Last Saturday I joined the very lovely Fiona & George for their big day at Heaton Mount in Bradford.

It’s the first time I’ve shot a wedding there and this beautiful 1860’s Italianate mansion, within the home of Bradford University’s School of Management, was a splendid location to enjoy a chilled, summery afternoon and evening knees up!

I hope you enjoy the story of their special day!

While Hamish headed over to the chaps in Idle, I joined the girls in Eccleshill at Fiona’s family home to document the morning’s fun with the bridal party.

The cakes were fun, with a ‘proper’ cake, and one made by their kids!  See if you can guess which was which.
