Ribble Valley Winter Wedding Photography

Ribble Valley Winter wedding photography

This dreamy Ribble Valley winter wedding photography at Shireburn Arms has to be one of my favourite ever festive weddings. Mostly because of Sophie & Matt, but also because of the dreamy golden hour we appeared at Cromwell bridge. That midday sunshine is always a corker at this time year. As you can see Ribble Valley winter wedding photography looks stunning, so don’t let the cooler months PUT you off. Soft enough to shoot into but strong enough to give the perfect golden glow. This was my first December wedding at the Shireburn Arms, although over the years I have photographed at this Clitheroe wedding venue in pretty much all seasons, with my other favourite month being April, when the cherry blossom tree in the garden is in full blossom. If you get just the right window the tree will have enough blossom on the tree but also a layer of pink blossom on the ground too. Making the prettiest of photos – link here to see the proof!

Get to know the couple!

We met as is not uncommon these days on a dating app!

Clearly Matts charm won me over and we decided to go on a date to Oast house in Manchester. We compared our IMDB movie ratings like the nerds that we are and hit off off straight away – it was like we’d always known each other.

We had initially visited the Shireburn Arms two years earlier for some pub grub after doing the Tolkien Trail. The pub was set up for a wedding the following day and we both commented on how beautiful it looked. Fast forward to last September after Matt had popped the question and we went for a viewing, we knew this was the venue for us and booked it for the December of the same year, only 3 months later. No time like the present!
