Hi, I'm Ruth - a wedding photographer living East Harlsey near Northallerton with a meeting room based in Borrowby, Thirsk, North Yorkshire but will travel to West Yorkshire, Teesside, Durham and even further ( including abroad ) should you wish.
We've all been to weddings where the photographer took over the wedding. Well, I'm a wedding photographer who concentrates on capturing moments and being as unobtrusive as possible, leaving you to be with your family and friends and enjoy your wedding day. I love capturing emotion and laughter and telling a very real story of your wedding day, so if you like the idea of a relaxed photographer, please take a look at my website, gallery, packages, and for my latest work please see my blog and follow me on the social media sites. If you like what you see please get in touch and we can meet up for a chat.
Not all photographers are the same .......

Have you decided to get married abroad or outside Yorkshire but would like to take a trusted UK photographer with you ?
A pre wedding shoot is a great way for us to get to know each other and a great way to practice for the few naturally posed pictures I will take at your wedding.
I love to capture the emotion and happiness of your special day.
Last Summer I was very proud to be named the British Institute Of Photography Yorkshire Reportage Photographer Of The Year. Here's a little blog to explain my natural style of wedding photography.
Just a few of my favourite moments from 48 wonderful 2019 weddings In Yorkshire, Newcastle and Austria.
"Ruth manages to combine professional competence & expertise with a friendly, personal, flexible approach. She is such fun to work with & nothing is too much trouble. So much that she seemed like a member of the family. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a truly excellent photographer."
"Ruth undoubtedly provided us with the highest quality of customer service, care and professionalism any bride and groom could have asked for. As soon as I met Ruth, I know she was the photographer for me. Her boundless energy, enthusiasm and willingness to listen to what we wanted as clients impressed me very quickly. Each and every guest commented on how wonderful she was on the day and have since commented on how wonderful our wedding photos are. Many friends have asked, who was your photographer and would you recommend her? The answer was without any hesitation absolutely! Ruth Mitchell is an amazing professional who listens with care to provide the attention to detail her clients want. The level of customer service before, during and after our wedding was of the very highest quality. Nothing was too much trouble. I cannot recommend Ruth highly enough."
"Ruth was amazing from the first time we met her, she made us feel so at ease and comfortable. We wanted our wedding to be a very relaxed, happy occasion, and Ruth's natural style of photography reflected this perfectly. We absolutely love the photos she has taken and just can't decide how we will ever choose just 130 for our album, there are so many amazing shots, I can't even pick my favourite. I can't praise Ruth highly enough, she has captured the feelings and emotions of our day so that we will be able to save the memories forever."
