One misty morning last week I joined an old pal Helen & her partner Richard for their pre-wedding meeting in York.

I’ve known Helen for years and she’s had me booked pretty much since she started dreaming up her big day!

It’s always a little different shooting people you know. But these two made my life nice & easy.

Richard had his eye on this little seat. Clearly just wanted a sit down and a snog.

Once upon a time I used to work for Helen can honestly say she’s the best manager I’ve ever worked for.

I spotted a blue container that made a fun background.
