The day started with me driving over the pennines on the M62 from Yorkshire to Manchester to Emma and Adam's home, where Emma, her friends and family were getting ready for the big day ahead. I love getting shots of the bride and groom before the day starts, its such a lovely atmosphere, everyone is excited, nervous and it just creates a lovely time to photograph. Today was no different Emma was at home relaxed with her friends and family putting the final touches whilst the kids played and the girls had a wee drink. Nat, Rachel, Ellie and Lilly made sure that Emma was looked after, whilst happily smiling for me to snap away.
The setting for their ceremony was The Barn at Morsley Hall - a beautiful place, set in the countryside. The barn oozes rustic country wedding, with a great terrace and amazing indoor space. I couldn't help but nip around and take some shots of the beautiful decor. I then met Adam and his groomsmen before the guests started to arrive and before we knew it, it was time for the ceremony.
