Newton Hall - Jenny and Tom

In March, we found ourselves back at Newton Hall. This time it was for Jenny and Tom’s big day. Newton Hall suffered terrible storm damage the month before, but Jenny and Tom were not phased in the slightest. They wanted a fuss-free, fun wedding day, and no amount of scaffolding was going to get in the way of that! In fact, the only photo that they asked for aside from a few family photos, was a picture of the two of them with the scaffolding! Their day was filled with fun and celebration. They were a wonderful couple to work with, and a joy to get to know.

If you're planning your own wedding at Newton Hall, and are looking for a wedding photographer, please get in touch, we would love to hear from you.

Durham Cathedral and Durham Castle - Ruth and Scott

In August, we saw ourselves in the heart of Durham, to photograph Ruth and Scott’s wedding day at Durham Cathedral. Originally from the North East, Ruth and her Canadian groom Scott moved to Luxemburg some time ago but came back to the UK to marry in the iconic building that was so close to her heart. Their ceremony was stunning, their family and friends seated in the choir, with the general public watching from the nave as they gave their vows. After the ceremony, with huge smiles on their faces, Ruth and Scott hurried the short distance from the Cathedral to Durham Castle - rain was pouring down but it did not dampen their spirits in the slightest. They were met by their guests with confetti in hand for a fabulous arrival at the castle. Their grand wedding breakfast in the great hall was followed by a stroll around the castle and cathedral grounds for a few pictures, then a fantastic Cèilidh.

South Causey Inn - Kate and Stephen

“Thank you both so much for our photographs. They are absolutely perfect and really capture every moment of the day. We couldn't be any happier! Our album is amazing. We can't stop looking through it. We have it as a decoration to show everyone that comes in our house.”

I knew from the moment that we first met Kate and her family at a wedding fair that we would be a great fit for one another. We clicked straight away and on the big day, we had so much fun together. Kate and Stephen were married at the end of July at the South Causey Inn in County Durham. Kate looked a vision in her romantic a-line wedding gown, I adored the combination of the reds and pinks in the bridesmaid’s dresses and florals, and the lads looked fab in their navy tweed suits. While the weather wasn’t playing ball, we managed to dodge (most of) the raindrops and captured some lovely pictures of the happy couple outdoors. It was a gorgeous wedding with a wonderful couple and their awesome family and friends.

Newton Hall - Carly and Scott

“We really LOVE our photos, they completely exceeded our expectations! We are truly so grateful you were both able to capture special moments throughout the day. Carly and Scott”

Newton Hall in Northumberland has always been a favourite venue of ours, with its quirky interior, relaxed vibe and coastal location, so it was great to be back again for Carly and Scott’s wedding day in June. The weather was glorious all day long for Carly and Scott who made the most of it, enjoying drinks outdoors with their family and friends after their wedding ceremony and before taking a turn around the grounds for their pictures. Their wedding breakfast was followed by an evening party, and while guests were still not permitted to dance, the Covid rules had changed so they could have their first dance. It was a long time coming, but so great to see wedding days looking much more like they used to!
