Naomi & Josh's wedding | Rudding Park wedding photography

Where do I even begin with Naomi and Josh’s wedding at the gorgeous Rudding Park Hotel & Spa just outside Harrogate? This day had everything – laughter, happy tears, surprise speeches, and even a romantic boat trip!

From the moment Naomi walked down the aisle, the emotion was sky-high. Josh and Naomi’s dad both tried to keep it together… but let’s just say the tissues were working overtime! There’s nothing quite like that first look moment – absolute magic.

Then came one of my favourite parts of the day – Naomi and Josh decided to hop into a little rowing boat (yes, in full wedding attire!) and float across the lake to “Love Island” (the real one, not the reality show!) for their couple portraits. It was pure romance meets comedy gold, and the photos turned out insanely gorgeous.

But the real show-stealer? Their son Jacob, who grabbed the mic at the end of the speeches and decided to give a few words of his own. Cue the entire room bursting into laughter – and possibly a few more tears. What a legend!

We ended the night with some seriously epic shots in front of the building, lit up by cold sparklers – the perfect sparkly send-off for this amazing couple.

Huge shoutout to Beth Lyds Creation, the fantastic wedding content creator I worked with for the first time – such a joy to team up with someone so creative and fun! Check her out on Instagram: @bethlydscreation.

Naomi and Josh – thank you for a day full of laughs, love, and the kind of moments that make my job an absolute dream.
