Just as we're enjoying the hottest April days since 1949, I'm bringing you some photos from an Eshott Hall wedding...in the snow.

Over the weekend, we visited one of our favourite local places. Wallington Hall in Northumberland. This is a National Trust property and I have been visiting it since I was a child. We decided to go over the weekend, partly to take advantage of the first spring weather, but partly because I'd remembered about their crocus lawn. We missed it last year and I would've forgotten about it until a couple of friends posted photos on social media.

Last month I had the pleasure of photographing Sue and Stuart's wedding at Morpeth Town Hall in Northumberland. We had a practice engagement photo shoot at their home a few months previously, where they could get used to my photography style and feel relaxed about the photos.

I've been fortunate to have photographed some weddings at some gorgeous venues across the North East this year. This blog article subject popped up in my schedule and I almost couldn't choose my favourite!

A new venue for me this year was Backworth Hall in Northumberland and I almost chose this one as there are some lovely places outside to photograph.

It seems like a long time ago that I photographed this summer wedding at Eshott Hall in Northumberland. It was a glorious August day. For a photographer, too sunny, so I was hunting the shade out all afternoon.

I had only met the couple a week beforehand for their engagement photo shoot. They had only booked me a few weeks before the wedding and live in Canada.

With three weddings in one week, things have been really busy. I still haven't had a chance to share more photos from this Eshott Hall wedding so here's another sneak peek! Prompted by the fact I've just taken a booking for another wedding here for next year.

This is the fabulous window on the staircase in the Hall which was a beautiful background for this bridal portrait.
