2010-09-06T11:43:00.000-07:00

Vicki and Mark were married on the 14th August 2010. Sarah was thrilled when Vicki, her friend from six form college and fellow photography student, asked her to photograph her wedding at Croft Church and Headlam Hall. It was lovely to see Vicki and Mark again and share their big day with them and what a gorgeous day it was! Sunshine, stunning flowers at Headlam Hall and, of course, Vicki's model looks made their wedding day a pleasure to photograph.

Roslyn and Ian's Wedding

2010-09-06T11:39:00.000-07:00

Roslyn and Ian were married on 21st August 2010 at Durham Registry Office. As they were having a small, intimate wedding, they went for our 1 hour package so Ann made the most of the beautiful garden behind the registry office. The garden, along with the beautiful weather on that day, meant that Ann could capture Roslyn and Ian to perfection. They then went to the Honest Lawyer Hotel where Ann had previously taken the images for their new commercial brochure.

Headlam Hall Wedding Photographer

2010-08-26T10:09:00.000-07:00

For those of you who have been to Headlam Hall, you will know it is one of the finest and most charming wedding venues in the north of England.

Camera-a Photography is fortunate to have the opportunity to photograph many weddings at Headlam Hall throughout the year meaning that we see Headlam hall in it beauty in all seasons.

Have you seen our new wedding DVD? You can get a copy when you request a wedding brochure directly from Headlam Hall Hotel. The DVD is entitled 'Weddings In All Seasons'. If you are planning to get married at Headlam Hall you get to see the beauty of the grounds in your chosen season.

We have recently updated the slideshow DVD to show many of the wedding we have taken in the last 12 months. The new DVD also contains some make-over images, which we took here at the studio. The make-up is to show bridal make-up and was done by the staff at Headlam Hall and Ariane Pool, using Ariane Pools make-up collection.

Headlam Hall Hotel is one of our favourite venues to photograph, a picturesque setting of a charming Jacobean country mansion within its own four acres of beautifully kept walled gardens makes it an ideal place to enjoy and celebrate your wedding.

If you would like to see more of our wonderful weddings at Headlam Hall please contact the studio on 01325 381055 or email info@cameraa.co.uk

Alternatively we do have an amazing sample album at Headlam Hall, so when you're next there for Sunday lunch, why don't you take a sneek peek!!!

Hope to hear from you soon.

Jane, Ann & Sarah

Nicola Hart & Gavin Sharrock who were married on the 6th August 2010 at Hotel Bannatyne's Darlington
We had a short rain shower just after the service (not that you can tell from the photographs) but then the sun came out. A wonderful day was had by all. I loved taking these photographs as Nicola & Gavin were really relaxed and a pleasure to photograph.

They have just been in to collect their portfolio, so they can choose their favourite photographs at home. I am looking forward to seeing what they choose and then I will design their album before it goes to Graphistudio in Italy for it to be printed.

This was the British leg of Maki & Matt's around the world wedding! They originally got married in Japan last year and had a big family wedding a few months later, as is the norm over there. As they both work very hard in Ethiopia (Maki works for Unicef) it has taken them another year to organise their British wedding at Crathorne Hall, and what a beautiful wedding it was! After getting some admiring glances on Yarm High Street the happy couple had a blessing at Crathorne Hall. They had a gorgeous day and our Crathorne Hall wedding photographer was thrilled that Maki had brought her beautiful Kimono with her as well as her traditional white wedding dress.
