The beginning of the shoot starts of all cute in a meadow and then turns quite sinister.. You’re going to have to carry on through the photos if you want to see the end result.

My name’s Becky, which you probably already knew, and I currently live in a small town in Derbyshire called Belper (near Derby and Nottingham).  I am originally from Liverpool, and still have a base in the North West, so I am more than happy to cover weddings in that area.  I’m personally not a fan of having my photograph taken, yet at the same time always think it’s nice to have good photographs of yourself and with family/friends etc, so I can definitely relate to others in the same boat who may be a little camera shy!

Love Letters – Home Is Where The Heart Is

2014-01-03_0071

Today I get to share the cute engagement shoot of Nicola and Andy from the fabulous Becky Ryan Photography which took place in their vintage knick knack filled  home.

The power of Twitter had led us to the lovely Becky Ryan, who has just branched out into the world of photography and was looking to build up her portfolio. We are also on a budget so I thought we could help each other out! After a few emails, FaceBook messages and tweets we finally settled on a day which was mutually convenient.

When Becky arrived we all had a brew and exchanged pleasantries. I could tell straight away that she would be great to work with.

As our house was going to feature heavily in the shots, we gave her the grand tour. As I went off to get changed, Becky went around the house again by herself, getting a feel for the light etc. She took a few snaps of our knick-knackery just to get started then it was time for “lights, camera, action!”
