Family Portrait Photography in West Yorkshire

Rebecca, Sam and Finley

We are looking forward very much to being the wedding photographers for Rebecca and Sam when they marry later this year in Ackworth, followed by a reception at Rogerthorpe Manor in Badsworth, near Pontefract.  Ahead of this, Rebecca and Sam decided that they would like a family portrait session in our studio, so they brought along their gorgeous baby son, Finley for some photographs together to celebrate his first birthday. 

Grandma Kay came to provide some expert entertainment; not that Finley needed much entertaining as he's such a lovely, happy baby.  He will no doubt steal the show at his mum and dad's wedding in August!

Erika & Baby L

I have been waiting a few weeks to post these images -- waiting because they were a surprise for a certain birthday guy (Erika's hubby & Baby L's daddy, Peter)! The session was a real treat because it allowed me to reconnect with Erika and her mom, Barb, and meet sweet baby L. (I say 'reconnect' because Nathan and I video-ed Erika and Peter's wedding back in my pre-official-photography days). As you can see, L was a real gem, generously sharing some fantastic smiles. Enjoy some of my favorite images from the day!

I had two versions of this pose and couldn't figure out which one I liked more so I'm sharing both...

Matt Holloway: Live from Coachella on Models.com

Women's own Matt Holloway shared his personal snaps from the Coachella Music Festival with Models.com:

Music is the first order of business at the Coachella but fashion has invaded the indie music festival: there are enough models, designers and fashionistas at this years fest to make a mini-fashion week. Women Management agent Matt Holloway took the time out to share some of his from the field images especially for MDC; you’ll spot a few familiar fashion favorites, a lot of that cool laid back style the festival is becoming known for and even a movie star or two.

Wedding photographers Huddersfield, West Yorkshire

Rebecca and Simon's wedding at Scapegoat Hill baptist church and Crow Hill, Marsden on Saturday, 10 April 2010

We've had the pleasure of getting to know Becky during the months leading up to her wedding as she has visited our studio for two portrait sessions and she's an absolute joy to photograph.  We had been looking forward very much to her big day and it was our privilege to share the celebrations as she tied the knot with Simon.  As Huddersfield wedding photographers, it was nice to work at two new venues - Scapegoat Hill baptist church and Crow Hill, a lovely country house in Marsden.  

Our first stop was at Becky's parents' house near Holmfirth for getting ready photographs and pictures of her gorgeous gown and accessories before driving the short distance to meet Simon and the guys who were already walking up the road to the church as we arrived.  They looked very smart in top hat and tails!

With few restrictions placed on us by a very accommodating and friendly vicar, Alex was able to capture some wonderful images as Becky and Simon exchanged their vows.  The church has no centre aisle but a balcony provided a great aerial viewpoint for Janet to get some superb pictures.  The church staff very kindly arranged for part of the inner roof which keeps the heat in to be taken off to allow the couple's ceremony to be photographed from above and it was definitely well worth it.  Our sincere thanks to them for making this happen. 

Following the ceremony, a few photographs at the church and confetti at the gate, we set off to Crow Hill ahead of the couple and their guests so that we were ready and waiting for their arrival.  The sun shone all day long which meant that everyone was happy to stay outside enjoying champagne and canapes whilst we completed the group shots.

After the wedding breakfast and speeches, we were able to make the most of the longer daylight hours for a few photographs outside, followed by some romantic and artistic images in the bridal suit with its lovely chaise longue and our beautiful bride!

Our last job was to cover Becky and Simon's first dance in the marquee to Elbow's "One Day Like This."  The colours from the disco lights were just amazing - we love these dance shots.  Congratulations to the new Mr and Mrs Hammond and thank you for choosing us as your wedding photographers.   

Please send us an email with your comments - thank you

Giant Vintage Dominoes.

They had me at "giant."




The highlight of this week's update are these wonderfully fun giant dominoes. Made from smooth hardboard, with each dot carefully painted on in cream, we believe they date back to the early 60s. We love them scattered around as a display but add a clip and you have a unique clipboard too. They measure 8.75x4.25" with a thickness of 2/16". Choose your number!
