Eaves Hall outdoor wedding : Rebecca and Damon

Rebecca and Damon’s Eaves Hall outdoor wedding back in Summer 2017 was a special day. I knew it would be from the moment they started chatting about their plans with me. Keen to have the day unobtrusively captured whilst they had fun, thats exactly what happened. Rebecca and Damon had the time of their lives, and I documented every moment.

This was my first visit to this local venue, and it was a special setting for the ceremony, outside of Eaves hall, overlooking the Ribble Valley of Lancashire. When Rebecca told me she and her bridesmaids were going to walk through the gardens to a waiting Damon, I knew I needed to get a shot from the high vantage point of the Eaves hall balcony. This is the reason my fitbit activity is always high on a wedding day, I’m always moving (sometimes running) between moments of action. Before the ceremony I certainly put a good number of floors on my fitbit counter, as I was up and down the stairs getting different viewpoints on the story! I nearly always shoot on my own, and make sure I don’t just get the “safe shot”, but instead capture moments from multiple vantage points.

A rare shot also features on this blog post, a group shot. Well sort of. I am sometimes asked to take a couple of formal group shots, and of course don’t mind doing this at all. But it’s the moments between group shots that I love to capture, genuine moments.

A huge thanks to Rebecca and Damon for having me along to capture their day, some of my favourite storytelling images below…
