Leah and Ollie’s wedding at the stunning Hackness Grange was a perfect blend of timeless elegance, fun, and meaningful moments. Even with the soft overcast skies of early spring, their day was filled with warmth, love, and beautiful energy.
As one of Hackness Grange’s recommended photographers—and part of the Friends of Hackness Grange—it’s always a pleasure to return to this gorgeous North Yorkshire venue. I was also joined by my talented partner, Nick from NL Videography, as part of our photography and videography team-up. Leah and Ollie took full advantage of our seamless duo coverage, ensuring no special moment went uncaptured.
An Intimate Island Ceremony
Leah and Ollie exchanged vows on the picturesque island at Hackness Grange, surrounded by nature and their loved ones. The setting was magical, with the calm water and overcast skies giving everything a soft, romantic light—perfect for capturing emotion-filled moments.
Stunning Portraits Across the Grounds
After the ceremony, we explored the estate’s breath-taking grounds for portraits. From quiet woodland paths to the grand Georgian façade, each location offered a unique backdrop. One highlight? The iconic Hackness Grange staircase, where we captured some striking and intimate shots that truly reflected the elegance of their day.
A Unique Twist – Laser Clay Shooting Fun
Leah and Ollie added a fun twist to their day with laser clay shooting entertainment from Bond Parties. It was such a hit with their guests! It gave everyone the chance to relax, mingle, and enjoy something totally unexpected during the drinks reception.
Working as a Team with NL Videography
One of the best parts of this day was the chance to work in sync with Nick from NL Videography. Our partnership means your photo and video team are already in tune—helping everything flow smoothly and making sure you get the best of both worlds without any stress or overlap.
