Welcome to the blog for Katy Lunsford Photography. You're probably here because you're getting married, love weddings, love photography, or all of the above. That's good, because they are my favourite things too - especially if you add gorgeous and vintage to the mix. I hope you'll stay a while, have a look around and feel free to comment or two :) If you’re a bride-to-be (or groom-to-be!), and you like what you see, let’s get together sometime for a glass of wine to chat a little more…

Oman Travel Photography | Personal

March 16, 2013

We have just returned from an incredible trip to Oman. The Middle East is a part of the world we had never been to, and had fairly limited knowledge of, so when our good friends moved out there a year ago and invited us to visit, we jumped at the chance. I was blown away – aside from the fact that the sun shines every single day *sigh*, Oman is a country of exceptional beauty. There are stunning beaches flanked with palm trees sitting in the shadow of rugged, rocky mountains; dramatic gorges with crystal clear rockpools and endless desert sand dunes. The perfect symmetry and beautiful patterns of Islamic architecture contrast with the wildness of the landscape, where goats and camels roam seemingly wild. Colourful fabrics, pashminas, exotic spices and lanterns jostle for the attention of tourists in the local souk. Needless to say, we will definitely be going back :) Here are a few of my favourite travel photographs from the trip. I hope you enjoy them.

Adam Johnson - Delicious! A real feast for the eyes and somewhere to add to the ‘must visit one day’ list! I bet you were at times just wishing for a bride and groom to add to the photos. Gorgeous work, Katy… just gorgeous!

Yasmin & Andalib | Post Wedding Shoot Part 3: Lavender Love

February 26, 2013

It has always been a dream of mine to photograph a bride and groom in a lavender field. One day I hope it will be in the lavender meadows of Provence, but until then I’m happy to have found this little piece of France in Cheshire :) For the final part of Yasmin & Andalib’s summer post-wedding shoot they braved the bee-filled lavender; we had fun playing with the light on Yasmin’s beautiful lace mantilla; and set up a romantic & pretty vintage-style picnic. It was one of those perfect summer days, and as the sun went down it bathed the lavender field in a dreamy golden haze… you could certainly imagine you were in the south of France ;)

With thanks to the Swettenham Arms for allowing us to shoot in their gorgeous lavender field!

(Did you see part 1, the gardens of Arley Hall and part 2, a vintage chaise in a cornfield…)

A summer’s day, dreamy light, a beautiful bride, a handsome groom, a gorgeous lace-tiered vintage dress, a pink chaise, a lace parasol and a cornfield. Pure wedding photography heaven :)
