May 10th was the wedding of the lovely Sarah & Jenna! A classically grey English spring day, held in its entirety at the Woodlands hotel in Leeds. There was lots of laughter all round, loads of thought put into the details and a seriously cool cake! There were also shoes everywhere and I visualised this compilation as I…
I met the lovely Carly & Darren today for a pre-wed at Oulton Hall on the South side of Leeds, heading Wakey way. It’s the first time I’ve been there and it rules! I’ve glimpsed one or two snaps of it’s pillared colonnade before but that’s about it. On turning into the grounds, you drive…

I’m giddy as a kipper about it! You can see the couple are fans of Disney movies – it’s the most fairytale castle I’ve ever…
The Leeds International Swimming Pool facility closed in October 2007 and is scheduled for demolition in June this year. A gifted photographer and friend, James Lester, likes to go ‘Urban Exploring’ and I decided to join him in a bid to document the last period of this Leeds landmark, with a possible plan to run…
An inspiration Mr. A; excellent as always.
Hey Barn, love these photos, especially the one of the desk down in the dungeon!

I was lucky enough to be asked to Ireland recently to hang out with and photograph a band I’m really good friends with [in fact I used to play bass in this band once upon a time]. They booked Clare & I a flight and off we flew to get some promotional pictures for their…
Looking good Sir! The perspective shots were great “craic” and came out really well.
It’s been a busy patch of Pre-Wedding shoots for me recently in the run up to a wedding-filled May! I’m really looking forward to it and have spent a lot of April clearing my desk, organising my calendar & tweaking my workflow for ultimate efficiency come crunch-time! The couple of weddings I shot through January…
