Selina & Anthony July 21, 2010

I had the pleasure of shooting Selina & Anthonys wedding a few weeks ago, on a very hot day, at Jesmond Dene House.
I had previously covered Anthony's sisters wedding a few years earlier, so it means a lot to be asked back to do another wedding for their family.

I hope you love the images - and dont mind being used as our first caption competition!!

Caption Competition!! July 21, 2010

At most weddings we do, we end up with some images that just make us laugh for one reason or another - so we decided to start sharing them with you!
This is one of those that when I came to edit the images from Selina & Anthony's wedding, just made me laugh as there's a lot going on in it........
whats the cpation do you think??

No prizes I'm afraid apart from the satisfaction of making people laugh!!

So go on then - do your worst!!

Lindsey & Mike July 9, 2010

My mission for the day, as set by Lindsey, Mike, their family and friends, was to capture Mike smiling!! Luckily for me, there were many reasons for Mike to smile on their wedding day - the perfect weather, the stunning setting, a gorgeous bride, a fantastic group of family and friends, a cracking best man's speech (despite the yawn from the back), and some amazing dance moves as the night rolled on.

Below are some images from the day that Lindsey and Mike might like to consider for their Thank You cards.

Also, I'd like to use this space to say thanks so much to Lindsey and Mikes guests and family for making me feel so welcome and part of the celebrations.

Lastly, if you haven't been to Middleton Lodge near Darlington, I suggest you find a reason to visit (a wedding perhaps?).

Cheers, Bec.



















So Mr & Mrs Rudd, which will it be?

HIlary & Simon June 29, 2010

What can I say about Hilary and Simons wedding? It was one of those that had me emotional right from the start!! Spending time with Hilary and her family and friends in the morning was a real privilege and I was made to feel very at home by Mary & Dave in their house.

Simon and the boys were getting ready at Malmaison, and Bec went along to capture some shots of their final preparations.

After a ceremony at The Immaculate Heart of Mary Church in Monkseaton, we all headed up to a very blustery Alnwick castle for the reception.

I have attached below the slideshow of their day - enjoy!!

Its been a while since we updated the blog, so expect a few more - but here's the start of our update - Claire and Nick were married on 22nd May on a scorching hot day in Newcastle. Click below to see their slideshow.

playing with my phone..... April 27, 2010

You can tell I had no work on at the weekend...I downloaded a couple of new apps for my phone - this is one of my favourites...it takes 8 shots one after the other to get an action montage.
Got some shots of Max playing football!

Coastal Retreats April 15, 2010

We first met the lovely Leaver family in 2008 when they were staying at a Coastal Retreats cottage up in Northumberland. At that time they were five.....now they are six, and so we did another shoot for them last week to include the new addition, George!!

We do lots of shoots for Coastal Retreats clients whilst they are on holiday. Its a perfect opportunity to get some family shots whilst you are all together, relaxed and having fun!

Check out the beautiful cottages on their website - Coastal Retreats

Amelia's Christening February 24, 2010

Recently my brother and sister in law asked me to document my youngest niece's Christening. So last weekend we packed up the dog (affectionately known as Aunty Bumpy to the girls!!) and headed for Derby to celebrate Amelia. Thanks for a great weekend Jeremy and Catherine, you'll be impressed to know the slab of cake you sent us home with made it the entire journey and we didn't stop once to stock up on sausage rolls. It was great to meet friends and family and I hope you enjoy these images. Grandparents........have your Kleenex handy!!!
Love Bec xxx

If you'd like information on family portrait sessions, please call on 0191 222 1309 or email me at bec@alisongroves.com. Maybe we could arrange to do a shoot next time I'm visiting Jeremy and Catherine!!
