Weddings "Out of town"

Most weddings we photograph are around a 10mile radius from our home, namely, Fleetwood, Garstang, Preston and of course Blackpool and The Fylde Coast. but every now and again we travel a little further, be it the Lake District, Cheshire and over the Pennines into Yorkshire. all within a 2 hour drive.

e-mail arrangements are all very well but Wedding Photography is a very important and personal part of your day and we believe requires the personal approach from the offset.

Using a Professional Wedding Photographer based close to your home rather than an unknown near the venue makes a lot of sense, You are able to meet /visit and discus your wedding day plans and timings beforehand . Afterwards being able to collect your album and framed photographs- a lot less expensive .than driving to and from the venue area again and again.or using a courier service


Whenever we are commissioned to photograph out of our area, we always do our homework and visit the Hotel or Church prior to your wedding and if possible speak with your wedding organiser, thus ensuring we are fully prepared for your day.

In the next few months we have bookings that take back to Grange over Sands, The Lake District ,The Ribble Valley and the Peak District.

Just to give you ideas a have attached a slide show of two previous weddings




one from the lovely
Armathwaite Hall near Keswick




The Cragwood Hotel a beautiful oldy worldly hotel right on the waters edge of Lake Windermere.

Neil and Amy's wedding at The Church of the Holy Cross Blackpool and Reception at The Clifton Arms Lytham


Bridesmaids can be a help or a hinder, but yesterday 4 of the 5 maids wonderful, looked lovely in Royal Purple, and very helpful to Amy our bride of the day, but the 5th, the youngest, very demanding required a personal dresser, insisted on early lunch and best of all raised her opinions in the church you guessed it - has anybody any objections......-but when you are 2 months old and the beloved daughter of Neil and Amy you can get away with anything.

Neil and Amy enjoyed a wonderful hot sunny day for their wedding at The Church of the Holy Cross ,Central Drive, Blackpool. followed by wedding breakfast in the beautiful Clifton Suite of The Clifton Arms Hotel Lytham with views overlooking the green and the famous windmill.

Photography of Winter Weddings.


In Wintertime, with so little daylight, and sometimes a little chilly, photography of weddings is a very demanding task. We do not want to use a flash gun all the time, but capture you naturally with the daylight available. With 20yrs experience in photography we pride ourselves in being able to achieve a lovely album you will be proud of.
During June we are offering all 2010/11 booking a chance to have a selection of photographs taken prior to the wedding FREE OF CHARGE
