International Recognition for Jonathan's Wedding Photography
04 July 2011 16:27
Wow, wow, wow!!! I’m incredibly excited to learn that, after vigorous vetting, I’ve been accepted as a member of the prestigious and internationally renowned Wedding Photojournalist Association. Membership is so tightly controlled that there are just 95 members throughout England and I’m the only one between County Durham and the Scottish Borders! I’m immensely honoured that the quality and style of my wedding photography has been recognised in this way.
The WPJA website explains that it “only accepts into membership gifted, honest wedding photojournalists who work tirelessly to deliver excellent photography to their clients.” They believe that they help couples find the best wedding photographers “by granting membership only to the most talented professional wedding photographers in the world--photographers who focus solely on using their documentary photography skills to capture ‘the moments’ of your wedding day.”
The WPJA site is a great resource for couples planning their wedding photography - have a look at the Wedpix magazine for some great, real-life guidance on what a journalistic approach to wedding photography can give you.

Claire & Paul's wedding at Horton Grange
17 June 2011 17:11
Claire and Paul got married in April at St Mary's Church in Stannington, Northumberland. Then we whizzed off to the wonderful Horton Grange Country House Hotel near Ponteland. Horton Grange is a gorgeous wedding venue with beautiful gardens and great food. You can even get married in their garden now - I know because they asked me to shoot the official launch pics for their new Garden Ceremonies!
Claire, Paul and all their guests had an amazing day, and it was a real pleasure to part of their celebrations. Their wedding reception was definitely one of the best I've ever seen. That crowd really knew how to party!
Oh yeah, and if you look really hard at Paul’s best man and Claire’s bridesmaids, you may recognise a beautiful couple whose wedding I photographed last year - the slideshow on my web site’s home page gives a clue!! ;-)
Congratulations Claire and Paul. Thanks for letting me be part of such a great day!

Stephanie and Paul's wedding at Langley Castle
19 May 2011 15:04
Way back in December, I had lots of fun photographing three snowy weddings at Langley Castle in one week! Stephanie and Paul were married at All Hallows Church in Henshaw. Then on to their reception at beautiful and atmospheric Langley Castle near Hexham in Northumberland. The staff at the castle were amazing as always, making that extra effort to ensure a perfect day for everybody. It's definitely one of my favourite venues.
Stephanie and Paul braved the sub-zero temperatures to enjoy a ride from the church to the castle in an open-top car. Later, they were keen for some photographs outside the castle, so we ventured out again. I think the resulting photographs were definitely worth it, although I worked even faster than usual!
Look out for Stephanie's stunning wedding dress which looked fantastic in the snowy weather.
That last photograph says it all for me... LOVE!!!
