I recently caught up with Danielle & Matt ahead of their wedding at Chevin Country Park Hotel, near Otley.

Instead of meeting at the venue, we decided to catch up in Bramley Falls Park near where we both live.  It’s a beautiful spot where I often walk my dog, so after a pint at The Abbey Inn, we set off into the park to practice our posing!

I always find it really helpful to put my couples through a practice ‘pre-wedding’ shoot before their big day, so they know what to expect and know how it feels!

They’re also a great opportunity for us all to get to know one another better.

But really, these shoots are about showing a couple that I can make them look great, they can have a bit of a laugh and it’s not something to worry about!

This is a spot I’ve often walked past with my pooch and thought I’d love to put a couple there.

Now I have!
