WELCOME

Thank you for stopping by our blog! We are Pete and Laura and we're wedding photographers based in Lancashire, although we'll shoot weddings anywhere! This is us to the left, looking suitably loved up. We're rather easy to tell apart, Pete has a beard and Laura doesn't.
We're obsessed with taking pictures. We love to take pictures where there's some real emotion involved. We don't really care about pretty buildings and fields (well, within reason - some are very pretty!), but give us a newly married couple that want to have a kiss and a cuddle and we can take pictures all day. Which is convenient, given our choice of job.
This blog is where you can see sneak previews of recent weddings we've photographed, portrait shoots, and any exciting news about us (our parents also read this!). We hope you enjoy looking!

Charlotte + Rickie’s Wedding at Formby Hall – Part One

Friday, 30th July, 2010

Charlotte and Rickie officially had the most CRAZY weather on their wedding day – we had glorious sunshine, gales and torrential downpours! They had their reception at the lovely Formby Hall and filled it full of gorgeous details (themed around their fabulous American honeymoon plans). It was such a fun day!

Meanwhile Pete was hanging out with the boys…

Rickie looks this happy almost ALL of the time!

Make up time!

The ceremony was held at Saint John’s Church…

Rickie was a little nervous!

This was about the time the wind kicked in!

Time to get married…

Check out Part Two for some of my favourite speeches pictures ever and some dance off action!

When we left the church the sky was blue; when we arrived at Formby Hall we were greeted with this…

Luckily the sun came out again in time for a few portraits…

Gorgeous details…

The speeches were awesome!

Dancing time! The DJ was the lovely Jeff Wood, we were loving his amazing new white sparkly dance floor!

Wedding at Stanley House – Bernadette + JP Part 1

Wednesday, 28th July, 2010

A couple of weeks ago we photographed the lovely wedding of Bernadette & JP. It was our first time at Stanley House which is a really lovely venue surrounded by beautiful grounds, and some cows – but more of them in part 2. We also liked all the Todd White prints everywhere – we got one for our first anniversary a couple of years ago but I don’t think our collection is ever going to compete with this place!

Bernadette & JP are a wonderfully cute couple, which we discovered on their engagement shoot a few months ago. They just make each other laugh, all the time. Awesome.

Anyway, here are some pictures!
The vicar offered Monkey and a Lion to Bernadette & Tiger to symbolise each other. Or for use as voodoo dolls. I was at the back of the church so I didn’t hear exactly which.
Coming up next in part 2 – the cows attack, speeches, and some great dancing action.
