 Some Favourite Wedding Photographs From 2018

I wanted to show you some of last year’s wedding photographs from the Peak District and the Sheffield area. 2018 was a particularly nice year in that I was privileged to be the wedding photographer for some particularly nice couples. In fact every one of them was a joy to work with, as were their families and guests. I wish them all the very best.

Obviously I can’t post every photograph that I’ve taken but I’ve separated out just a few favourites to show you. These are mainly wedding photographs from the Peak District but also others from Sheffield and Cheshire. Buxton played host to quite a few of my weddings this year. Others included Losehill House, Thornbridge Hall, and The Maynard. There were other weddings in the Peak District and of course quite a few in Sheffield.

One new venue to me this year was particularly beautiful. This was a marquee reception in the grounds of the exquisite Old Gawsworth Hall in Cheshire. Just standing in front of that half-timbered piece of history was breathtaking.
