What a weekend I had capturing Zoe & Phil’s epic elopement adventure engagement shoot around the beautiful Lake District in Cumbria!
We covered a fair bit of ground while shooting around the beautiful Lakes from climbing the steep lakeside hills to capture the epic landscape to romancing around Brougham Castle in Penrith & walking along the nearby river Eamont banks to get that perfect picture. We ventured & trekked through the fields above Ullwater & came across some beautiful white horses peacefully grazing before we made our way to the jaw dropping Ullswater for a barefoot stroll in the lake.
The Dingle Engagement Shoot - Mathew & Hannah
Cottons Hotel & Spa Knutsford - Shaun & Rebecca
It was the 3rd March, & the time had come for Rebecca & Shaun's wedding at the Cottons Hotel & Spa in Knutsford Cheshire. It was also the week that the "Beast from the East" had arrived bringing with it bitter winds, heavy snow conditions & sub-zero temperatures, but that wasn't going to put a dampener on the day going ahead as planned.
Since shooting Shaun & Rebecca's engagement shoot at Marbury Park, I had the pleasure of hearing some exciting news, Rebecca was pregnant & would be in her third trimester during their wedding day, completing their family & making the wedding day extra special.
After a busy morning chilling & prepping for the day ahead (and a few pre-nervous drinks later), Shaun was dressed to impress along with their son Rhys & best man Matt, while the ladies were relaxing & getting ready in the bridal suite making themselves look beautiful & being pampered.
The ceremony took place at The Cottons Hotel & Spa & there after day ran perfectly from start to finish & everyone's emotions were running high. There were lots of laughter & tears as the day unfolded.
It was a fun & relaxed wedding & I was made very welcome by family & friends as I mingled in & captured candid shots of Shaun & Rebecca's friends & family.
It was a pleasure shooting Shaun & Rebecca's wedding & witnessing them tied the knot & dance the night away.
I met lots of characters, which made the day one I won't forget anytime soon, & would like to take the opportunity to thank Shaun & Rebecca for having me photograph their special day.
