Captured at a recent Pre-Wedding shoot at Alnwick Gardens on a red hot day. It honestly looks like the south of France when it's a hot day. Loved this shoot and the couple were ace.

This was such a fun pre-wedding shoot. Just me and the couple for miles. The sun was shining and we had a forest to ourselves. Such a fun couple.

Ah man, I love the Lake District, I love my wedding couples, I love photography - Put it all together on an Adventure Session and you get perfection - The weather that days was amazing too. What a day.

Such a sunny day for this engagement session. With striking contrast of dark to light on the hill/sky I thought a silhouette would work amazing. The couple were running across the top and it came out great.

Love a but of fun - This engagement session was great. we approached the summit of a hill and I asked them to jump in the air and do something funky like a 'dab' and the image came out great.

I captured this on an adventure shoot for one of my couples. We travelled 8 hours to the Isle of Skye and hiked up to the Old Man of Storr. What a place. beautiful. The couple look awesome in the surroundings. It was very cold that day too. haha

A different perspective is sometimes cool. I would have loved to do this with a manual aperture lens to nail it in camera but alas I didn't have a manual aperture lens so I made use of what I had to complete the vision.

I was hoping for a bit of mood when we went to the Isle of Skye but it was glorious sunshine day - I made the most of it with the couple and when visiting places like the Isle of Skye, small people in a big landscape will always work. The are is amazing. I used a flash off to camera right to add a touch of light to their fronts as the sun was coming in from the back right.

Captured about 1 hour before I left the wedding. This venue has lovely lights all over their stairs and of course really nice features like the giant plant pots - its a simple composition and simple pose with some nice off camera flash work - works well for being a simple shot.

I created this shot using 3 lights. A key light to light the couple. A purple gelled flash further back and a red gelled flash. They all work to create a lovely photo. I asked the groom to give the bride a lift to add something dynamic and it works well.
