Family and baby portrait photographers in West Yorkshire





Louise, Neil and Thomas

It was such a pleasure to hear from Neil recently when he emailed to tell us that he and Louise are now the proud parents of a lovely little boy called Thomas.  We were the photographers when Louise and Neil married at Rogerthorpe Manor back in September 2006 and we consider it a privilege that they came back to us after all this time when they wanted photographs of their baby. 

Louise and Neil posed with Thomas for a few family photographs and then it was over to Thomas to take the limelight.  What a gorgeous, happy baby he is and the images capture him at such a wonderful age.    

The couple have chosen a collection of beautiful images to celebrate their family and these will be framed together in one of our range of multi frames.

Yorkshire wedding photographers













Rebecca and Peter's wedding at the Crown Hotel, Bawtry, Doncaster on Saturday, 6 March 2010

Today we were delighted to be the wedding photographers for Becky and Pete as they married in a civil ceremony at the Crown Hotel in Bawtry near Doncaster.  Our first stop before joining Pete and the guys at the wedding venue was at Becky's mum's house in Balby.  Becky was out getting her hair and make-up done and she returned just as we were finishing off the photographs of her gorgeous Ian Stuart gown, her perfume, shoes, garter and jewellery.  We had a few minutes left to grab some quick shots of beautiful Becky before setting off for the hotel.

Thankfully, the weather stayed dry and the shots of Pete with his attendants in the garden were quickly taken care of in time for Becky's early arrival in a lovely black and cream Daimler, accompanied by her proud dad, Martin. 

Following the ceremony, the guests showered the new Mr and Mrs Hinchliffe with confetti before the couple jumped into their car to be driven the short distance to Bawtry Hall for a some couple shots.  Returning to the Crown Hotel, we completed the group photographs, cake cutting shots and table details before Becky and Pete re-joined their guests and began their receiving line.

After dinner and speeches, we took Becky and Pete for a short walk around the hotel to capture a few romantic shots, plus the stunning image of Becky above which really shows off her fabulous gown.  The couple then took to the floor for their first dance to Elvis's "The Wonder of You."  Thank you guys for a fabulous day and for inviting us to capture it for you.

Hazlewood Castle Wedding Photographers











Faye and Ken's wedding at Hazlewood Castle on Sunday, 28 February 2010

Today it was our absolute pleasure to share the wedding celebrations of Faye and Ken in the beautiful setting of Hazlewood Castle, where the couple married surrounded by close family and friends in a very intimate civil ceremony in the Victoria Room.  It was obvious from our first meeting with Faye and Ken that we would have a fantastic day with them.  They are such a lovely couple and they were so easy to work with.  Even though the weather was extremely cold, they were happy to go along with our suggestions for photographs and we were delighted that despite the forecast of heavy rain and strong winds, it managed to stay dry all day and Faye's beautiful smile never faded, despite the goosebumps!  With the family group photographs taken care of pretty quickly, we spent some time having fun with the bridal party before they disappeared inside to get warm.  We spent the remaining time with Faye and Ken before heading inside to take photographs of the Old Dining Room all set up for the wedding breakfast where everyone sat together around one huge oval table.  Hilarious speeches followed and afterwards, we joined the couple in the Elderflower suite to capture some romantic images for them.  As Faye and Ken had decided on a last dance rather than a first dance, the final images to end their coverage were some amazing night shots in the castle courtyard.  Thank you Faye and Ken for choosing us to share such a wonderful, happy day.  It was our privilege to be your wedding photographers.

Promotional Portrait Photographers in West Yorkshire







Tracey and Guy

Tracey and Guy joined us for a full afternoon's portrait shoot in our studio.  They are singing partners and they needed some shots for their advertising and promotional materials.  The shoot included taking photographs of the two of them together as a duet and individual images to promote Guy's Frank Sinatra tribute and Tracey's Liza Minelli act.  They both looked fantastic! A really enjoyable and fun session and some great images. 

Family Portrait Photographers in West Yorkshire



Imogen, Anthony, Austin and Zac

This lovely family came all the way from Bradford for a portrait session with us and although this was mainly for photographs of the boys together, we had great fun taking some relaxed shots of all the family, as well as Austin and Zac together and individually.  Austin really enjoyed the experience, as he loves having his photograph taken.  It has to be said that Zac was less impressed, but nevertheless, we managed to get some great shots before he decided enough was enough!  We're looking forward to the viewing session with Imogen and Anthony soon.

If you're thinking about having your child and children photographed, it's nice to have some photographs taken as a family too.  Parents are often reluctant to be photographed but your children will value the images they have taken with you much more than those taken on their own.  It's well worth thinking about and as we are happy to take whatever combinations of family you would like within a single portrait session, there's no reason not to be photographed as a family.  Children grow up so quickly and these family portraits will become a heirloom which they will treasure. 

Call us on 01977 730159 to book your appointment at our special offer price of just £25 for a limited time only.

Walshford, Wetherby Wedding Photographers










Laura and Alan's wedding at The Bridge Inn, Walshford near Wetherby on 13 February 2010

Our first wedding of the 2010 season and we were really looking forward to the marriage of Laura and Alan at the Bridge Inn, Walshford, near Wetherby, but before meeting Alan there, we spent an enjoying morning with Laura and her bridesmaids as they prepared for the ceremony.  Laura had chosen a gorgeous gown in blush pink and she got into it just in time for us to get some dress fastening shots before we had to leave for Walshford.  A kind and accommodating registrar meant that we were able to capture shots from the front and the back as the ceremony took place and the weather, although cold and breezy, stayed dry just long enough for us to get the main photographs taken, including a big group shot of everyone at the wedding.  After the wedding breakfast and speeches, we spent a short time taking some photographs of the new Mr and Mrs Gray inside the hotel and then we braved the cold for five minutes to get some beautiful evening shots of the couple outside.  Following the cake cutting and bouquet toss, Laura and Alan took to the floor for their first dance and our day ended with Laura dancing with her proud dad, Salvador.  Thank you Laura and Alan for choosing us to capture your day.  We look forward to designing a stunning storybook album for you.
