Their pre-wedding shoot took place at a great little farm in Kirk Bramwith, Doncaster which I’m lucky enough to use from time to time for photo shoots. Apart from a near miss with a very unfriendly sheepdog, the photo shoot was fantastic – relaxed and a great laugh, just the way i like them!

A selection of some of my favourite photos from the pre wedding shoot can be seen below:-

Despite being repeatedly bitten by nasty bugs through out the shoot, the resulting photographs were more than worth the itching that followed!! Fingers crossed, the bugs wont follow us across Doncaster to the Crown Hotel in a few weeks!

Easter Sunday was a perfect day, for the first time in weeks the rain held off, the sun shone all day and the thermometer hit the dizzying heights of 16c!! Best of all, I photographed the beautiful wedding of Craig & Jacqui at The Crown Hotel, Bawrty, just outside Doncaster.

When I blogged about their pre-wedding shoot, I mentioned that Jacqui in particular was dreading being photographed.  When I arrived at their home in Cusworth to photograph the preparations, I was expecting Jacqui to be a bag of nerves – she was anything but  – she was relaxed, confident and totally chilled out, having a laugh with her beautiful bridesmaids, and downing the odd glass of champagne!

I then traveled through Doncaster to the Crown Hotel in Bawtry, to await Jacqui’s arrival with her father.  I took this opportunity to photograph Craig, who had been dreading the photos more than Jacqui if that was at all possible!  He looks like a professional model in training so he too had nothing to worry about!

As you can see above, Jacqui looked absolutely stunning on her wedding day.  It was a pleasure and an honour to capture their big day. A selection of my favourites photos from the wedding day at the Crown Hotel & Bawtry Hall can be seen in the photo montage.

Michelle and Andy had booked me to photograph their wedding reception at the Crown Hotel, however, before this I met up with Michelle and her bridesmaids at the couple’s home in Doncaster to photograph the preparations. There was such a great atmosphere and buzz around the place. Michelle in particular was so happy and giddy it was untrue! Her family and friends from over in Wales and travelled over to Doncaster for the wedding. I photographed the wedding service at the beautiful church in Cantley, just outside Doncaster. The happy couple then travelled onto the Crown Hotel in a beautiful horse drawn carriage.

Michelle and Andy had hired Bawtry Hall to have a small selection of group photos. After this, the three of us spent around 20 minutes together as I grabbed some candid photographs of the two of them, along with a small selection of formal shots – well as formal as I do anyway! When I am photographing a wedding, I like to take no more than 10-15 minutes on the group photos, and around 20-30 minutes with the couple themselves. This way, they can spend the vast majority of their wedding day with those close to them, rather than me! This also helps me capture the essence and storey of their day.
