010

As Cumbria’s leading wedding photographers we are used to photographing weddings at some beautiful and amazing venues, but Blairquhan Castle in Ayrshire is certainly something special. Regarded by many as one of the top fifty venues in the world to be married, we were very excited about spending the day with Ruth & Thomas on such a wonderful occasion. But just when you thought it could not get any better you also find out that the wedding is fifties themed. Ruth had done a fantastic job in arranging so much incredible detail for the day, making it a dream for us as photographers. We photographed the wedding of Ruth’s sister a few years ago and so it was lovely to be back with their family once again and we would like to thank them all for allowing us to join them on such a special and memorable occasion

Lots of fun and laughter at a beautiful wedding venue – The Swan Hotel in Newby Bridge, Cumbria

April 19, 2010

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 fairytale winter wedding with Helen and Phil at Merewood Country House Hotel in the Lake District

February 6, 2010

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!
