New House Farm Wedding, Lake District – Leigh and Gemma

LAKE DISTRICT WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY – LEIGH AND GEMMA’S WEDDING AT NEW HOUSE FARM

I love the Lake District! I’m so lucky to live so close to this beautiful part of England and even luckier to get to visit it fairly regularly to be a part of so many amazing weddings.

Leigh and Gemma are two of the most easy going people I have ever met. Gemma’s constant warming smile and Leigh’s laid-back persona made them an absolute pleasure to be around. They chose the stunning New House Farm in the Lorton Valley for the place they would marry each other. It was my first time at this venue and what a beautifully stunning wedding venue it is!

NEW HOUSE FARM, LORTON VALLEY – CREATIVE DOCUMENTARY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

Situated in the north-west of the Lake District, New House Farm is filled with character and history and is a wonderful place to tie the knot. Log fires, original features, stunning scenery and the hayloft of an old converted barn are just some of what this venue has going for it.

Gemma and Leigh’s New House Farm wedding was so much fun. The rainy weather didn’t stop us getting out and enjoying some of the fifteen acres on offer. Their wedding was packed with fun, laughter, plenty of dancing and one of the best Father of the Bride speeches I’m yet to witness! It was lovely catching up with the extremely talented Chris Cook magician who was let loose to keep the guests entertained. The day’s entertainment didn’t stop there though with musical legends Hipster keeping the guests dancing the day and night away.

This Lake District wedding was a pleasure to be a part of. Grab a coffee and enjoy my highlight’s of Leigh and Gemma’s wedding…

Anthony & Carla - Storrs Hall Wedding Photography

ANTHONY AND CARLA’S LAKE DISTRICT WEDDING AT STORRS HALL, WINDERMERE

This was my debut visit to the magnificent Storrs Hall in Windermere. Storrs is situated on the shores of Lake Windermere in the stunning English Lake District. The venue itself is a quite fabulous and grand old country house that overlooks Lake Windermere and has simply breathtaking views of this stunning part of Cumbria.

Carla and Anthony’s Storrs Hall wedding was so much fun, from start to finish. They certainly picked a rock star cast of wedding professionals for their wonderful summer wedding on the lake. It was awesome catching up with and working alongside some fantastic suppliers for this wedding including video skills by Adam Wing, music and entertainment by the crazy talented Jennie Sawdon and The Rush. Not forgetting some ridiculous cake skills by Kelly-dee Towriess of Pink Frosting Cake Company.

LAKE DISTRICT WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

After hanging out with Anthony and his groomsmen and Carla and her Bridesmaids we headed to the stunning Catholic Church of Amabilis in Ambleside for their ceremony. Anthony, Carla and their wedding party then headed back to Storrs Hall to begin the celebrations. A Lake District wedding wouldn’t be complete without a brief trip out on the lake.

Overall this was such an amazing wedding. Anthony and Carla are such a lovely, happy couple who were a pleasure to be around. It was an honour to capture their day for them.

2015 Highlights

Lodore Falls Wedding Photography - Aran & Lisa

This was my first visit to the Lodore Falls Hotel in Keswick for the wedding of Aran and Lisa. It’s a fact that I love the Lake District and I often remind myself how lucky I am to have this incredible part of the world on my doorstep.

Aran and Lisa are simply wonderful people who are so obviously in love. I had such a brilliant day with them and their friends and family a few weeks ago. I love when my bride and grooms are up for stepping out of their comfort zones to get ‘a shot’. These two were no let up to that and they just threw themselves into it all day.

This wedding was so much fun. Massive congrats you two

Lakeside Hotel Wedding Photography - Lake District - Chris & Caroline

Massive congratulations to Chris and Caroline who were married a few weeks ago at the beautiful Lakeside Hotel in Newby Bridge. It was my first wedding at the Lakeside and what a brilliant wedding it was.

The weather was on our side, which is always a risk up in the Lake District. The sun shone pretty much all day which meant we could head out on a boat for an hour after the wedding breakfast.

Overall this was such a great wedding to be part of. Chris and Caroline are so lovely and so much fun.

Sit back and check out their wedding…
