"Toughest road marathon in the world"

It was my duty to support my husband on Saturday at the Langdale Marathon, (in a purely journalistic capacity, I should point out) - a race that certainly takes its toll on those who dare enter! He had decided to enter a "local" event for his first marathon and on asking him why he had chosen this gruelling race, he answered "because its the cheapest" - well no wonder! (I should say that my stepson and I did a bit of our own physical activity that day as we hiked up nearby hills and waited in the sun for the weary to pass, handing gels and clean socks to our exhausted, but very timely runner at the end of his first lap..) This explains the omission of Colin coming through the finish line as we were sleeping in the car at that point.. An exhausting day for all of us - oops!

Neil & Helen

A beautiful wedding with a great Scottish twist! The Bride and Groom braved the elements at the Lytham Windmill and the celebration was a stunning success - another day to remember and a joy to have been a part of..

new packaging for e-albums!

As we all know, wedding photography is very expensive now as always, as suppliers albums are nothing short of an art-form offering incredibly luxurious handmade products, that not all couples can afford..! This is why I am offering e-packages so that the bride and groom can make their own personal books together (after all, where has all that time come from now they aren't organising a wedding?!)

You might think to yourself, "what, so you get a cd - whoop-di-doo?".. well there's more than one way to skin a cat.. check out the beautiful packaging I lovingly made for my latest bride, hand made personalised labels and hand tied organza and satin - yes, not just any cd.., in fact the package includes 2 movie dvds that will play on your dvd player in your living room - a great e-gift for granny too!

Simon & Charlotte - Lancashire Wedding

Jason & Victoria - Lytham Wedding

The entire day was a joy - the weather broke fine, just in time and laughter prevailed. A joy to photograph and an privilege to have been part of their special day. Definitely one to remember.

Speedlights session

Using a combination of reflectors and speedlights, we added drama to the sky and the model - thanks to Steph Hallam, Andy S, Lisa Hawes, and all on set!

Debra on the beach

We had a blast doing this - it was the first outdoor lifestyle shoot in a while and Debra was a star - no fear as she changed outfits in a brisk wind behind the rocks on the beach.. The result? Just what I was looking for - beautiful.
