Something a little different today - our annual support of the wonderful Ravens Rescue UK dog show π₯°
As always, a wonderful show inclusive of all pooches great and small - it was so great to see how much everyone adores their dogs and how much effort some people went to - especially in the fancy dress! π
View all the photos here: https://zenfolio.page.link/WuUEX
If you didn't get a chance to purchase from us yesterday at the show, you can do so online. We'll be donating a percentage of our sales to Ravens Rescue, so please do help to support this wonderful charity.

Round 2 for the Cassar family - this time with the addition of the gorgeous Maddie in tow π₯°
I love seeing families grow and capturing memories as life evolves. I first met Heather and Luke when I photographed their wedding back in 2018 and we've since had two gorgeous outdoor family photography sessions.
Hugo is just the most fun and sweetest little boy and his little sister will no doubt grow up to be the same. I can't wait to see them on their next adventure!

A quote - actually a song lyric - that I absolutely love!
So much so that I'm considering it for my next tattoo π
My career dream was to build a photography business, running my own little company making people happy and capturing memories.
My life dream since I was a little girl was to go work on a horse ranch in the USA.
Well, I've happily ticked both of those off and I still sometimes kick myself that I can spend my life doing what I love as a job!
So, if any of you out there have dreams....go get em!! πͺ β¨

It was so lovely to catch up with Layla and Matt this summer, whose wedding I photographed last December.
We had a great time capturing some memories at Cotswold Lavender and they selected these gorgeous images as a Lux Glass Wall Art Collection.
And of course you can't have Layla and Matt without the amazing Wallace!
What an absolute dude of a dog! And super photogenic too π

β¨ MANOR HILL HOUSE WEDDING β¨
We were treated to a gorgeous evening and sunset on Saturday at Manor Hill House to bring Emily and Steve's wedding day celebrations to a close.
I simply had to share this beautiful shot of them having a moment with their daughter as the sun set behind them. Perfect memories of the perfect day π₯°

What a beautiful day this was!
A gorgeous church ceremony at All Saint Catholic Church in Stourbridge, followed by some gorgeous sunshine greeting us at Redhouse Barn for a reception filled with laughter, a huge amount of homemade confetti, even an apparence by the lovely Susan the greyhound π₯°
Here's a few of our favourites...

β¨ JOANN & TOM β¨
What a gorgeous wedding this one was!
Sadly Jo didn't have her Dad there to walk her down the aisle, but her Uncle Mark proudly stepped in to do the honours. I had a chat with him after the ceremnony and it was obvious how much it meant to him that he could be there for her, and at her Dad's wishes too π
Genuinely some of the loveliest people I've worked with on a wedding day, and the wonderful venue, suppliers and weather just brought it all together perfectly...
Such lovely words from Joann and Tom after their wedding day at The Holt Fleet on Friday.
We know it's daunting being in front of the camera so we always aim to make things as easy and as comfortable as possible.
I'm also kinda impressed that Jo (by her own admission) didn't cry once on the day but our photos got her there π

Let's take a moment to appreciate how beautiful the wedding day of Mariella and Alex was at the stunning Arley House and Gardens...
They opted for a ceremony in the beautiful Italian Gardens and the weather was just picture perfect (excuse the pun). We definitely made the most of their exclusive use of the space, with some gorgeous family and couple photos with the fountain creating the perfect backdrop.
I almost passed this wedding on due to being fully booked for this summer, but we really clicked when we met at the venue's open day and something told me I needed to be there. I'm so glad I was - such a genuinely lovely couple to work with, with the most wonderful friends and families π₯°

The sweetest wedding day story squeezed into just 10 images!
Elisha and Kyle were one of the first 2024 couples to book us for their wedding day and they certainly made the most of having lots of time to plan!
This couple have been through so much together and, unlike many, it's only proved to bring them closer together and make them stronger. It was beautful to see how much they adore each other, make each other laugh and how they've supported one another throughout their relationship.
Kyle loves his car (despite his mates always ribbing him for how it's "forever broken" so it had to feature in the photos! Elisha opted to arrive in something that wouldn;t be likely to break down courtesy of Ash from ShowTime π
It was defintiely hard to see who was prouder all day - Kyle or Elisha's dad - and their speeches (her Dads amazing memorised speech and Kyle's beautiful song that he wrote) summed up how much they adore Elisha.

Dancing in the Rain β¨ππ¦
After resigning ourselves to not getting a sunset and heading off to take some "dramatic cloudy sky" photos, we were blessed with THE most incredible light on the evening of Ellie and Ashley's wedding at Wootton Park the other day!
We'd just finished the planned photos when the whole venue was lit up by a stream of hazy sunlight fighting through the clouds. We all got very excited and ran to capture what we could and, as we did, it started raining and created this glorious atmospheric golden hour scene.
Life's all about living in the moment and making the most of the unexpected!

A little sneak peek at our very first wedding at the gorgeous The Dodford Inn in Bromsgrove π₯°
The bridal suite was an absolutely beautiful setting for the ladies getting ready in the morning - kudos to Ben for his amazing DIY skills! - and then we all made our way to the stunning Sacred Heart Church in Droitwich for their ceremony.
You may remember my reel highlighting the breathtaking architecture in this church - check it out if you missed it as it needed it's very own post π
Back to the Dodford Inn for their reception and everything was just so so lovely. Shout out to the venue team for being generally awesome and looking after me all day. This is such a gorgeous family run venue and it's obvious how much love and hard work has gone into it.
Congrats to Mr and Mrs Davy!

Planning your wedding? Don't let Covid-19 stop you! Here's a little message from me to let you know how I'm dealing with wedding bookings right now. Stay safe everyone β€
Iβm the head photographer at Still Light Photography, specialising in creative and natural wedding and portrait photography. I am based in Kidderminster, Worcestershire however I take commissions all over the UK and overseas on request.
I do what I do simply because I love it! Capturing the moments, being part of each individual story, meeting new people...itβs fantastic! I fell in love with photography because I love the idea that you can freeze a moment in time that you can never physically return to, but you have the visual memory forever. For me this makes photography priceless and I feel honoured to be able to work in this industry.
Whatever youβre looking for, be it family portraiture, beautiful wedding photographs, a shoot in the park with your dog - give me a call or drop me a message and we can set up a free consultation. Iβd love to chat with you about your plans and create some amazing memories for you.
