One of my favourite Ribble Valley wedding venues for beautiful wedding photography is the Outbarn in Clitheroe. If you haven’t seen this venue up close, you must visit one of their open days. They run around 6 each year. Mainly in February and March, and then later in the season around October and November time. Looking forward to Outbarn wedding photography in 2024. I currently have 5 bookings  in the diary, plus several bookings are already secured for 2026. More Outbarn wedding inspiration

Couldn’t recommend Jules enough. Jules made our wedding day so special and stress free. The communication was amazing and we knew exactly what to expect on the day. Jules also checked for any important people we wanted on our photos to ensure these weren’t missed out. Jules captured every gorgeous moment of our wedding day and precious moments we didn’t get to see in the madness of the day itself. Jules is really relaxed and makes the photos fun, rather than having a camera in your face all day she really makes it feel so natural. We’ve had our previews and they’re more than we could have hoped for. We can’t wait to see the rest of the photos. Thank you so much – if anyone is looking for a wedding photographer, look no further!

Proposal – We got engaged in Chester. Joe had taken us away for a relaxing night away and a spa weekend. Joe had “nipped back up to the room” to get our things ready, however he was actually writing “marry me” on the bed out of rose petals and rose petals all over the floor with fairy lights leading up to it.

Our Venue – I found the Outbarn on Instagram, our baby was around 5/6 months old and we decided if we didn’t get married now, we weren’t sure when we would get the chance to and wanted to do it when our daughter would be involved.

Beautiful Hobbit Hill in the heart of the Ribble Valley it’s a stunning location for sure. Kari & Liam’s celebrations were my fourth time as a Hobbit Hill Wedding  – More about this gorgeous pair  special day further down the blog, but for now read their awesome review!!!!

Rave Reviews 

Where do I even start with Jules. I am lost for words but I’ll try! My main worry about our wedding was that my partner absolutely HATES photos, I don’t think he would’ve been bothered if I told him I hadn’t even booked a photographer! It was a major concern of mine how he was going to deal with it on the day and I was really stressing for a long time about it. But oh WOW. After the ceremony we went off for our couples photos. I cannot explain the difference I saw in my husband. He was totally relaxed because of her. He was actually enjoying posing for the pictures!!! Even to the point he was showing Jules some of his own new poses he’d come up with. He was absolutely loving life and from the last 7 years I’ve been with Liam I have never ever witnessed this from him around a camera. From the minute I met Jules I felt completely at ease, I felt like I’d always known her !!! Our pictures speak for themselves and I could actually cry because she has made all my dreams come true having the pictures I’ve always dreamed of having at my wedding! From the bottom of both our hearts… THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!

Wedding photographing at Bartle Hall, is a complete treat. Absolutely love this venue, what a gem. Over the last 4 years I’ve photographed around 20 wedding and have 5 in my diary pre booked for  2025 and 2026 too.  The stunning surrounding woodlands make a gorgeous backdrop for your wedding portraits as well as the elegant period features in the country house hotel. You can  choose to have your ceremony inside the manor house, the barn or outdoors. So with all this choice & accommodation you can see why its so popular with couples across Lancashire and the North West. Wedding Photography at Bartle Hall is always a joy for me  Wedding Photography at Bartle Hall also get the BEST sunsets. There that so many gorgeous spots to catch this.

From the moment we met her we knew she was the photographer for us. Prior to the wedding we had a pre wedding shoot with Jules which was brilliant. She made us feel so comfortable and the photos were beautiful. On the day Jules was amazing! She fitted right in and went above and beyond. She was more like a friend on the day. We are in love with our photos and can’t thank Jules enough. She captured the day perfectly and we couldn’t ask for anything better

Meet my Bartle Hall Couple!

We met when we were 17 years old at our mutual friends house party (he is one of our groomsman and takes every opportunity to remind that he introduced us ), we have been together 12 years this year

Cameron bought the ring ( I wasn’t aware) he went with his mum and my best friend to pick it. He had planned to propose during a weekend away in York, but he got too excited and proposed on a random week night in his bedroom at his mum and dads house, as I was going to leave….he shouted me back upstairs and he was down on one knee.

Bartle was the first venue we visited and instantly loved it. The surrounding gardens are beautiful and we love the contrast between the country house and barn.

I LOVE photographing at new venues, so  being booked by Charlotte & Joe to be their Victoria Warehouse Wedding Photographer was a big thumbs up. Don’t get me wrong I love all my Ribble Valley favourites &  the wedding venues that I’m lucky enough get too every season. However there’s something nice about seeing a venue for the first and challenge of eyeballing all the best spots for images. Where is the light looking beautiful, interesting colours and unusual backdrops. Victoria Warehouse is definitely an Icon building. Based in Trafford Park, Manchester, close to  Manchester United football ground and the O2 music venue. It was originally a old cotton mill, back in the day, so has bags of character, quirk and is definitely a different vibe for a wedding venue. ABSOLUTELY love it! – its soooo my bag. Would love to go back! – so if this it your wedding venue, hit the link below for a personal quote.

I LOVE to find out a bit more about how my couples met and how they chose their stunning wedding venue!

• How did you meet?

Charlotte and Joe met in April of 2014 on Tinder! While studying in her 2nd year of Uni, Charlotte would swipe carefully on tinder, analysing every eligible bachelors’ profile, assessing their bios and pictures before deciding whether to swipe right. Joe however, got finger ache from swiping right on EVERY SINGLE WOMAN in the hope one would be a match. Lucky for him, he’d passed Charlottes scientific profile analysis and it was a match! Weeks of texts and facetimes ensued before they eventually met in September, and by 7th October (9 years ago exactly today!) they were official! The years that followed saw 4 homes, 2 cities, 1 cat, 2 kids, holidays, getaways, and countless gigs. These two are all the cliches, the Ying to each other’s yang, a matchmade in heaven (on tinder).

• Tell me a little about the proposal

After Joe convinced Charlotte to have her nails done outside of her usual 4-week schedule, Charlotte had a suspicion that a ring might have been on its way, but she had pestered Joe to pop the question for years to no avail. One evening a few days before Christmas in 2019, Joe wanted to take Charlotte for an early Christmas present. A late-night drive to Saltburn-on-the-Sea had Charlotte confused. They pulled up at the bottom of the pier, which was illuminated in the dark with fairy lights. They both hopped out of the car watching the waves and the stars when Joe got down on one ACL damaged knee and popped the question! Saltburn holds a lot of sentiment for Charlotte as it was her late step dad’s favourite place, so it’s no surprise that a big yes and ugly crying ensued!

• What made your chose your venue?

We had loads of visits to venues planned… and VW was the first, we instantly fell in love with its alternative feel and the industrial vibe of the whole venue… I later took my gran to the venue to show her where we’d picked.. she looked around and was disgusted I’d picked somewhere that wasn’t conventionally pretty… at that point I knew id picked the perfect place hahah!

Words cannot express how amazing Jules is! From the second we met she made us feel so welcome, and at ease (and neither of us are massive fans of having our photos taken). Jules was there every step of the way and always happy to answer questions, whether it be providing straight forward, but helpful, documents to complete prior to the wedding, to advising on inspiration pics/styles etc. The day ran like clockwork with Jules’ help, with her getting the perfect photo opportunities and even mucking in to help with the bridesmaids and flowers. There were times that we completely forgot that photos were being taken as we were so relaxed. We loved receiving some sneak peek photos the day after the wedding, all of which were absolutely stunning. Jules’ turnaround was so quick, and the added extra of a highlight video was magical, and brought back the amazing feeling we had on the day of the wedding. We have a mixture of staged, comedy and candid/natural photos, and we absolutely adore each and every one of them! Thank you so much Jules for these photos that we will treasure forever. You are simply the perfect wedding photographer

Lancashire   Wedding   Photographers

I normally photography at least 2 wedding at Falcon Manor every year and ever time I always find new places within the gardens and Hall to photograph. There are those classic Falcon Manor images that are always lovely to capture. Like the beautiful back lit late evening image shot outside the front doors. Portraits on the dramatic stairs  are always a must too. I’m always most excited when I discover a new little spot where I’ve never captured before. My love of the silhouette shot is a firm favorite of mine, and at Falcon Manor there are so many spots to capture dramatic Silhouettes. The beautiful windows and doorways just lend themselves to these stunning shots.

Sarah & Luke are the most adorable couple.  This particular Falcon Manor wedding has to be my all time favourites. Not only were these guys so much fun to be around, but photographing their chilly March Winter wedding was a real treat. We popped out briefly in the fresh March air  for some cute sunlit garden portraits. Then made it back indoors to warm up for the dram of the stairwell and wherever else I could get they cuddling If Falcon Manor is your wedding venue drop me a message for your personal quote – Falcon Manor wedding Photographer

Sarah & Saz chose to have my midweek coverage for their Thursday wedding, opting to extend it from 3hrs to 5hr. There was no preparations photography needed, and their celebrations at spring Cottage ended at 6pm. So ceremony, portraits, speeches, dinner, relaxing and first dance were all fitted neatly into a 5hrs coverage. The small selection of images below from their big day, are a perfect example of how many fabulous images you receive for type of coverage. Not all weddings are the same, every couple has different needs. Looking for a Spring cottage wedding photographer to capture you day? –  I can tailor make a wedding package to suit your wedding

Jules we are so grateful to you for how amazing you have been leading up to our big day. Being so flexible throughout the whole COVID, cancelling and rebooking situation. On the day you made us both feel so at ease and captured such beautiful photos! Loads of our friends thought you were are a friend!? , as you were natural and relaxed around everyone. They also commended on how much FUN you were too. We are so pleased that we found you. Thank you for  the amazing images you captured on our day. Love the Sarah’s x x

Spring Cottage  wedding photographer

I fell in love with Spring Cottage as soon as I arrived. What a truly hidden gem of a wedding venue if you are looking for relaxed, informal vibes for your celebrations. Spring Cottage run weddings in the spring / summer peak season, from May to October. For me it the ideal venue for a intimate midweek wedding, like Sarah & Saz’s. If you are considering this venue for your wedding, I would love to be your Spring Cottage wedding photographer?

Spring Cottage is set in the beautiful Rivington woodland in Bolton.  The venue allows space internally and externally for you to celebrate with close family and friends. Whilst internal rooms are beautifully decorated, the venue can come as a blank canvas, allowing couples to add their own personal touch whether that be adding individual decor or choosing table decorations.  The grounds can also be used by you too, whether that be for photographs or just for children to play and explore. The food is incredible ( I had a delicious meal provided by the couple?) catering menu changes depending on the season and is locally sourced. I absolutely loved my first time shooting here. So many great spots for portraits. Even using the happy yellow Hen house for some snaps – I just couldn’t resist, THAT COLOUR!!

More Gorgeous weddings!

I was very lucky to be one of the first Piondemn Mill Wedding Photographer when it opened in 2021. Ponden Mill is a very cool wedding venue in Keighley, South Yorkshire. If you are looking for something a little different this cute little, quirky venue could be right up your street.Ponden Mill is set in the rolling hills of Haworth, South Yorkshire. An area that is steeped in Bronte Sisters history.  Its been restored by the owners Barbara & Richard .They have teamed up with the cool catering team ‘Outside Kitchen’, who also help run and over see the wedding side of the business.

On the outside, it looks and feels like a traditional mill but inside its a cool, quirky & chic interior.  The main dining and party area has exposed plaster walls and original features. While the bar area, houses a custom made bar, which has been created from items that were used in the mill, chesterfield sofas & funky neon signage lighting . The overall feel is relaxed with rustic vibe. While  the outdoor has is just countryside heaven.  You can get married indoors or outdoors, and the venue holds up to 150 guests indoors.

Dogs    at      Weddings

Georgia, Ben & their cute little dog Chicco , who was actually the star of the show! – were a dream to photography. Love doggies at weddings, and with more wedding venues becoming dog friendly so are doggies at weddings too couples ?

Quirky     Weddings

The Mill also has the added extra of the stunning & unique Falling Water overnight accommodation for bride & Groom. Richard and Barbara styled Falling Water on the Frank Lloyd Wright building of the same name, looking to create something that embraced and blended with its surroundings. The building invites you to settle into Yorkshire’s scenery and history. The cabin is just off the Pennine Way and you can walk a quick section or make big hikes south to the canal town of Hebden Bridge or north to East Marton.  Deer sometimes come to drink from the stream, owls hunt in the woodland and the whole area rustles with wildlife as the water flows past.
