Karen & Anthony - Vallum Farm Wedding, ...

Karen & Anthony’s wedding day at Vallum Farm in Northumberland; an amazing wedding venue which is fast becoming one of my favourites to shoot. The converted barn is perfectly set up for every type of wedding with marquee style drapes and fairy lights, there’s tonnes of outdoor space too with stunning views of the Northumberland countryside and a teepee bar, perfect for a sunset cocktail while you rest your dancing feet! Karen and Anthony really made it their own with a lovely mix of traditional and rustic details, with hessian and wooden signage, twinkling gin bottles and endless gorgeous floral decorations.

Charlotte & Matthew - The Parlour at ...

I first met Charlotte and Matt in 2019 for a lovely wedding chat over coffee at Dil and the Bear in Tynemouth, where they told me all about their exciting plans for their wedding day in May 2020(!) Sadly as we all know, the universe had other ideas and their plans unfortunately had to be put on hold. But fast forward over two years to September 2022 and they were finally able to celebrate their wedding day, surrounded by their family and friends at one of my favourite local venues, The Parlour at Blagdon.

Charlotte & Matt had an intimate and heartfelt ceremony in the beautiful, newly converted Smithy at The Parlour, followed by cocktails and confetti in the picturesque grounds. After a couple of drinks and celebrations with their guests, we drove down the road to Northumberlandia to take some amazing newlywed portraits in the incredible landscape and woodlands there! It was a beautiful, sunny day and the location was just perfect for capturing some stunning photos of the happy couple.

Back at The Parlour, The Willow Room was beautifully set up for Charlotte and Matt’s reception with tequila and travel themed favours and a gorgeous wedding cake featuring a tiny model of their adorable pup taking a bite! Their guests enjoyed some excellent speeches from Matt the groom, the father of the bride, maid of honour and best man shortly followed by an absolutely delicious three course meal (thank you for feeding me, guys!)

The Parlour has a newly renovated outdoor space with cosy seating, firepits and a canopy which made for lovely interlude before the evening celebrations kicked off. This was one of the best evening receptions I’ve had the joy of photographing for a while. The fun and elation was infectious and I couldn’t help grinning from ear to ear with every epic dance move I caught on camera! Congrats Charlotte and Matt for throwing such an incredible wedding, it was such a huge pleasure to be your photographer!

Sarah & Kev, Vallum Farm Wedding. 26th July 2018

I had the absolute pleasure of photographing Sarah & Kev's Wedding at Vallum Farm last month. Sarah and I have known each other since nursery so I was really happy when she asked me to photograph her wedding! They had a beautiful reception held in the marquee with fairy-lit-gin-bottle centre pieces, cocktail themed tables and a bake off style cake table! Vallum Farm is surrounded by stunning Northumberland countryside and it was the hottest day of the year. It was an amazing day to photograph and I feel very honoured to have been chosen as their wedding photographer :) Congrats again Sarah & Kev! I wish you both a full and happy life together! ♥️

Katie & Matt's Engagement Shoot at Woodhill Hall, Northumberland

Katie & Matt's Engagement Shoot at Woodhill Hall, Northumberland

Last Sunday I had the pleasure of visiting the Luxury Northumberland Wedding Venue that is Woodhill Hall. It's no wonder that this stunning place has won awards for "Most Romantic" and "Best Wedding Venue" in the North East and Northumberland. The lovely Katie and Matt are getting married here in September and this was our chance to check out some potential spots for photographs on their big day. And we certainly won't be short of options!
