Lauren & Nathaniel's Fishlake Mill wedding
It’s lucky to have rain on your wedding day, some say. I would agree, because it made this Fishlake Mill wedding of of Lauren and Nathaniel that much more memorable.
There were quite a few bright and cheerful umbrellas, but there was a plethora of smiles and laughter to chase any hint of harsh weather away!
Lauren and Nathaniel tied the knot in October of this year, at a gorgeous venue called Fishlake Mill a windmill wedding venue.
This stunning gem set in the Doncaster countryside in South Yorkshire is a restored 18th century corn mill that was built in 1774 and restored to glory in 2008. It was the perfect backdrop for Nathaniel and Lauren’s gorgeous outdoor wedding, adding a graceful charm to the proceedings.

The overcast, windy day did nothing to dampen the spirits of Lauren and Nathaniel’s family and friends, who made the day tremendously memorable.
Nathaniel’s Mum Joanne and his Grandma Anita contributed a truly special gift: they made the fondant-draped cake and delightful cupcakes that were shared with the wedding party and guests. Each of the cupcakes was a little work of art (and delicious, too) that complemented the wedding cake perfectly.
Lauren was stunning in an Art Deco-inspired gown of ivory satin overlaid with soft tulle and silver beaded lace. The dress, by Angel Brides was perfectly set off by her rhinestone beaded peep-toe satin mary janes. She was surrounded by a bevy of beautiful women, including her lovely bridesmaids in baby blue.
Nathaniel looked handsome in a grey blueish suit and a baby blue tie that matched the bridesmaid’s dresses.
Festive paper pompoms made the tent sparkle with delightful charm, and the sweet bunting was a perfect touch. The card box and guest book artwork were the perfect way to capture well wishes to keep forever. Lauren carried beautiful dried flowers by Artisan Dried Flower Co., which was a really smart way to plan ahead and keep your wedding flowers forever!

The wedding wasn’t an over-the-top affair full of pomp and circumstance. It was a special, intimate event meant to be shared with family and friends without pretense.
The new Mr. and Mrs. sat amongst their guests rather than at a top table, and they thoroughly enjoyed their evening as they tied the knot to become Husband and Wife.
Lauren and Nathaniel had one of the most amazing weddings and I feel so fortunate to have been able to capture these memories.
I with you every happiness in the future. Congratulations!

Gail & Gary's wedding at Owston Hall in Doncaster
I’m super happy to be able to share Gail and Gary’s wedding at Owston Hall in Doncaster on my blog today. This adventurous couple had travelled the globe together before ting the knot in Owston. The couple had a super relaxed ceremony at Owston Church which is just over the fence from where Gail was getting ready and she got to the church on a golf buggy!
The wedding reception was held at the nearby Owston Hall, one of local wedding venues in Doncaster. We all all walked there. It was a perfect summer day though and a short walk seemed like a good idea. It was just over the fence as well so nobody even thought of driving.

I really enjoyed my time at Owston Hall and everyone seemed to have a great time. We even had a surprise performance from a couple of singing waiters. It's such a lovely place for a wedding and only a few minutes away from where I live.
Thank you so much for choosing me to be your photographer!

Kelly & Nathan's wedding at The Stables in Doncaster
Kelly and Nathan married at The Stables in a small village of High Melton near Doncaster in South Yorkshire. It was a beautiful and intimate wedding of a couple of fans of Lego, The Lord of The Rings and The Star Wars saga featuring some beautiful handmade decorations and a half Lord of The Rings and half Star Wars wedding cake.
It was also one of the last weddings being held at this beautiful venue before it closed its doors. As a photographer I miss this place a lot but hopefully one day the new owner will decide to turn it back into a wedding place to offer wedding packages Doncaster again.

Colwick Hall Wedding - Yasmin and Tausif's Wallima
I am sure you have seen a lot of fairy tale weddings in movies but have you ever heard about a real-life fairy tale wedding? Well, Yasmin and Tausif’s wedding at Colwick Hall is the perfect example of such a wedding. The day dawned crisp and clear. Underneath the clear blue sky, the couple got ready for the special day of their lives. Colwick Hall served to be the venue for Walima.
About Colwick Hall Wedding Venue
Just outside Nottingham is the spacious and impressive Colwick Hall. This magnificent Palladian style Georgian mansion is one of the leading venues which host Asian weddings. The couple’s photos were taken in the back garden of Colwick Hall. The hall gives traditional and comfortable vibes. Beautiful landscaped gardens and fountains are ideal for the most treasured photographs of the day. This luxurious hall proved to be the perfect gathering place for the two families.
Getting ready at Colwick Hall
Moving on towards the highlight of the wedding. Yes, you guessed it right! Our radiant and breathtaking bride “Yasmin”. As beautiful as her name, Yasmin stole the show with her elegant personality and dazzling dress. Yasmin chose to wear a “maxi” for her Walima. This maxi was fully embroidered alongside a net dupatta. Safe to say that the pictures have done justice to capture the shine and sparkle of the dress. While wearing breakneck high heels, hands covered with the rich color of henna (mehndi), and holding a beautiful bridal clutch the bride got ready to meet the love of her life. The dupatta setting was done elegantly whilst keeping in mind the traditional accessories such as; tikka and jhumar.
“Tausif” being an energetic and strikingly handsome groom entered with epic grace. The couple walked down the staircase. The photographs on the staircase embodied royal vibes. Clear blue sky on the back garden of Colwick Hall served as perfect lighting for wedding pictures. A perfect blend of lighting, exposure, and tone range indeed.
Colwick Hall Wedding – Venue decor and food
The couple chose to have floral décor at their wedding. The delicate flowers created a vivid and strong appearance. The food was flavorsome and the cutlery was in perfect match with subtle curtains.
Traditional wedding activities
The women holding flowers on their plates welcomed the couple (a tradition in Asian weddings). Now coming to the most fun awaited part of the wedding – the groomsmen and bridesmaids, bhangra party, music, and feasting. Happiness and laughter filled up the walls of the Colwick Hall. Flowers being the symbol of love and romance were presented to the couple from guests. The couple cut the cake. The cake as shown in the pictures was inexplicable fairy and creamy. The groomsmen did the bhangra, speeches were made and wedding songs were sung to make the day even more memorable.
This is how the beautiful day came to an end.
As the night approached, the couple took some more beautiful and intimate pictures to create a lifelong memory.

Wedding at The Principal Hotel York - Natalia and Robert
Today’s blog is a beautiful wedding I was lucky enough to shoot at the beautiful Principal Hotel in York. The hotel is located in central York, just a few minute walk from The National Railway Museum and it backs onto the main train station. A lovely location for a wedding, just outside the historic walls of this North Yorkshire city founded by the ancient Romans.
Heart warming is absolutely the right word for this wedding. In every frame, in every moment I captured you can see the genuine affection Robert has for Natalia, and how she couldn’t stop smiling whenever he’s near. It makes my jobs so much easier when the couple are so wrapped up in each other, they barely notice I’m there! Yes, I work hard to get the most out of every shot, but it’s just a joy to work on shots like these.
Natalia and Robert’s Principal Hotel wedding in York
Let’s not forget the beautiful backdrop the couple had chosen to stage their special day. The Principal Hotel York… what a place! I was thrilled when I heard the reception was going to be held there. It makes it fun to provide wedding photography in York when you have such an amazing couple and a beautiful venue like this to work with.
Check out these pictures from Natalia and Robert’s wedding at the Principal Hotel in the heart of York.

Lisa & Rob's wedding at Christ Church in Doncaster
Have you ever dreamed of having a fairy tale wedding? This Doncaster wedding was truly a dream come true, and I couldn’t wait to share these stunning pictures!
It was a magical day at Christ Church in the heart of Doncaster a small town in South Yorkshire on which we celebrated the wedding of Lisa and Rob. This was actually my first wedding at this iconic Church. This wedding is what comes to mind when I think of a true fairy tale wedding. There was a feeling in the air that just sparkled with excitement and love, a feeling that only got stronger as the day continued on.
Christ Church wedding in Doncaster
Earlier in the day there was rain, and the afternoon progressed with overcast skies. The weather did nothing to dampen the spirits of the wedding party and guests, however. The ceremony at Christ Church was followed by a reception at the Doncaster Deaf Trust College which had been beautifully transformed into a wedding reception venue Doncaster.
Rob’s side of the wedding party was filled with a large crew of family and friends looking handsome in deep blue suits. The dapper wedding party included Arthur and Charlie. The boys came down the aisle together while Charlie carried the “It’s too late to run, Dad” sign with a charming grin.
Lisa was, in true fairytale wedding fashion, reminiscent of Cinderella at the ball. She looked joyful and elegant in a ballgown wedding dress with intricate beading on the bodice and lavish layers of flowing chiffon cascading to the floor. Carrying a waterfall bouquet created using several varieties of lush pink roses, she approached her husband-to-be at the alter with sweet anticipation. Rob’s expression upon seeing her for the first time was pure happiness, while her father passed her hand over to Rob with a proud and quiet love.
The ceremony was genuine, sentimental and truly heartfelt; there was a flurry of handkerchiefs seen at several moments throughout. It felt like an explosion of love and excitement the moment they exchanged their first kiss as husband and wife!
Rob and Lisa exited the church as man and wife into a joyful cloud of colorful, heart-shaped confetti as the guests cheered and applauded, before being whisked off to the reception in a hired car. Before the reception, we took some lovely pictures with the bride and groom as well as the entire wedding party in both an orchard as well as a football pitch at the back of the wedding venue.
Lisa was accompanied by three of her closest lovely ladies wearing blush pink with sparkling accents, echoing the lush pink tones of the wedding colors. Capturing their beauty was incredibly easy, obviously.

The reception was gorgeously decorated in various shades of pink and gold, including beautiful touches like the lovely seating chart, overflowing floral centerpieces and lighted letters spelling out “Love.” Highlights of the night included Charlie sharing a prepared speech during the toasts, and the lovely, emotion-filled father-daughter dance. After most of the tears had been wrung out from the guests, the dancing kicked off with the energetic sounds from the James Sunderland band.
It was a truly magical fairytale wedding and I’m so glad I was there as a wedding photographer in Doncaster to capture the memories of the day for this truly special couple.
Congratulations Lisa & Rob! I really enjoyed photographing your special day and it was my pleasure to be a small part of it. Your extra touches with memorable photo moments and keeping your guests involved made for an awesome time.
