Darryl Brooks Photography

I was asked by a friend to photograph her house as she was putting it on the market.  She knows I am a property photographer - I've been photographing houses for estate agents and property owners in East Yorkshire for about six years now around - and she wanted her house to be shown in the best way possible. She has had the house about two years and had completely refurbished it - new plastering, new flooring, all redecorated - so I knew it would be beautiful, and jumped at the chance.  We also did a virtual tour, as the worry of COVID could put people off a physical viewing. An hour after going live on the agent's website, she had two viewing booked.  Within a few days she had offers of the asking price! More details about house photography are at my website   Oh, and here, is that virtual tour!   

This weekend I was glad to present Zoe and Rob with their lovely leather-bound wedding album.  This is the story of their special day.  After five months of not photographing weddings due to the COVID19 lockdown, it was such a relief to hear that Zoe and Rob were sticking to their plan and going ahead, albeit with the government restrictions on numbers.  With less than 30 guests, the shortened ceremony took place at Beverley Minster, before a trip to the Westwood for some photos at the Black Mill, their special place where Rob proposed, then to Tickton Grange for their reception.  It was held outdoors in one of their open-sided buildings at The Farmstead, and despite a bit of wind, the weather held out for this brave couple!    If you think planning a wedding is hard work, consider this - they grew and arranged all of their bouquets!
