The Reader, Calderstones
Katie & Liam
29th June 2024
I recently had the pleasure of capturing a beautiful wedding at The Reader Mansion in Calderstones Park in Liverpool. It was a rainy day, but that didn't dampen the spirits of the happy couple or their guests. It was a real family occasion, with Katie's cousin as the DJ at Calderstones. They hired a magician to keep guests entertained which was fantastic. The first dance to MmmBop took me back to my youth and added a fun and lively vibe to the evening.
As a wedding photographer in Liverpool, I love capturing those candid and natural moments that truly reflect the love and joy of the day. Despite the rain, we were able to get some stunning photos that showcased the beauty of the venue and the love between the newlyweds. Calderstones is amazing for photographs, but due to the weather we managed to get some great shots at the back of the mansion in the woodland area.
Wedding photography is not just about taking pictures, but about telling a story and capturing emotions. It was a joy to be a part of such a special day and to create memories that the couple will cherish for a lifetime. I look forward to sharing more of these beautiful moments through my photography.

What did Katie and Liam say about their wedding photography experience?
"Gemma was absolutely amazing. From our first meeting to discuss what we wanted from the day to sending through our pictures. It’s so hard deciding which pictures we want printed as every single one is amazing. We unfortunately had a bit of rain on our wedding day but Gemma thought on her feet and managed to get some amazing shots of us! Thank you so much Gemma, it was such a pleasure to have you spend the day with us and thank you for capturing the sheer joy of the day!!"
