Lake District Wedding Photographer New Signature Frames

We recently changed our supplier of Signature Frames and are so pleased with the look of the new ones we thought we would share a couple of photographs of Thomas and Natasha’s frame that we are taking to their wedding tomorrow.  They are available with either a black or champagne frame and the print can either be 10 * 7 or 12 * 8.  Total size of the frame is 24 * 20.  During the reception Ruth will go to each of your guests and ask them to write a goodwill message on the mount and after all is done the acrylic cover is put in position and the Signature Frame is ready to hang.  This is a great way to keep a memory to cherish for the pre wedding shoot and the Wedding Day.  As we all know the day itself is soon over and for most Brides and Grooms passes like a blur, so signature frames and albums help to remind us of a very special day in our lives!

So tomorrow is a busy day with the wedding of this young and vibrant couple, so keep an eye out for their Wedding Blog which hopefully will be on this website by the end of next week.

 

 

And now having been at the wedding on Saturday this is what the Signature Frame is starting to look like after the first half hour of the Reception!

 

Cumbria Wedding Photographers with Anna Cherish The Dress Photoshoot

Here are a few images of the Cherish The Dress Wedding photoshoot we took with Anna who told us she wanted a Vintage theme for the shoot.  Whilst this shoot was underway Anna had also asked us to capture some product photography as she hand-makes vintage hair combs and you can find her products at www.thevintagehaircombcompany.co.uk.  The Old Mill was a perfect location for this kind of photography and Anna the perfect Bride!  Many thanks to Gemma who came along to look after the hair and make up arrangements. Gemma has her own business and can be found at www.hairforawedding.co.uk/.  I haven’t really had time to process many of the photographs from Anna’s shoot as we also had two other photoshoots on the same day, one with Amy which was a lifestyle shoot and the other with Katy with her three children, Brody, Joel and Robin.  Hopefully I will catch up with those galleries later this week.  Next up is a Wedding with Thomas and Tash in Morecambe and a follow on photoshoot around Furness Abbey amongst the Cloisters so really looking forward to that.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lancashire Wedding Photography with Gareth and Lorna at Williamson Park Lancaster

This was the first time we had been to Williamson Park in Lancaster for a Pre Wedding Photoshoot although we have been as ‘tourists’ in the past when our own daughters were little.  It is a great facility set in 54 acres of parkland.  The Ashton Folly, which I understand was built by the inventor of linoleum, provides a wonderful backdrop for wedding photography and there is also a butterfly house, bird enclosure and cafe.  We had met Gareth and Lorna some months earlier and as they both live near Lancaster suggested that the Park was a good place to meet up.  They are due to get married in December this year when we will be joining them for their wedding photography and Lorna is hoping for a thin layer of snow.  We will see!  In any case we are sold on the Park as a great location and we could not have asked for a better evening with the light breaking through the tree canopy.

As well as including a pre wedding shoot with all our wedding photography packages, and a Signature Board which Ruth takes round all the guests at the Wedding Reception, we also have found that many couples are now also procuring for themselves a hardbound photobook containing between 40-50 photographs from the pre wedding shoot.  If you are planning on getting married and would like Schtuff Photography as your Wedding photographers be sure to ask us what all the options are.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cumbria Wedding Photographer with Ian & Lindsay at Inn On The Lake Ullswater

We met Ian and Lindsay almost two years ago at the Wedding Fayre at The Inn On The Lake Ullswater, Cumbria when they booked us for their wedding in July this year at the very same location.  So it had been a long time since we had seen them and we wondered how we would get on after all this time. We had arranged to meet up at the Hotel and then go out to various location for their Pre Wedding shoot from there. Well the good news was that we recognised each other although the first thing Lindsay told us was that they were both very camera shy. Yeah! We are sure as you look through a selection of their photographs below you will agree that they took to it like ducks to water.  Lindsay told us that they had booked us at the Fayre because they immediately felt comfortable with us and that was reciprocated by ourselves too.  We had a lovely evening together as we meandered over the hills of the Northern Lake District and now we cannot wait for the wedding.

You might also be interested in looking at our other photo-shoot this week when we were commissioned to photograph HRH Prince Charles visit to Staveley in Cumbria.  Now we have worked as a Royal Photographer it has been suggested that we should add an extra nought to all our prices!  The good news is we have our feet on the ground and the status quo will be retained!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lake District Wedding Photographer with Michael & Katie at Tarn Hows

We met up with Michael and Katie at Tarn Hows on Saturday morning, arriving to find a beautiful sunny day, fluffy clouds and not too many tourists!  Now we have lost count of the number of Pre wedding shoots we have done and how many times we have asked our Couples to get into the water, usually with a lot of verbal encouragement that the water is really not as cold as it feels.  With Michael however no asking was required.  I put my camera bag down to get set up and as I turned around Michael was already in up to his waist, turning over rocks and gleefully showing us such delights as black leeches.  Now we know that the water was freezing cold but as we got cameras into position Katie forged in as well and proved just as game as Michael.  There were some shots I missed because I was laughing too much, my apologies guys.  But it was a real delight to photograph them both as they are so obviously into each other, big style.  The wedding is in September so we look forward to that as well.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cumbria Wedding Photographer with Thomas & Tash Pre Wedding Photoshoot

We had two Pre Wedding Photoshoots on Saturday, one in the morning with Michael and Katie which we will blog a little later and then in the afternoon with Thomas and Tash.  As is so often the case in the Lake District the weather changed completely over the lunch time period and by the the time Thomas and Tash arrived at the agreed location the rain was coming down hard, as can be seen from some of the photographs.  We have blogged their pre wedding photoshoot first as they are due to get married in May whilst Michael and Katie follow in September.  Anyway both couples got into the swing of things very quickly and although both got very wet (for different reasons as will be seen when we blog Michael and Katie’s shoot) were very much relaxed with the whole process.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wedding Photographers Cumbria with Kathryn & Richard at The Langdale Chase Hotel Windermere

Hi to you all.  What a busy week this has been. Two wedding fayres and a wedding.  Kathryn and Richard were married at The Langdale Chase Hotel on Sunday, a beautiful sunny day, a beautiful bride and a fantastic wedding venue.  Kathryn and Richard had both explained when they first contacted us that they were camera shy, so we had suggested a pre wedding shoot which took place a little while back.  There is no doubt this helped with the photoshoot on Sunday where Richard was totally relaxed and Kathryn almost relaxed!  It is such a great place with wonderful backdrops in the Banqueting Hall and gardens that run down to Lake Windermere. We all had a great time and we managed to get Kathryn to crack up a few times.

After just over one year publishing a wedding blog we seem to have hit a cord with Clients looking for a wedding photographer with well over 50 enquiries directed to the Schtuff Photography stand at the Fayres. Amazing.  This week we delivered the GraphiStudio Album to Ed and Sarah and I received the following text  “Just wanted to say a big thank you for our Album.  It is Fab!  So many lovely memories from our day that you’ve captured perfectly.  We’re thrilled with the Album.”  It is so rewarding to get feedback like this and it was a wonderful day we had with them both, even though it rained hard all day!  Anyway busy times ahead as we have a Pre Wedding photoshoot this weekend with Michael and Katy at Tarn Hows, yet another wonderful Lake District location, and then followed up by another Cherish The Dress session.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cumbria Wedding Photography with Rachel Cherish The Dress

Rachel has been married going on for 9 years but was keen to relive the day she slipped into her wedding dress and lo and behold it still was the right size!  So off we went to a local mill and were able to spend Monday morning getting some special shots for her Album.  Ruth came along to attend to the small but important details that, as a bloke, I can sometimes miss and of course make the coffee, which as there wasn’t any heat in the Mill was most welcome.

If your are interested in a portfolio these are the deals we offer:

Cherish The Dress “ A selection of approximately 100 photographs shot out in stunning locations throughout the Lake District £199.00 .  Trash The Dress “ A selection of approximately 100 photographs usually involving rivers/lakes/mud/scrapyards etc! £199.00.  Beloved “ A selection of approximately 100 photographs taken anywhere by mutual consent! £199.00

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wedding Photographer Cumbria with Inn On The Lake Album

We are in the process of compiling a new wedding album for The Inn On The Lake Hotel at Ullswater in Cumbria so thought we would share some of the images taken at Ricci and Penelope’s wedding which we shot last year.  We will be at Inn On The Lake Hotel on the 11th March exhibiting some of our fantastic new Albums and Wedding Stationery, the latter made from some of the images we capture on the pre wedding shoot. Talking pre wedding shoot we also have some really innovative new ideas to show as well.  If you can’t make the wedding fayre then give us a call and we will be happy to meet up at some time to suit both parties.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wedding Photographers Cumbria with Gary & Jill in Vintage Style

Hi everyone.  Sometimes I get the opportunity to completely re-process a wedding in a different style from how it was first presented. As I am asked for more muted and vintage style wedding photographs sometimes I thought I would rework these photographs from Gary and Jill’s wedding.  They say variety is the spice of life so I will try and make this Blog very spicy!  My first Wedding Fare is coming up on Tuesday 28th February at The Stonecross Manor Hotel.  If you are planning a wedding in the next two years try and come along to see me.  I have got some fantastic Albums to show and really cool DVD presentation cases.  There will also be a very Special Offer for any wedding couple signing up with Stephen Peters Photography on the night.

Regards

Steve
