Gemma & Steve | Wedding Photography | The Merchant Taylors Hall | York

Well it was a day everyone was talking about weather wise! On the 4th February I had the pleasure of photographing Gemma & Steve’s wedding at the Merchant Taylors Hall in York. The day started at Gemma’s mums house just over the road from the hall and boy was it cold outside!!! The forecast said snow by 3:00pm and it was looking likely. After spending some time with Gemma I went to meet Steve and the boys at the Vahe Bar on Goodramgate. From there we headed for a few casual shots on the way back to the hall. It was then a brisk walk across the road again to meet Gemma leaving the house. All the time getting colder! The day went well and the snow did arrive at about 2:30pm and came down thick and fast!. Gemma & Steve were great sports and we ventured out for a walk to Grey’s Court just up the road getting some very wintery looking shots along the way. Below is are a few of my favourite shots from the day as well as a slideshow. Enjoy!

Vicky & Clive | Wedding Photography | The Royal York Hotel | Yorkshire

The wedding of Vicky & Clive was my final wedding of 2011. The whole day took place at the Royal York Hotel in the heart of city. Since my last wedding at the hotel the York wheel was now situated in the grounds! It’s a beast standing at nearly 53 meteres high. I had to make use of it so shots with the boys was first on the cards and then later on it was a trip with Vicky & Clive in the VIP pod! Vicky & Clive had also arranged it so all the guests had a go on the wheel, which helped when I wanted to get them all outside for the group shots! A fun Christmas wedding was had by all. Below are just a few shots from the day.
