Couple Getting Hitched | Claire & Jon
Tynemouth is a beautiful place so why not two pre wedding shoots in the same day at the same location.
This time it was with Claire & Jon, and what a couple of lovebirds these two are, needing no direction from me. Great chemistry, I’m sure there must have been some practicing before hand. After todays shoot I’m sure looking forward to their big day the Ramside Hall Hotel, so be sure to check back soon

Mata Ki Chowki Location | Newcastle Hindu Temple
Couple Getting Hitched | Anjali & Rajan
It was great to catch back up with Anjali & Rajan, to capture the next part of their Asian Wedding. Mata Ki Chowki is the start of the wedding celebrations where the couple, family and friends pray to Mataji to bless the wedding.
Anjali & Rajan’s Mata Ki Chowki took place at the Hindu Temple in Newcastle and what a fascinating place it was. The whole experience was such a privilege to be a part of. The clothes, colours, and statues were just fantastic.
It was great to see everybody come together and share in the celebrations.
I’m looking forward to capturing many more special moments through Anjali & Rajan’s wedding celebrations.
Linden Hall Wedding | Natalie & Carl

Couple Getting Hitched | Natalie & Carl
Well, it’s fair to say it’s getting to that time of year. Christmas is a magical time and I love it when the big venues get awesome big Christmas trees. Linden Hall did not disappoint here, sporting a very pretty Red and Gold theme. It would have been wrong not to include it in a few photos.
It was my second visit to Linden Hall for the marriage of Natalie & Carl. Linden Hall is such a stunning venue both inside and out. Luckily this time very spacious inside as the heavens opened and stayed open just about all day. This didn’t in any way dampen the day.
Linden Hall lighting a gorgeous fire, making the main hall warm and homely and Natalie & Carl also adding some great touches to the day also.
It was a beautiful day with a beautiful bride full of fun, happiness and lots of emotion. From almost forgetting a bridesmaid dress at the hairdressers, to guests running around taking pout and peace selfies.
This brought back lovely memories of my own big day, as we travelled to our venue and left a bridesmaid dress hanging in the wardrobe at home.
Enjoy taking a look at Natalie & Carl’s big day…
South Shields Pre Wedding | Jill & John

Pre Wedding Location || South Shields
Couple || Jill & John
It’s always lovely to head down to the beach, even more so when it’s for a pre wedding shoot with a wonderful family. Jill, John, Andrew, Ben and Sophie were fun to spend the morning with, topping it off with some ice cream from Minchella’s. It was hard not to after the kids were so well behaved, especially in front of the camera.
Looking forward to photographing Jill & Johns wedding at Rockliffe Hall after this great pre wedding shoot.
Little Cute Amelia
Newcastle Photographer | Leighton Bainbridge
Amelia First Photo Shoot
I have to say, Amelia is one seriously seriously cute baby. She is just gorgeous and I could bite chunks out of her. To go with her ridiculous cuteness she was so well behaved, an easy hour photo shoot and not one murmur. Just slept the whole time, only just two weeks old when I photographed her. (perfect model.) I’m sure Sian & James are extremely proud of there little girl. It feels like so long ago that Nancy was that small.

Couple Getting Hitched | Vicky & Martin
What a crazy wedding day, weather wise. It was forecast for showers but this was torrential, but with in the space of 5 minutes it was sunny again. It was like this all day for Vicky & Martin’s Wedding at the Ramside Hall. With only small windows of opportunity for photos outside it was a mad rush to grab what we could before it started again! At one point we were all headed back in as the thunder roared.
Vicky & Martin were a great couple to spend the day with capturing all their special moments. As well as all the details of dressing the room up, which looked fantastic. Certainly a lot of blood and sweat went into it.
There were loads of great moments of Vicky & Martin’s wedding day but one of the key moments that stood out for me was the best men’s speeches, at the expense of the groom who really took a grilling.
The day was capped off with a stunning night shot showing off the Bride & Groom as well as the Ramside Hall’s stunning scenery.
Washington Old Hall Wedding | Rebecca & Keith
Newcastle Wedding Photographer | Leighton Bainbridge
Wedding Venue | Washington Old Hall
Wedding Location | Washington | Newcastle | Tyne and Wear
Couple Getting Hitched | Rebecca & Keith
For my first trip photographing a wedding at Washington Old Hall, I was desperate for some great weather. Washington Old Hall has some stunning gardens, which is ideal for wedding photographs in Newcastle. My sister in law got married here a few years ago but it rained heavy all day so were unable to capitalize on these gorgeous grounds. The forecast was for bad weather on Rebecca & Keith’s wedding day, we were hugely lucky that the rain held off literally till they got into their wedding car.
Bless them! As I literally had them running around Washington Old Hall’s gardens grabbing some amazing shots as it was thundering above our heads (No exaggeration) The weather gods certainly stayed onside!
Rebecca & Keith were a fantastic couple to photograph, like everyone a little shy at first but once I relaxed them on there Pre Wedding Shoot in Jesmond Dene they were perfect. As a bonus realizing that they live in the next street from me, so no excuses for being late haha.
James their son also looked super smart in his custom made suit to look like his dads.
Hope you have just as much fun looking at Rebecca & Keith’s special day as much as I did photographing their wedding.
