I love capturing small details on a wedding day. This photo doesn’t have any faces, it’s just a sharing platter but I like the multiple hands and thought it was a great way to show the food but with some context.

First wedding of the year blogged! From a personal ceremony conducted by a friend of the couple to amazing food and dance floor it was the perfect way to start 2024.

Check it out on my website now to see more from this epic Wylam Brewery wedding.

I’m really happy to have picked up 3 new awards from today. Especially for this photo as it’s one of my favourites from last year. It’s one of the main things I focus on, those real moments and relationships, this moment is a typical kids being kids photo rather than a standard wedding photo which I love.

Thanks to all the judges and the team at NineDots.

Most importantly thanks to my couples who give me the trust and freedom to capture moments like this and not all the staged ‘non real’ stuff.

This Sunday I am returning to one of my favourite ever venues for the WEDSANDS festival wedding show. Come say hi from 11am-3pm on Sunday 28th April 2024.

The amazing team from Barn on the Bay are taking trips to the coastal ceremony site in their tractor and the barn will be looking incredible.

I can’t wait to meet everyone and spend a day chatting about weddings. Here are a few recent photos from weddings I have photographed at Barn on the Bay.

It’s the weekend! I hope you all have fun plans. Here are a few photos from a recent dance floor. Always a fun time and I love when everyone can be themselves and let loose. Wylam Brewery has an epic dance floor space and being an events space the lighting and sound is incredible.

Story award part 2/2… thanks again to for awarding this sequence from a wedding I photographed last year at this wonderful Yorkshire tipi venue.

A story award has always been a goal of mine as it’s based on 15-20 images from the same wedding and is all about storytelling (something I sell myself on).

Thanks for all the kind words and messages on my previous post 😊.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Story award part 1/2… I’m very excited *see my story for the excitement levels 😂. I have only gone and won a STORY AWARD from a goal I have carried across for a few years can finally be ticket off!!

Over 13,000 images were submitted 😱 with only 31 story awards winning. I have always pushed for story awards as I think telling a story across a single wedding is so important for my style, I talk about it all the time and as much as I love those single ‘stand out’ images, I think it’s important that I can consistently tell stories that are personal to the wedding day.

I might have a left over Easter egg to celebrate! *Just joking I don’t have any left 😂

Thanks to TIR and all the judges, you have made my week!

Here are the first images from the story award from the fantastic wedding of Caitlin & James last year

This week has felt like a busy one, I am delivered my first wedding of the year today and I did this sneak peek from last weekend. I have a few weeks off now before things get crazy from May. It’s the Easter holidays now so it will be mostly egg hunts and Easter crafts! I hope you all have a great weekend.

With spring knocking on the door, the sun was shining as Katy & Jon threw a wonderful barn wedding in the Yorkshire countryside.

A classic Land Rover and London bus for transport, rustic barn styling, pie and mash & cheese toasties for food, the perfect Yorkshire wedding.

I had the most fun all day with such a lovely group of people. A massive thanks to & Jon for having me along and trusting me to capture their day. Sneak peek coming soon…

WOW being a Mum in 2024 is a pretty tough gig. When I take the kids out on my own, a dad with two small children I get comments; ‘you have your hands full there’ ‘how amazing, managing them on your own’ etc etc. When it’s a women, a mother, it’s just expected, if the kids are playing up, you get looked at as if you are the worse mother in the world. The double standards from the world, sometimes your own family is crazy.

Then there is the balance of work and being a mum, the guilt of putting them in nursery, the feeling of societies pressure to be the best mum whilst also having to work! I see the pressure it puts on everyone.

I’m lucky that I watched my Mum working loads to provide for me and my brothers on her own for years whilst also always being there for us and I hope that appreciation has stuck with me.

does an amazing job, juggling being such a caring parent whilst working extremely hard. All her efforts allow me to spend so much time with my kids and have my dream job, which let’s be honest doesn’t feel like work most of the time 😂.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mums, mums to be, mother figures out there just doing their best!

Happy Mother’s Day everyone, a throw back to one of my favourite mother’s expressions of all time 😂. I could tell Ann was going to be full of emotion and expression so I just had to make sure I was in the right place at the right time and let it happen. The framing in the door is the extra little thing!

Also if you let a 3 year old write a card allow a lot of time, it takes a while!! She was very proud (as was I) that she wrote her own name though.

*** Sneak Peek ***

Just like that weddings are back! My 2024 wedding season started with an amazing day at Wylam Brewery with the super nice Hannah & Jonny. Friends of a past couple of mine I was very excited for this day ever since they booked and it certainly didn’t dissapoint.

An appearance from the very excited and cute Fin the dog, a lovely ceremony officiated by a friend of the couple and an incredible dance floor from start to finish.

Here are a few images from the day, enjoy!

It’s so so good to have weddings back 🎉 a huge congratulations to Hannah & Jonny who kept to my unofficial quote that doctors go crazy at their weddings.

Great to be at the wonderful Wylam Brewery a fantastic venue with a personal connection for the couple. They also had one of my previous grooms officiate the ceremony.

I will have a proper sneak peek next week but I send a few over the couple and they said:

‘OMG Scott these are incredible!!! Thank you so so much - can’t wait to see the rest!! Honestly booking you was the easiest decision in the whole wedding”

Thanks & Jonny.

Enjoy your Sunday everyone.

Thanks for the kind words Kim & Josh, you absolute legends. Made even better by the fact you sign your emails off with ‘stay pop punk’ I might even steal it 😂.

Tomorrow my 2024 wedding season starts, kicking off with a 2 day wedding, with the intimate legal ceremony tomorrow followed by a big wedding on Saturday and I can’t wait.

It’s that time of the year when I start throwing it back, going through older galleries and picking out a few images that I love to mix in amongst my newer best of 2023 posts.

I’m doing a takeover of the Instagram account this week. It’s a photography conference I’m speaking at in March. It’s meant that I have been going through all my old photography archives, from the very first things I photographed to the first weddings and it’s actually been really nice.

I love a tipi wedding, offers a private woodland setting for your tipi wedding and I have been lucky to photograph many weddings here over the past couple of years. Close to the lovely village of Sedgefield you are greeting with a wonderful treelined walk before it open up to reveal the tipis and green open space (perfect for games).

I had such a laugh this year capturing some very fun weddings and I’m already excited for this wedding season. Check out Bradbury Glade if you are looking for a tipi venue.

Hey, how are we all doing? Anyone managed to carry on dry January and still being healthy or have we turned to shots for breakfast as the world falls apart??

Lots of admin for me this week, prepping for a busy March with 2 weddings, a pre wedding shoot and I’m speaking at a photography conference which is both incredibly scary but also unbelievable that anybody wants to hear from me!

I’m also enjoying time with the kids, the sun was out yesterday, so despite the cold weather we went to the park with friends and I’m definitely trying to make the most of this time before full time school / pre school in September.

Enjoy your week 😊

This photo is from the wonderful Scottish wedding of Katie & Adam during bride prep.

Carrying on sharing some of my best of 2023 photos with a few from the morning / getting ready part of the wedding day. I love getting to meet more of the wedding party and getting a feel for how the day is going to be.

3 weeks until my first wedding of the year and I can’t wait! Loads of admin in February which makes me feel organised but I do miss weddings. I’m heading out on Tuesday for a bit of street photography as I get ready for wedding season.

Is there anything better than a hug…? We hug to show we care or love someone, we hug to comfort, we hug to celebrate. For me it’s the nicest greeting and I love capturing them at weddings.

I especially love when there is a little extra, when you can feel the squeeze or see the excitement. From the first hug of the day until the final hug.

Always squeeze in one more hug

Here are 10 hugs from my best of 2023 post.

Especially since becoming a parent, witnessing the everyday excitement that children show, seeing the magic that those small looks, cuddles and cheeky moments bring to parents,grandparents, aunties & uncles means I understand how important it is to capture whilst it lasts. Imagine as a child how exciting a wedding is. Surrounded by family, dressing up in something fancy and being allowed to eat basically anything. They also make for some very fun and cute photos.

Here are a few frames from kids at weddings from my best of 2023 post.

I’m very excited to have picked up an award for this image from the first round of a great start to the year!

celebrates documentary wedding photography and over 13,500 photos were submitted with only 50!! Individual photos awarded, so it was incredibly difficult to win 🏆.

If you have read my end of year blog post you will know I won one award from This is Reportage last year and I was very happy with that. So to win one already in the first round is a great feeling. Thanks to the judges.

These moments are why you often see me wandering around away from the ‘main scenes / room’ there are lots of stories happening everywhere.

A summer DIY festival wedding complete with neon after party, glorious sunshine and Tipis. When the party barn is still absolutely bouncing at 1am you know it’s been a lively day!

I loved my trip to the Norfolk countryside last summer and I will forever love Gemma & Cejay for booking me. Starting with a relaxed morning for Gemma & her bridesmaid as they got themselves ready in one of the cottages before an outdoor ceremony decorated with colourful festoon lanterns. A friend (who happens to be an amazing DJ) followed a band and the dance floor was full the whole night.

A little sunburnt, I was still absolutely buzzing at 2am when I got into my hotel. One of my favourite ever weddings.

Whoop whoop, my final wedding of 2023 has been delivered, high five to myself 🖐️. Ending on a high with & for a fun filled day and an epic dance floor.

Molly & Tom were guests at my last wedding of 2022 and it was great to see Kathryn & Mark again at my last wedding of 2023.

Now to work on my best of 2023 post and a few final wedding albums and prints before maybe a day off 😂.

Thanks again to Molly & Tom for trusting me to capture their relaxed wedding in my style, I’m glad you love the images.

Living in the North East of England, only a couple of hours from the Scottish border, I often find myself shooting weddings in Scotland. Laura & Issy planned a wonderful DIY village hall wedding in the lovely small (very small) village of Tyninghame. Complete with a double decker bus, bagpipes and even homemade biscuits for canapés (a definite highlight for me).

Homegrown flowers decorated the village hall and after the ceremony we all jumped on the bus for a short drive to the reception. Loads of personal touches from Lego characters to nods to the couples travels made Whitekirk Hill the personal backdrop Laura & Issy wanted.

I absolutely loved the whole vibe and feeling of the day, so much love, emotion and laughter from every guest.

Thanks for having me along Laura & Issy and for trusting me to capture your day as unposed and relaxed as possible.
