Leander & Chris | White Syke Fields Wedding Photographer.
Hi, I’m James and I love being a White Syke Fields wedding photographer! As you have probably gathered by now, I love farm and barn wedding venues. York has plenty to choose from. White Syke Fields sits on a working farm just outside the city. It perfectly balances a relaxed atmosphere with rustic elegance. You have plenty of options for ceremonies. You can choose the indoor ceremony space or the outdoor field. Leander and Chris opted for the fields – the perfect choice for a sunny summer wedding.
Relaxed White Syke Fields Wedding Photographer York
Leander and Chris got ready nearby at Sandburn Hall. Afterwards, they took the quick ride over to White Syke Fields where they got married in the fields, overlooking the pond, surrounded by apple trees. It’s an incredibly beautiful place to get married unlike any other wedding venue in York. Their ceremony space only needed minimal decoration which was beautifully done by Wild Bee Flower Farm. I love an outdoor ceremony, they’re so wonderfully relaxed. There’s nothing quite like the wind in the trees overhead whilst you get married, surrounded by nature and green space.
Colourful Candid Wedding Photography
The newlyweds walked down the aisle and the guests gathered to shower them with confetti in front of the colourful backdrop of the pink wall. White Syke Fields is definitely the venue for you if you’re planning a colourful wedding. It’s already been injected with colour and vibrance and is perfect for anyone seeking colourful candid wedding photography.
Leander and Chris mingled their way around the guests as they congratulated them during the drinks reception. I love to capture candid photographs of guests enjoying themselves. These are always the moments that couples never get to see until I send them their photographs back! The drinks reception is when I get to blend in with your guests and join in on the fun. I always balance documentary with candid photography, but I do like to get involved with all the shenanigans as it just makes for more fun photographs!
Countryside Wedding Photographer in York
If there’s one thing White Syke Fields has plenty of, its countryside backdrops for photos. From the fields to the barns, to the orchards, there’s plenty of locations for beautiful wedding photography. This isn’t my first time as a White Syke Fields wedding photographer, so I know all the best spots, stunning locations, and where the perfect lighting is for sunset photos. Couples often ask if I have experience photographing in ambient light in wedding barns, and the answer is ‘absolutely!’ White Syke Fields is beautifully lit and it would be a crime to ruin that ambiance with flash. You’ve picked this wedding venue for a reason, and I’m going to capture it the way it should be!
