I've been a wedding photographer for over 10 years now (and yet I haven't aged a day, weird). So I've become a bit of an expert when it comes to wedding venues across Yorkshire and beyond. And I've built up a pretty massive stock of images to share!
Keeping scrolling to see some of my favourites*. I've tried to pick a selection that covers all of the things I love to photograph on a wedding day; confetti faces, aisle walks, anxious grooms, proud dads, dance floor moves, fun group shots with your girl/guy gangs, mid-speech cringes and of course some gorgeous couple shots! And if you like what you see then scroll s'more to dig a little deeper...
* There are quite a few so you might want to grab a glass of something before you get started. My current preference is Slingsy Gooseberry Gin, but I don’t insist on it...
Below are links to even more wedding galleries. Here you can search by venue, break it down into different parts of the wedding day, take a look at some example online wedding albums, or see what an engagement shoot is all about.
My newest page – Find Your Venue. As a wedding photographer all across Yorkshire, from Leeds to York, Skipton to Harrogate, Huddersfield to Richmond and further, I’ve been lucky to work at so many of Yorkshire’s finest wedding venues (and we have some good’uns!).
Just click on your venue to be taken to a selection of blog posts featuring weddings I’ve shot there.
I still have more venues to add so if yours isn’t there do get in touch and ask as I might not have managed to add it yet!
Go to Featured Weddings to see examples of wedding stories starting from the bridal (and sometimes groom!) preparations, through to the ceremony, confetti, drinks reception, group photos, bride & groom photos, speeches, cake cutting, and of course the party. With lots of lovely candid photos of happy people throughout the day:
You can also chose which part of the day you want to look at by, unsurprisingly, choosing “Pick Your Favourite Part of The Day“
Click on Engagement Shoots below for some of my favourite engagement photos from the past few years. We have loads of amazing locations for engagement shoots here in Yorkshire; stately homes, public gardens, woodlands, moors, city centres and loads more.
Once you’ve had your fill of photos you can check out my wedding photography prices to see if I suit your budget, have a read through my Frequently Asked Questions, find out a bit more about me, and then hopefully fill in my contact form to find out if I’m free on your wedding date and request a brochure
LAURA & DAVE // Spring has sprung in York!
I spent last Saturday capturing these guys and their beautiful wedding at York Oratory & The Guildhall York. Laura & Dave opted to see each other before their ceremony, and then wander the city for photos. We met up at The Museum Gardens in the morning so we could get loads of photos in the abbey ruins, then headed over to the Minster where the cherry blossoms were still in bloom, and finished off at Chapter House Street - my favourite cobbled street in York 🥰 It was lovely to have so much time for all this, and it meant that Laura & Dave could spend all of their drinks reception with their guests.
This was my first visit to @guildhallyork and it`s an absolute gem of a venue. It`s so light and spacious inside and I love the huge stained glass window.
Massive congratulations Mr & Mrs M, thanks for having me!

GRACE & MATT // Last Friday saw me back at The Woodman Inn Thunderbridge for the wedding of this gorgeous pair!
The forecast was iffy all week but we got dry skies for most of the day. So we made the most of the outdoor space at The Woodman, with drinks on the patio listening to the babbling stream and the birds in the trees ❤️
Grace looked amazing of course - I absolutely loved the floral touches on the sleeves of her wedding gown. And Matt scrubbed up good in his uniform too! 👌
Thank you Grace & Matt for trusting me to capture your beautiful wedding; I had so much fun with you guys and can`t wait to share more!
