Matt & Nicola at Eaves Hall on 14th August - http://fairfieldphotographic.nextproof.com/galleries/nicandmattwedding

Fuller blog posts for each wedding will hopefully follow in the next few days...

Adrienne & Ben's Wedding at Stirk House, Gisburn.

The first day of August say me head back along the M65 to photograph the wedding of Adrienne & Ben at Immanuel Church, Oswaldtwistle and then Stirk House, Gisburn, nr Clitheroe, after a brief stop at the ruins of Sawley Abbey.


Family, friends and guests can access an online gallery of a selection of wedding photographs here. The password is their married name in lowercase, plus an exclamation mark e.g. smith!

At the end of July I was lucky enough to be the wedding photographer for Alex & Chris' wedding, which took place at St John's, Crawshawbooth and the scenic Eaves Hall near Clitheroe.

Catherine and Rob's Wedding on 27th June at the JJB Stadium












As Catherine and Rob are massive rugby fans, so it seemed quite fitting that they celebrated their wedding at the JJB stadium.

Family, friends and guests can access an online gallery of a selection of wedding photographs here. The password is their married name in lowercase, plus an exclamation mark e.g. smith!

The couple opted for a small and intimate wedding which began with a service at St. John's Church in Atherton. The 3 adult bridemaids wore an unusual, but very attractive shade of teal and this was echoed in the mens cravats and waistcoats by Slaters.














Catherine herself wore a beautiful beaded dress from Brides of Leigh, that was decorated with tiny seed pearls and her veil was edged with tiny crystals. She carried a bouquet of white tulips by Hannah Simons and was delivered to the church in a blue Beauford by Memorable Journeys (not dissimilar from the car we had for our own wedding - 5 years ago next week!).










After the service, the couple stopped at Mesnes park in Wigan for some extra photos.
























The reception was held at the JJB stadium, a very special place for Catherine and Rob. We took photos of them next to the pitch, in the tunnel and even in the changing rooms.



















We have been lucky to work with some really lovely couples this year so far. Catherine and Rob have been really fab and we wish them all the best.

Pam and Mark's Wedding on 20th June at Barton Grange


Pam and Mark were married on 20th June this year at Euxton Parish Church followed by a reception at Barton Grange in Preston.

Family, friends and guests can access an online gallery of a selection of wedding photographs here. The password is their married name in lowercase, plus an exclamation mark e.g. smith!

We love shooting weddings at Euxton Parish Church. Aside from the fact that it's our local church where our daughter Siena was christened a few weeks ago, it has a really lovely atmosphere, a friendly vicar and is stunning for photos.


Mark and the guys were taken to the church in style in the most enormous limo we have ever seen.


Pam looked beautiful in a strapless embroidered and beaded gown. She was accompanied by three bridesmaids in claret dresses and carried a stunning bouquet of orchids.

Her transport to the church was a little more traditional as she opted for a vintage car. however, she did join Mark in the limo after the service as the wedding party travelled to Barton Grange for the reception.


Pam and Mark's wedding cake was really something special. It had been designed by one of Pam's friends and was covered in sugar orchids that matched Pam's bouquet perfectly.




Entertainment was provided by the Master of Ceremonies who encouraged guests to play games during the Wedding Breakfast.














We wish the happy couple the very best in their married lives together.

Talitha and Paul's Wedding at Haighton Manor














Talitha and Paul were married on 6th June at Haighton Manor, a historic 17th century country house situated just outside Preston.

Family, friends and guests can access an online gallery of a selection of wedding photographs here. The password is their married name in lowercase, plus an exclamation mark e.g. smith!

Paul and the guys were getting ready at the manor itself and Paul got to arrive in style in a silver porsche.













Meanwhile, Talitha and the bridesmaids got ready in Preston. Talitha was wearing a stunning beaded gown with full train and carried a lilac and white bouquet of freesia and roses. Her bridemaids were her two sisters and two best friends who wore dresses in a rich shade of lilac.




























Paul proposed to Talitha at the top of the Eiffel Tower. As a tribute to this, all the tables had model Eiffel Towers, which Paul had made himself, as their centrepieces.



















Despite some precarious weather at times, it was a fantastic day and Talitha and Paul are a really lovely couple to work with. We wish them the very best for the future.
