A Busy Summer...
A busy summer and a new found focus on fitness has meant that I've neglected my blog.

But I'm back now and after shooting my penultimate wedding yesterday for 2009, I thought I'd make an effort to update my blog. So here goes...

Since my last post on 18th May, I have been honoured to be photographer at no less than 6 weddings, and at some amazing venues. Congratulations to all of the following;
  • Christine & Paul, who were married at St. Annes Church, Keighley and had a wonderful reception at Oakwood Hall, Bingley.

  • Justine & Tony, who had fantastic weather at a fantastic venue, Wentbridge House Hotel, Pontefract.

  • Claire and David who were married at one of the most beautiful churches I've ever been to, St. Thomas Church, Greenhammerton then on to the Cairn Hotel, Harrogate. David turned up in a Lotus (lucky boy).

  • Lisa & Niki, who despite the weather had a fantastic wedding day at The Craigland Hotel, Ilkley.

  • Caroline & Paul, who were married at St. Peters Church, Rawdon then onto Bradford Gold Club for thier wedding reception, drinks and sunbathing.

  • Claire & Mike who only yesterday were married at my most favourite venue of them all, Goldsborough Hall nr Harrogate.

So what's next, well I have my final wedding of the year on 22nd December in the Lake District, and then we are well and truely into 2010.

Buy for now, Rich

Congratulations to Jen & Chris


Friday 17th October saw the marriage of Jen & Chris in a Civil Ceremony at Weetwood Hall Hotel in Leeds.

It was a great day, and although the wind was blowing and there was a chill in the air, everyone was more than happy to venture outside for some photographs.

The Autuminal theme was perfect, and I late found out that the grounds man had been keeping bags of leavs so that he could scatter them on the lawns ready for Jen and Chris's big day.

Congratulations Jen & Chris.

Here is a snap of Jen and Chris's little girl playing with the freshly fallen leaves ;-)

... and one of the happy couple enjoying their First Dance as Mr & Mrs Stothard...

Congratulations to Sonia & Andrew
Saturday 11th October saw the marriage of Sonia & Andrew at The Grange Hotel, in York.

Sonia & Andrew were a laugh-a-minute and it was a fantastic atmosphere. The sun was shining and due to the lack of grounds at The Grange, Sonia & Andrew had managed to agree the use of St. Peters School grounds just 1 minute walk away.

The Grange Hotel in York is a fantastic hotel, the staff are extra friendly and the Library where the ceremony takes place is amazing.

Congratulations Sonia & Andrew.
