Summarised from 4 outlets · Updated 15 Oct, 06:00 · Archive

Cumbrian wedding photographer Jenny Wood has reached the North West finals of the 2027 Wedding Industry Awards after winning the Proper Northern Wedding Awards in September.

Jenny Wood, a Cumbrian wedding photographer who covers the whole of Cumbria, has reached the North West finals of the 2027 Wedding Industry Awards. The nomination follows her win as photographer of the year at the Proper Northern Wedding Awards in September.

Wood is 25 years old and launched her photography business while studying at Myerscough College, photographing her first wedding in 2023. She took maternity leave after the birth of her daughter Isabelle in August last year.

Speaking about reaching the finals, Wood said: 'I'm very excited and shocked. I feel my little business has achieved a lot in the past three years. Especially at age 25 and having my daughter Isabelle in August last year. To be named as a finalist after having a short gap from work for maternity leave, I feel speaks volumes for the work I deliver to my couples.'

On her approach to photography, Wood focuses on keeping things natural and timeless, trying to be as unobtrusive as possible and capture the true story of a wedding day. Feedback from couples has consistently praised her professional approach and ability to blend in with the day's events. Couples have described that she put them at ease during the day and was able to capture 'so many genuine moments.'

Wood said she has no favourite part about photographing a wedding as she enjoys the whole day. She explained: 'From capturing the nerves whilst the bride and groom get ready, to capturing people's laughter during the speeches. I think every part of a wedding day is equally as special for many different reasons.'
