Advice from Shane: Choosing your photographer

Impressive locations at Hoghton Tower

From the fantastic manicured gardens to the impressive stone archways, there are so many places to create wonderful Hoghton Tower wedding photography. However, don’t expect the obvious. It’s key to trust your photographers vision and ensure your ideas and theirs marry up. Photographing through objects or using framing may seem a little strange, but the effect will look amazing. Shane often uses shooting through fairy lights to create a lovely warm glow in newlywed portraits. Couples who are enthusiastic about their wedding photographer’s style and skill get the most out of their photos.
