Dawn wanted a simple uncluttered bouquet of gorgeous creamy roses and freesias.

Lovely detail on Dawn's one shoulder dress.

Beautiful little flower-Apollonia shines in the park.

A few weeks ago gorgeous Apollonia had her second baby shoot with us in a park in Worsley. She was an absolute star and you can see from the images below why she melted my heart and became my favourite baby of the yearShe is just at the age where she has such an expressive little face and I think I captured most of those in our shoot. You decide-which is your favourite? If you would like to capture your precious family memeories on film forever we would love to hear from you.

Walton Gardens engagement shoot- waterfalls, giggling and curry?!

A couple of months ago we met up with Victoria and Ste for their engagement shoot at Walton Gardens near Warrington. They are getting married at The Fennes in Essex next year and we have the pleasure of documenting their day. It’s going to be a fabulously colourful day-vibrant pinks and yellows and as it is Easter an Easter egg hunt and lots of chocolate! HeavenBack to the engagement shoot and you can tell Ste is a Northern lad-wearing his shorts while Victoria still has her full coat on

Here are some of the images taken-would love to know which is your favourite and why.

How gorgeous is this waterfall?

Love these cuddly photos of Victoria and Ste

Victoria explains why she loves Ste

Victoria and Ste share some laughs among the cherry blossom

Now we know why Ste is marrying Vicky

A stroll along the canal

How gorgeous does Vicky look?

Ste doesn't look too bad either

Manor By the Lake Wedding -brilliantly bonkers bridesmaids!

Earlier this month we photographed Dawn and Gavin’s fabulous wedding at Manor By the Lake in Cheltenham. The venue is gorgeous, manicured gardens, an old manor house and as the name suggests, a secluded lake. Dawn and Gavin are still honeymooning in The Bahamas at the moment so today is just a sneak peek. As I was editing their photos I was constantly smiling-it was such a happy wedding and today’s post celebrates 3 of the main reasons for this-Dawn’s bridesmaids! They laughed, they chuckled, they giggled, they played the fool-they were absolutely brilliant!

Love the gorgeous teal dresses-the exact same colour as my bridesmaid dresses

They helped Dawn get ready - as good bridesmaids should.

Demure looking bridesmaids?

And then.....the laughing began

and they laughed......

....giggled

....chuckled

Dawn's angels?

The laughing is definitely infectious!

Gavin joins in the laugh fest

Dawn looks serene surrounded by the madness-she knows them well!

Are they bonkers or what?

Can’t wait to share more of this fab wedding soon-hope these images made you smile as much as me. Would love to hear what you have to say.

Aaah just how the best bridesmaids should be! They loved every minute of it and it shows! I love umbrella shot with the striking blue dresses against the yellow topiary (is that what its called?)
My faves are the shots where Dawn is looking straight at the camera, trying her best to ignore the giggles!! The blue compliments her hair colour so well, gorgeous! They obviously enjoyed the day so much, bet they had an absolute ball at the reception!

Claire - English Wedding blog - July 22, 2011 - 9:51 pm

Love them! Love the Charlie’s Angels photo!!! What a fab blog post, lovely to see a focus on the bridesmaids, something different. Brilliant! xxx

Jody - July 22, 2011 - 9:54 pm

Amazing photos….. what a great day we had and lots of giggles too xx

Norma and Paul Adams (Dawns family) - July 23, 2011 - 7:17 am

Hi Jenny and Keith, many thanks for all your hard work on the 9th July, the photos are amazing, but then we knew they would be! so looking forward to seeing the others. They brought back memories of a magical day and just had a grizzle lol. Thanks again Dawns mum and stepfather x

Jenny & Keith - July 23, 2011 - 9:27 am

Can’t wait to show Dawn and Gavin the rest

Jenny & Keith - July 23, 2011 - 9:28 am

Thanks Claire – couldn’t resist- the whole bridal party were great fun and can’t wait to show the rest-once Dawn and Gavin have seen them

Jenny & Keith - July 23, 2011 - 9:29 am

Thanks Kay-Dawn’s hair is absolutely gorgeous- and the colours of the grounds and the dresses mean that this was definitely not a wedding for much black and white photography!
