Ed and Jen live in the Lake District and after 5 years of being together, renovating their home and getting a beautiful black Labrador, Penny. Ed proposed. Of course, Jen said yes!

It has been a pleasure getting to know Jen, Ed and Penny better over the past year. They are the bestest of friends and it has been hard not to fall a little bit in love with the admiration (and of course love) they have for one another. My main goal for the shoot was to capture this.

Whilst Jen was wholly responsible for the gorgeous styling. I am pleased they trusted me with the location. Ross Sands is one of my favourite secluded coastal spots here in Northumberland and as fellow lovers of the outdoors it is one I knew they would they would love too.

Ed and Jen are getting married at the beautiful Askham Hall in September … I can’t wait!
