Yesterday Hamish & I headed up to the Lake District to join Gabriella & Ross for their wedding photography at Askham Hall, near Penrith! When the weather is good in the Lakes, there’s no place better (though don’t let The Yorkshire Dales hear me say that!), and the scenic route up via nearby Ullswater really set the scene […]

![Following on from 2025's daily themed highlights for the 12 days of Christmas... On the 3rd day of Christmas my true love (photography!) gave to me… THE PORTRAITS!
Whether it's night or day, sunny or rainy, I love that there's always portrait treasure to be found! These are a few of my faves from across the weddings I've photographed in 2025.
I try to get this section of the day done in 15-20mins, and it helps speed things along by having been trained at the pre-wedding practice shoot I do with every couple (see slide 2 for a wedding and 'pre-wedding' portrait from Harneet + Sid's lovely wedding).
I've always found a pre-wedding practice squirm (I mean "shoot") invaluable. It serves so many useful purposes; to get to know the couple better and get on the same page about the big day logistics/group shots and to get the couple used to being papped. But not only do they go into the wedding day having seen their pics but it makes the wedding portraits quicker so they're quickly back at the party with their guests!
ps. If you're looking for a 'tog and you like the vibes of my portraits, remember you can check my live availability on my website [link in bio] and use my calendarly scheduler to book in for a no pressure video chat in the new year.](https://barnabyaldrick.com/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
