The Earl of Doncaster Wedding | Danielle and Sam
MY NAME IS EARL
Sheesh well this is a crazy few days of weddings. On Friday & Saturday I went from celebrating the awesome day of Danielle & Sam in their Earl of Doncaster wedding to immediately driving to London for a wedding on the Saturday. I'm also heading to Durham tomorrow for another dose of loved up strangers. But today lets head to The Earl of Doncaster for two beauties amidst an art deco explosion of colour & down & dirty portraits amidst the surrounding streets.
Firstly my word just look at these two. Danielle & Sam chose to have their first look before the wedding day kicked off in the grand ballroom at The Earl of Doncaster. Watching these two see each other for the first time had me smiling from ear to ear. It was even more awesome when Danielle & Sam went & said hiya to all the guests downstairs before their Earl of Doncaster wedding ceremony. The amount of people who thought they had missed the actual wedding was unreal.
After an epic wedding ceremony we headed out to make portrait magic amidst the Doncaster streets. I've legit never experienced as many hecklers at a wedding. Sometimes nice, sometimes not so & sometimes a healthy mix of congratulations followed by an insult. The people of Donny were on form this day that's for sure 😂
Honestly spending time with these guys was just frickin magic & as we headed back into the Earl of Doncaster ballroom to decapitate some Colin & Connie the caterpillars, the magic truly began on the dance floor. Cascading confetti lit up that first dance in epic colour & I said my goodbyes before the long ass drive to London.
A huge thank you to Danielle & Sam & the epic staff at the Earl of Doncaster for feeding me coffee consistently throughout the day. XOXO

THE REVIEW
After going through Ryan’s portfolio, we knew there and then he was the perfect person to photograph our Earl of Doncaster wedding and we were so excited when he told us he could do our date! We wanted something a little bit more weird and wonderful, and Ryan absolutely delivered.
Taking photos with Ryan was actually one of our favourite parts of the day. He captured the perfect combination of posed and candid photos, and worked so quickly getting us into place and getting the right shot. He utilised everything from the grand decor of our venue, to the surrounding streets, and everywhere in between. Can you believe that some of our favourite photos were taken in a car park and bus stop?
We all had so much fun with the compositions and Ryan had everyone feeling at ease. He also blended in so seamlessly that a lot of people assumed he was one of our guests, and we’ve had so many comments about how lovely and fun he was to be around. And with our more excitable guests, boy did we need someone with his sense of humour!
We couldn’t recommend Ryan enough! We’ve been absolutely blown away by our final gallery, and we could never have envisioned how it incredible it would have turned out. His photos are so joyful, creative, energetic, and colourful, and we can’t thank him enough for being the one to document our special day.
Lots of love, Sam and Danielle xo

This wedding will always have a special place in my HEART. Primarily because it was my last one before heading off to the Isle of Skye to get married myself. Secondly because it was a wedding on a STEAM TRAIN & I got to blow the whistle. YES I'm rewinding back to the incredible Gareth & Ivo's wedding at the Embsay & Bolton Abbey Steam Railway
