Beautiful wedding, newborn, baby & family photography across Leeds, York, Harrogate, Ilkley & beyondβ¦
Welcome lovely people to my website! Iβm Laura, a Yorkshire wedding photographer, newborn photographer, baby photographer and family photographer. I live near Ilkley but cover Leeds, York, Harrogate, Sheffield and, well, just about anywhere! I have an adorably crazy 6 year old called Rose who is too clever for her own good, a mild floral addiction, and Iβm mostly powered by tea, Gin and dairy free ice cream. When Iβm not working I can be found wandering the beautiful Yorkshire countryside with my camera (I can never put it down for long!), catching up with friends, or enjoying a mammoth Netflix binge.
Natural & relaxed Yorkshire wedding photographer covering Leeds, York, Harrogate, Ilkley and more!
I spent a looooong time looking at my computer screen, staring off into space, and even going βold skoolβ with pen and paper, trying to find the best (and most concise) way to describe my style of photography. In a nutshell, Iβm all about the love, man. Iβm so lucky that my job allows me to step into the lives of so many people and families, if only for a short time. I love hearing their stories and helping them to tell a new one. Oh, and flowers. Gah but I love the flowers.
βThatβs all very nice Laura, but what can we actually expect from you as our photographer?β
For weddings, itβs all about the story. I want to share the whole day with you; from the nervous excitement of the bridal preparations, through the wobbling voices and βI must not cry on cameraβ faces of the ceremony and speeches, to the crazy dance floor action (and let me tell you, I have seen some MOVES). I also love to capture all the little details and special touches that make your wedding, yours. The flowers, the dress, the cake, the stationary, the shoes, the flowers (like I said, itβs an addiction). And of course I want to spend some time with just the two of you, creating some beautiful portraits. Now I know that will make some of you nervous, but donβt worry, you will love this bit! I have photographed weddings all over Yorkshire and a few further afield, and Iβm very honoured to even be recommended by some of my favourites, including The Tithe Barn at Bolton Abbey, Denton Hall, Carlton Towers, Goldsborough Hall, The Hawkhills York and The Sun Pavilion Harrogate.
For portrait shoots, whether itβs snuggling up at home with your newborn, chasing your toddler through the park, or skimming stones and climbing trees with your eldest, I want you to have as much fun as possible and barely ever notice Iβm there. Again, itβs a story; of who you all were together at that moment, of what you loved doing together and the places you went. Donβt expect to sit still for long! And I rarely say βcheeseβ.*
*Disclaimer β I actually do sometimes say βcheeseβ. Partly because I find the βcheeseβ face hilarious, and also so I can make fun of it and capture the real laugh that follows!
So there you have it. Not as concise as Iβd planned but hopefully that will give you an idea of what my photography is all about.
