Le Petit Chateau in Northumberland


As I arrived at Le Petit Chateau in Northumberland, I immediately knew that this wedding was going to be something special. The venue exuded charm and elegance, with its stunning chapel and Mediterranean-style grounds.


The girls were getting ready in the on-site cottage, a cozy and intimate setting that provided the perfect backdrop for capturing those final getting ready moments. As they laughed and sipped champagne, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement building.


Leanne and Shaun's wedding had a sophisticated yet alternative touch, with Shaun donning a casual suit that showcased his intricate tattoos and Leanne looking absolutely stunning in her gown. The guests enjoyed the spring sunshine outside, mingling over drinks and canapes as they soaked in the beautiful surroundings.


When it was time for the couple's portrait session, we ventured off to the nearby lakes and streams to capture some truly breathtaking photos at sunset. The golden light danced off the water, creating a magical, cinematic feel that perfectly captured the love between Leanne and Shaun.


As the evening wore on, the guests were treated to a sumptuous feast that left everyone raving about the incredible food. But the highlight of the night, for me, was when Leanne and Shaun took to the dance floor for their first dance. They pulled out all the stops, putting on a show complete with lights and a fog machine that added a touch of drama to the moment.


My approach to photography is all about capturing those true, timeless moments in a comfortable and low-key way. I strive to document the day as it unfolds, focusing on the emotions and the little details that make each wedding unique. Leanne and Shaun's celebration was no exception - it was a true reflection of their personalities, sophisticated and stylish with a touch of romance.


As I packed up my gear at the end of the night, I couldn't help but feel grateful to have been a part of such a beautiful day. It's moments like these that remind me why I love what I do - capturing love stories in a way that is chic, romantic, and truly unforgettable.
