Wedding Photography in St James’ Church, Buxton and Chapel-en-le-Frith Golf Club

It’s the 8th of July 2023, and Daniel & Nicola are getting married!

I think I’m starting to sound like a broken record on my blog. Always wanting to say, “This was another special wedding”. The reality is that it was, and really, I guess most weddings are. I just appreciate being part of these moments. It makes the job more rewarding.

This was another very local job for me, with the ceremony taking place at St James’ Church in Buxworth, and the reception at Chapel-en-le-Frith Golf Club, everything was within about 3 miles of where I live. You’ve got to love an easy commute.

Of course, distance is no obstacle. I’m used to working all over the UK and even overseas, so wherever your wedding is, give me a call and count me in!

P.S. Wedding VIPs… you’ll find all the photos from the wedding at the bottom of the blog.

The day started following both the bride and groom parties at two separate terraces in Buxworth, Derbyshire.

The novelty was that they were only two doors apart, so I could jump quickly between both houses with a cheeky bit of garden hopping.

In case you’re wondering from some of the photos, they don’t live in a rough area; they live just opposite a cricket ground.

Of course, the pup had to be in several photos over the course of the day.

And yes, in case you’re wondering, it did rain for large parts of the day from 11 am onwards. Fear not, my trusty wedding umbrellas always make these days more enjoyable.

We arrived at St James’ Church in Buxworth, Derbyshire, and the ceremony began.

As you’ll see, we had one very proud father-of-the-bride.

After another successful church service, it was time to head to Chapel-en-le-Frith Golf Club for the reception party.

The newlyweds and I took some time to walk around the golf course for a couple of photos (whilst keeping an eye out for wayward golf balls).

The speeches were a hit. Not least Daniel’s thoughtful words and comic timing.

As a Manchester Utd fan, I found some of the images… distressing.

We captured the first dance, got some cheesy pics of the DJ, and at this wedding, there was never an empty dance floor.

Really wanted to get involved myself. Maybe I should sometime.

Congratulations again to the happy couple.
