I don’t often look back at the weddings I cover – there’s rarely time as there’s always another one around the corner - but Christmas gets you in a reflective sort of mood and I recently found myself looking back at an ecle[...]

- At one of my first Preston wedding photography shoots of the year, I’m reminded just why I enjoy civil wedding ceremonies so much.
