Fairclough Studios - Wedding Photography & Films Dramatic and creative wedding photography and films by Katie and James, a hubby and wife team. Don’t ask…actually, do! I do. He looks scared. I’m talking rubbish.
(50)

We are Katie and James Fairclough, slightly bonkers but ever so loveable people and have two kitties, B***y and Baby Wee. We are a husband and wife team based in Lytham St. Annes, Lancashire who found each other at the local photographic society. The story goes like this – I (Katie) was running pathetically late, pedalling my bike like a crazy woman in the pouring rain to get to the weekly meeting

. I burst in to the room, hair soaking wet, mascara running down my face, looking 100% crazy woman and I 1) notice I am not late at all, people are still queuing up to be signed in and 2) there is a rather handsome young man looking nervously around, I should introduce myself, I think. Oh no! Somehow, after an awkward few seconds that seem like forever, the conversation starts to flow and the rest, as they say, is history. Ah, precious memories! Our approach is relaxed, and we work together to create a visual story of your big day. On the morning of the wedding, Katie captures all of the goings on with the Bride and the bridal party, whilst James hangs out with the Groom and co. photographing the happenings as the nerves become quite fraught! We then come together to capture the rest of the day as it unfolds.

Georgie and Simon got married at Browsholme Hall & The Tithe Barn last week and boy oh boy, was it a beautiful day. We hitched a ride on one of the golf buggies to this very stunning spot and made the most of the sunshine for their portraits. We nearly got stuck in the mud a few times but i'd say it was worth it! Thanks so much for having us share your day guys, lots of love ###

Kathy and Seva’s was the first Fijian wedding we’ve shot and all I can say is what a pure joy it was! These guys and their friends and family were all so lovely and welcoming and some of the most genuine people we’ve had the pleasure of meeting. Kathy felt quite nervous with the camera on her at first but after a short time was an absolute natural. Thank you so much for having us share your day guys. Congratulations again ###

We met Emily and Jai at an open evening we were at as recommended suppliers at Palm House Sefton Park. I remember how bloody lovely they were and so easy to talk to, telling us all about their plans for their fusion wedding day - we wanted to capture their day for them so badly!!! I thought they were too cool for us haha so when they told us they’d like to go ahead, ecstatic definitely was the word! They got married on Saturday and wow-wee, what a feast for the senses it was. Thank you guys, so very much for having us along. It was the best journey ###

It was fab to be back at Browsholme Hall & The Tithe Barn for Imogen & Josh’s wedding - we’ve had some awesome times over the years at this stunning tithe barn venue, and it never ceases to amaze. The beautiful woodland setting, boating lake, and the stone barn itself are just a very happy place to spend the day and we can’t wait to come back later this summer. Special mention of the day goes to Paddy Slater for setting off a party vibe trajectory that just kept going all night.

When i'm buying something or booking a service, i'm always really interested to know about the person/people behind it, and we think as you’re potentially going to spend one of the most important days of your life with us, it’s extra important you get to know us properly! So we're re-introducing ourselves; we’re Katie, James and Annie Fairclough, myself and James have been shooting weddings as long as we've been married (11 years!) and little Annie is 3 years old and really...finding her voice, let's say 😅 She's amazing though and has really renewed our love for capturing special moments for ourselves as well as our couples ❤️ We’re massive foodies (hence the photos of us here 😝), Harry Potter geeks, and most recently medicinal mushroom growers 😊❤️✨🍄📸

What is this, our second post of the week?! We're really trying to be more active on socials as we often go quiet as we're stuck into the production side of things or we're chasing our toddler around who can very easily outpace us now! 😅

Flashback to Eve and Paul's wedding day at Wyresdale Park; it was one of those gloriously warm days that stands out in my mind as one of the most emotional, joyful and fun-filled weddings we've had the honour of capturing. Here are a few of our faves.

We’ve just delivered the gallery from these guy’s wedding day and what a day it was! They really knew how to throw an incredible party and at one of our favourite places too 🎶💃🏻🕺🏻🎶

Shooting weddings is all about the people for us, checking out how they interact with each other, gauging whether certain people are camera-shy and so lowering our cameras to chat and make them feel comfy having us around. We get it can feel awkward, I mean, how often do you have someone follow you around with a camera for the day?! So to get the amazing reactions you see us post on our socials and website gives us a real sense of achievement, we bloody love what we do ❤️

We’re very lucky to get to work at some incredible places and in the coming months we’re going to be featuring some of our favourite venues.

Today we have Browsholme Hall & The Tithe Barn, an absolutely stunning venue in the parish of Bowland Forest Low in the borough of Ribble Valley, Lancashire. Browsholme cater for all types of weddings - intimate weddings, large weddings, outdoor weddings and it’s simply the photographer/videographer’s dream.

These guys got married by the Italian steps. It was just magical being out in nature, their guests were in awe of their surroundings witnessing them get married. We loved it. You also have the option to get married by a lily pond beneath a rustic pavilion, within ancient woodlands surrounded by native trees, or on the front lawn in front of the historic hall within beautifully kept gardens and parkland.

If you’re looking for an indoor wedding (where the wedding breakfast actually takes place too) and fancy a rustic barn (I bloody LOVE a rustic barn) type vibe, you’ve also got the option of the tithe barn. It’s one of the most authentic barn wedding venues out there, with it’s flagstone floors, oak beams and exposed stone and the added touch of hundreds of twinkly lights draped from the ceiling to set the romantic mood. It definitely has the wow factor when you walk in.

Browsholme Hall and Tithe Barn really is a pleasure to work at every time and we can't wait to be back there later this year 💚💚💚

After several covid related postponements, illness and the birth of their gorgeous little boy Cohen, Charlotte and Pete finally got to celebrate their wedding with all their friends and family at The Florrie in Liverpool. We took them off for a few photos of just the two of them, to give them time to go "what the...we did it?!" and to get some lovely photos of course. We were treated to a couple of feathered friends making a literal photo bomb too! Thank you for having us guys, we had a brilliant time 🥂🥰

We were back at Browsholme Hall & The Tithe Barn at the weekend shooting Jennie and Chris's wedding day and it was an absolute dream from start to finish. The sun shone down on their ceremony which took place on the Italian Steps and Jennie very much took everyone's breath away (especially Chris's!) when she walked down the extremely picturesque aisle. Thank you for having us along guys, it was incredible.

P.S. "FROG SPAWN!!!" (you had to be there 😝 )

The hugest of thank yous to Jane from Don't Delete The Kisses for shooting with me, you were amazing.

Yesterday was amaaaaaazing! We spent the day with Natasha and Aaron and it was a real family affair; they had their party at Aaron’s childhood home with all their favourite people pitching in to make it THE best diy wedding as well as handmade garden games and a chippy tea. Natasha and Aaron planned the best party, thanks so much for having us along for the ride ❤️❤️❤️

We were back at the glorious Palm House Sefton Park in Liverpool to shoot Kate and Fraser’s wedding last week and all we can say is WOW, what a day! It was full of allllllll of the emotions and we got up-close and personal to all of the action, capturing all the moments as they unfolded. James has officially gotten the license to go way up in the dome of the Palm House, so he was able to climb (with the aid of a harness and a very nervous Katie watching on!) up to shoot the party from a whole new viewpoint! Kate, Fraser and their little girl, Alice are the sweetest most genuine people you could meet and were a pleasure to hang out with, as were the rest of the wedding party. Can we do it all again please?! Here is a cheeky preview from the day…

We've been the house of the plague recently due to our little petri dish (toddler) bringing bugs home from nursery. Bless her, she's fully better now and we are (mostly!) so we're full steam ahead with our editing this week.

So firstly we have a few of our faves from the very cute Zoey and George's pre-wedding shoot. It was so nice for us all to get to know each other more and get some shots of them in a really cool urban setting. We can't wait for the big day next year now!
