Karen and Andy may have left their wedding plans later than most - they managed to do the whole thing in just 6 months!
I met with them and we semed to get on well during the consultation - even though I managed to turn up the night before my appontment!
Luckily, my personality and photography won them over and they booked me to be their official photographer at Crathorne Hall near Yarm in North Yorkshire - one of my favourite wedding venues in the north of England, and a place where I have photographed four wedding this year.
The staff at Crathorne Hall are most attentive and on top of their game, and the country house hotel has a wonderful atmosphere, all cosy and warm and welcoming - with wonderful grounds.
Karen and Andy wanted their wedding like many of my brides and grooms, relaxed, fun and a wonderful day of celebration, no messing around with photography for hours on end and lots and lots of images of their close family and guests enjoying themselves - letting me capture the ambiance and atmosphere and fun of the day.

I met with Andy and his close friends at the Crathorne Arms and he confessed to a few nerves - in fact he didn't finish his pint! Karen on the other hand was so chilled out that she wasn't even getting into her wedding dress until 15 minutes before and was fashionably 10 minutes late for her civil cermony!
The brief service over, it was time to chill out and relax for an hour or more before the wedding breakfast and I managed to gather family and friends together for 10 minutes for a few family keepsake photos - all captured as quickly and as naturally as possible ... Karen and Andy were having a great time and I even managed to get a few minutes with themto get some nice portraits - as they didn't want to be out of their comfort zone too long!
There were some great speeches - even from Karen and almost as it was over and we had finished our meal, guests for the evening were turning up and it was all go again ......
