Charlotte and Gavin - Pre Wedding Shoot

My good friend Charlotte is getting married to Gavin in early July at Allerton Castle, North Yorkshire. I am really honoured to be asked to be their photographer, its extra special to create wedding images for friends and I'm really excited about it.
We finally met to do the pre wedding shoot at Bolton Abbey after being forced to cancel twice due to the ridiculous rain over the last few weeks.
The light was perfect and the Bolton Abbey Estate was nice and quiet in the late afternoon. It is still one of my favourite pre wedding locations because the light and landscape changes so dramatically through the year and in different weather conditions.
After we had a natter and a catch up (which took care of about an hour or so) we got round to some photography!!

Gavin had been practising his smile for weeks in front of the mirror so I was looking forward to seeing the results;)
Charlotte is very natural in front of the camera and photographs really well so it was an easy job. As a couple, they are constantly smiling and laughing and a pre wedding shoot is a brilliant way to see how a couple interact together and what approach to take with the photography.

                 

I had a great afternoon and Charlotte and Gav are a fab couple and easy and fun to photograph!


Thanks you two. Emily X
