Verity and Beth’s stunning August wedding at Newburgh Priory Estate, because this day was absolutely gorgeous from start to finish.

After years of being the best friends, they decided to make it official – because your partner should be your best friend, right?! 💍

A Gorgeous Warm Yorkshire Day

August gave us the most beautiful warm Yorkshire day for Verity and Beth’s celebration. The kind of day where everything just feels perfect – blue skies, golden light, and that lovely warmth that makes everyone relaxed and happy.

Newburgh Priory Estate looked absolutely stunning. The grounds are so beautiful I honestly thought I’d taken a wrong turn into Brighton for a moment. It’s one of those venues that just takes your breath away.

If you’re considering a Newburgh Priory wedding, let me tell you – this place is special.

Two Beautiful Brides in Two Beautiful White Dresses

Verity and Beth both wore gorgeous white dresses, and they looked absolutely stunning.

We wandered the gardens at Newburgh Priory, taking our time to capture some brilliant couple shots. The grounds give you so much variety – manicured gardens, natural landscapes, architectural features – it’s a photographer’s dream.

This is what I love about my job. Getting to spend time with couples in these beautiful settings, capturing genuine moments as they happen, no stiff posing or awkwardness.

The DIY Village Hall Reception

After the ceremony, we headed to the village hall where Verity and Beth had created the most incredible DIY wedding reception.

And when I say they pulled out all the stops, I mean it. Thoughtful décor everywhere, the dreamiest personal touches, and so much love and effort put into every detail.

This is what makes weddings special – not how much you spend, but how much of yourselves you put into it. Verity and Beth absolutely nailed this.

The Yorkshire Box Bar Photo Moment

I HAD to use The Yorkshire Box Bar for some photos. It was there, it looked amazing, and I knew it would make for some brilliant shots.

Got the brides inside the horse box for a few shots and it looked so cool! These are the kind of spontaneous moments that often end up being favourites – when we spot something interesting and just go for it.

The Yorkshire Box Bar added such a fun, unique element to their day, and the photos turned out exactly as I’d hoped.

Wedding Crocs, Strawberry Cake, and the Cutest Rabbit

This day had everything. Brilliant speeches that had everyone laughing and crying. Wedding crocs (because comfort matters, especially when you’re celebrating all day). A strawberry cake that looked as good as it tasted.

And the cutest rabbit you will EVER see. Seriously, scroll through the photos – this little one absolutely stole the show.

These are the details that make your wedding uniquely yours. The unexpected touches, the personal elements, the things that make your guests smile and say “that’s so them.”

Making People Feel Comfortable

Verity and Beth left me the loveliest feedback, and there was one bit that really stuck with me. They mentioned feeling comfortable and seen in my company.

As a photographer, nothing makes me happier than this. The photos matter, obviously – but how you feel during the process matters just as much.
