Merewood Hotel Elopement – Editorial Wedding Photography in the Lake District

This intimate summer elopement at the Merewood Hotel in the Lake District was the kind of quiet celebration that suits my documentary style so well. Short, simple coverage allowed the day to unfold gently – just the two of them, the warm air, and that unmistakable Lake District stillness. We wandered through the forest and down to the water for portraits, letting the landscape do the talking while I mixed clean editorial frames with a few soft bursts of 35mm film. Peaceful, honest, and beautifully them.
