If it rains, dance in the rain; if you trip over, laugh; if you feel emotional, cry without shame. Nathan and Danie's wedding at Orton Hall Hotel & Spa had this fantastically positive and relaxed vibe.

But I nearly never made it to their beautiful wedding and Nathan and Danie nearly saw each other before the ceremony…

James and Steff’s wild west themed wedding at Bassmead Manor Barns even had a sponsor!

…The international boot manufacturer Ariat.

I knew this was going to be one of my favourite ever weddings when they asked for a wild west engagement session and I created some shoot-out scenes for them!

I need to start targeting more weddings with Scottish people! Mark and Lisa-May's wedding at the Falcon Hotel in Uppingham was a barnstormer. Sometimes it was tricky to get work done as guests were so friendly they all wanted to chat and buy me a drink!

A 14 foot long T-Rex, gladiator games and a bunch of bikers - yep, Graeme and Tanith's quirky wedding at Thorney Abbey was my kind of wedding!

Pete and Annmarie's Flaxbourne Gardens wedding was a corker! They're both so darn stinking lovely that I've really wrestled with myself about how many embarrassing photos to show of them…

…my evil side one! So you’ll get to see photos of Pete’s hairy chest and the Grinder profile Pete’s best man created for him!

The whole of Keeley and Emma’s wedding day was at the Chequers Inn in Woolsthorpe, near Grantham. 

They both looked so beautiful and demure during the ceremony, but they didn’t hold back in the evening…!

The Chequers is ideal for a wedding if you’re looking for a relaxed vibe in beautiful countryside. There’s a huge hill right behind the venue and Keeley and Emma were awesome enough to agree to jump over the style and walk a little way up it to get some lovely shots.  Fluffy white clouds hovered above the hill to make the scene picture perfect.

I have a slight problem with Ben and Anna's Burwash Manor wedding photos! I captured so many shots that I'd like to put on my website, but I can't have loads of photographs of the same couple in my portfolio! So many of the photographs make me grin from ear to ear. And it's all because I can see the sheer fun, love and spirit that beams off of the faces from everyone who attended. They absolutely smashed it! And so did their awesome guests…

This was a long journey in many ways. First of all, their wedding was in North Yorkshire so I stayed in a hotel the night before and the night after their wedding. Secondly, when Ben and Charlotte responded to my Facebook advert they initially thought they hated being photographed…

I loved creating Chris and Emma’s Wyboston Lakes wedding photos. They’re both Cambridge PHD graduates and the perfect blend of crazy and sweet.

For example, Chris impersonated a monkey as he took the confetti out of Emma's hair. 

Their guests were just as much fun…

Rob and Mel’s Orton Hall wedding, was not normal....and I loved every second.

It wasn’t normal because…

...They were like working with professional models...because Mel actually is one...!! And Rob could be. They're beautiful inside and out.

...because I was mugged by a horde of children trying (and succeeding!) in stealing my loud hailer (see photographic evidence)!

…because Mel's stunning veil was as long as a cascading waterfall.

Ettington Park hotel is a stunning venue for wedding photos anyway, but you know you're at a very special wedding when…

I’m delighted to say my friend Rona's wedding to her hunk of love Lee was one of my most raucous yet (our friend's rock!). The venue was the stunning Anstey Hall in Cambridgeshire - here are their wedding photos…

I had it all with this wedding.

For a start Heacham Manor in Norfolk is fantastic for wedding photos. You’re 5 minutes from the beach and there’s a beautiful garden with a pond and rope swing. Don’t worry, the rope swing isn’t over the pond!

On top of that I had a lovely, chilled couple who looked effortlessly fantastic in front of the camera. 

When I first met Tamsyn and Shaun I asked them to describe their wedding at Irnham Hall and Aslackby Church in 3 words.

Their answer was 'Fun' 'Fun' 'Fun'.

They sounded like my kind of couple!

And oh my giddy Aunt did they deliver on their promise! And so did their guests... ...and even the vicar! There were grenades, 7ft dinosaurs, glow sticks, Champagne spraying, synchronised umbrella throwing, vicar throwing (kinda) and Peaky Blinders... ...but more on all that later.

I love creating wedding photos at Grange Farm because of the stunning countryside and the extremely friendly staff. From the moment I started Adam and Natalie's engagement photos I knew their wedding would be a doddle because they were complete naturals.

They were totally relaxed with each other and with the camera. Most people are a little apprehensive, but for these two I barely needed my magnetic charm, charisma and hilarious jokes (cough)...

Two things leap out at me when I think back at Vicky and Paul's Bassmead Manor Barns wedding photos. Firstly they were quite possibly the two best and most natural and beautiful posers a photographer could wish for. Secondly Paul's speech was the best groom's speech I've ever heard.

I probably shouldn't be quite so pleased with myself for causing a traffic jam on the A1, but I just can't help it... ...we all had so much fun - including the lorry drivers! 

It's not our fault; weddings at Sibson Inn are right next to the A1 so drivers slow down to take a look - particularly when you do what we were doing...

I knew this would be an awesome wedding to photograph from the moment I met Kristina. Ben wasn't at the initial chat, but Kristina booked me on the spot nonetheless.

Apparently this got her in a little bit of trouble when she got home, but Ben and Kristina have a rule...

...they each get to do one naughty thing each year which the other person can't shout at them for.

...Apparently I was Kristina's one! 

A year ago I didn't even know what SteamPunk was. But when Kirsty and Jules told me they were having a steampunk wedding at Normanton Church in Rutland I got pretty darned excited!

Think Mad Max... ...in a church!

Say whaaaaat!!??

As one of the few photographers who offer trash the dress photos in Cambridgeshire (btw if you don’t want to trash it you can do a rock the frock session instead!), I’m always looking for new locations and creative ideas.

Although most of my trash the dress photos are created in Cambridgeshire I’ve been as far as The Peak District to use the beautiful waterfalls they have there.
