Donna & Craig’s wedding at Rotherham Minster and Aston Hall was all about the moments that mattered—real emotions, big laughs, and a celebration that felt effortless.
The day started at Rotherham Minster, standing strong against the crisp autumn air. Golden leaves scattered the ground, a perfect contrast to the towering stone and intricate stained glass. It was the kind of setting that felt both grand and intimate. When Donna walked down the aisle, everything else faded. Craig’s face said it all—pride, love, and that hit of emotion when you realise this is it.
Outside, the newlyweds stepped into a shower of confetti, the autumn leaves crunching underfoot as guests gathered with handshakes, hugs, and cheers. The Minster’s spire rose behind them, a timeless reminder of the vows they’d just made.
Then onto Aston Hall. That long driveway never gets old, the hall framed by trees turning shades of amber and red. Guests spilled onto the lawn, drinks in hand, stories flowing as the late afternoon sun cast a warm glow over it all.
As the light dipped, I took Donna and Craig for a walk through the gardens. No forced poses, just the two of them, framed by ancient trees and the last bursts of autumn colour. These are the moments I love—the quiet in-between, the stolen glances, the real connection.
Then the night kicked in. The dance floor was packed, the drinks flowed, and the whole place buzzed with energy. My final shots of the night? Donna and Craig, wrapped up in each other under the soft glow of Aston Hall—one last moment before the night was done.
Donna & Craig, thank you for letting me capture it all. A wedding to remember, a couple who made it effortless. I'd like to wish Donna & Craig all the very best.
