Katherine and Rob's special day was autumnal, to say the least. In fact, it's fair to say that we experienced just about every season in one day! If I'm honest, Katherine may have caught me grimacing at the weather on more than one occasion! Lightning, thunder, hail, wind, sun, torrential rain.....we had it all! Fortunately, Katherine and Rob are used to being out in the Lakes in all weather, so the howling wind and horizontal rain did not perturb them one bit! Days like this are exactly why I love what I do as a Lake District wedding photographer.


A huge congratulations to the most amazing couple ever and a huge thanks to Alison at The Villa Levens for all the help and hospitality! I've only just dried out! Here are a handful of photos from the day.
