Hi! I’m Lily. And if you haven’t already guessed, I’m a wedding photographer! I live in Ilkley, West Yorkshire, and have been shooting weddings across the UK and beyond for the last 9 years.
For me, wedding photography has always been so much more than just taking wonderful photos. It should feel like having an extra friend there on your big day, not just another supplier. Someone who will help get you into your dress if your mum is struggling with the buttons, or who offers you a tissue when things get a little emotional. Making someone feel comfortable is the best way of getting those gorgeous, beaming smiles at the end of the day!
If you’ve imagined your wedding photos to be joyful, happy, fun and full of colour, then I would absolutely love to hear from you!
…(aside from, you know, your partner). Your photographer is there in some of the most intimate and special moments of your life, and Lily fits in so well like a friend as well as a professional. She brought so much extra joy to our day just with her super shiny personality. But then the photos. WOW. We had so many people see our album and say they’re the best they’ve seen. She perfectly captures the love, excitement and spirit of who you are as a couple and the energy of the whole day, covering off beautiful details with great big laughs, those special little moments and iconic headline shots. SHE’S AMAZING. Our photos are so much more magical than we could ever have imagined and are something we’ll always treasure.
We love you Lily – thank you!”
Whether you’re planning your wedding in the Yorkshire Dales or somewhere further afield, I offer one simple full day package to make sure every aspect of your special day is captured on camera. From those exciting moments getting ready in the morning, right through to your first dance later in the evening (when those crazy dance moves inevitably make an appearance). No hourly restrictions to worry about, I’ll be there to capture the excitement no matter what your timings for the day.
I also include a pre-wedding photoshoot with all of my wedding bookings, helping you to feel comfortable in front of the camera before the big day.
Have a look below to find out a little more about what’s included and my approach to wedding photography.
“Lily is absolutely incredible! From following each other on Instagram and booking her I’ve felt like I’ve made a new friendship.”
Absolutely! Much as I’m a Yorkshire girl at heart, I do love travelling and discovering beautiful new wedding venues. Whether that’s across the UK or even abroad, I’m always happy to hear what you may have planned for your big day. Travel fees may apply for those weddings that are slightly further afield.
I have always offered engagement shoots (or pre-wedding shoots) free of charge as part of all of my wedding packages. They are a brilliant way to get you feeling more comfortable in front of the camera before your wedding day which is why I think they are so important. Make sure to check out the couples page if you’d like a little more information!
Yes – a deposit is required along with a signed contract to secure your booking, with the remaining balance due 2 weeks before the wedding day.
My full day package covers from getting ready in the morning until a few songs after the first dance in the evening. There is also the option to add on additional evening hours if you’d like to capture more of that crazy dancefloor!
Yes – I have public liability insurance up to the value of £5m, and am happy to provide documentation to your venue upon request.
During the time you’re enjoying your wedding breakfast, I’ll be preparing some preview pictures for you to enjoy the following day! I’m sure you’ll be dying to see some of the shots which is why I always aim to send you some photos within 24 hours. Please note I can’t guarantee a preview gallery if speeches are taking place between courses on the day!
You will then receive your full gallery within 8 weeks of the wedding.
