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.

Sometimes simplicity is awesome. Love some good natural window light. The beautiful bride and the image make themselves. Captured at the South Causey Inn.
