Larkspur Lodge sits in the Cheshire countryside, surrounded by open fields and big skies. On Lucy and Tom’s wedding day, it felt anything but quiet — full of people, energy and the kind of anticipation that comes with a proper celebration.
This was a wedding built around friends and family. From the very start, the focus wasn’t on timelines or traditions for the sake of it, but on bringing everyone together and letting the day unfold naturally.
The morning had that low-level buzz you only get when lots of people are involved — conversations overlapping, laughter drifting between rooms, final touches being made without much fuss.
Tom wore black tie, setting the tone early on. It felt classic and confident, without feeling stiff. Lucy’s dress matched it perfectly, glamorous, elegant, and made for a day where all eyes would inevitably be on her.
Together, it was a look that suited the scale of the celebration while still feeling completely natural.

As a natural wedding photographer, this is where I step back and let things happen. The glances, the nerves, the quiet moments that pass quickly but mean everything later.
As the day moved on, the atmosphere shifted again. The energy picked up, the room filled, and what started as a polished, elegant wedding turned into a full blown celebration.
