Let There Be Life. My 3 year old daughter got a blank DIY Kidrobot® RAFFY for one of her Christmas presents. Today she decided that the time had come to unleash her creativity upon the soft vinyl creature. I think it’s rather marvelous. Here’s the finished beastie.

I recently donated a family photo shoot to the neighbourhood church in order to help with the raising of some much needed funds for projects within the local community. All donations went to auction and soon after the event I got a call from a very lovely lady called Dorothy who had bought my donation in order that she could have some photos taken with her family. We met up and spent the best part

The Wedding of Emma and Steve – Cave Castle, East Riding of Yorkshire. Emma and Steve are a truly fab couple and are extremely down to earth people. I liked them both a great deal from the moment I met them. They have always been up for a bit of a laugh; which was reflected in the engagement shoot that I did with them, their wedding day was no different. Set in the grounds of Cave Castle

My wife has been known to have a word in my ‘shell-like’ on the odd occasion concerning the combination of clothing items that I sometimes dress our daughter in. To be honest, it’s actually not that frequent that she has to have words, so I have to assume that she approves most of the time when it’s my turn to select our daughter’s attire. Frankly, I think my daughter looks pretty funky when I dress

Elizabeth and Stuart’s wedding was a fabulous day from sunrise to sunset. There was a mass of balloons, jugglers, a fire show, stilt walkers, amazing costumes, two wedding dresses, a bbq, many smiles, a few tears and a great deal of laughter. Set within the stunning grounds of Oulton Hall, the day was a lot of fun indeed. There was also a casino for the evening’s entertainment. I lost everything on Blackjack! Over and above

This was a really nice and relaxed shoot with these two lovely people. Elizabeth and Stuart are friends of ours, and as much as it is a privilege to photograph all the weddings that I am involved with, it’s always a little bit special when you get to shoot the wedding of someone you know. I have been the wedding photographer for couples who are friends on a handful of occasions now and all of

These photographs were taken when we went on a visit to Stirley Community Farm, Huddersfield. It is a super local farm that has 240 acres and practices wildlife-friendly farming. It is the gateway site for West Yorkshire, founded by the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust. The farm promotes healthy living and a healthy environment. Yorkshire Wildlife Trust took ownership in 2011 and has turned the farm into an excellent education environment with food gardens, orchards, a beef

I had a great time photographing these guys. They’re a fab couple who are both well into their body art. It felt like the natural thing to do to photograph them juxtaposed against a local graffiti backdrop. They were both great sports and we had some laughs getting these images. I love the goal post shots too. All Images are copyright: © Mike Barrett Photography – All Rights Reserved

Last year was the first time I had been to this event and it was a lot of fun watching hundreds of people run 5k then get totally covered in paint. We went back again this year. I was once again armed with my camera kit, while my wife ran the 5k but this time with our daughter who is two and a half years old. I think my wife carried our daughter around the whole

Out in Dockentail Woods again. I love how all the trees in these local woods bend towards the light. The wood is situated on a slope facing southwest where the sun swings around during the day. A great example of positive phototropism. It looks like some mad wind storm blew in at some point and shoved all the trees over. The woods have a magical feel to them. I don’t think they would look out

My wife and I have attended the Haworth 1940’s event for the last three years running. It is a fantastic event set in the heart of Bronte Country in West Yorkshire where local people along with many visitors kit themselves out in 1940’s get up in celebration of an era past. The entire village gets into the spirit of things and the place is transformed, to such an extent in fact, that you may well

Went out at the weekend with the family and we found an amazing field of tall grass stems. Couldn’t pass up the chance of a bit of a photo shoot. My daughter loved them. It’s fabulous being out and about in the great outdoors. Nature is so beautiful at times. Even in the middle of winter. All Images are copyright: © Mike Barrett Photography – All Rights Reserved

It was a privilege to shoot the wedding day of these two super people. Although the day was a relatively low key affair with only a hand full of guests, it was a lot of fun to say the very least. Laughs and smiles the whole day long. All Images are copyright: © Mike Barrett Photography – All Rights Reserved

This is Victoria. I love it when children are at first a little shy, then a little inquisitive, and then eventually start striking a pose in front of a camera. This is my friends little girl. She’s roughly the same age as my daughter. Both very strong characters. All Images are copyright: © Mike Barrett Photography – All Rights Reserved

A fabulous couple. Really great fun to be around. These two have a natural enthusiasm for all things good in life and it rubs off on you when you spend time with them.

I’m from Nottingham originally and as much as I love my home city, Yorkshire has stolen my heart. I came to live up in Yorkshire back in 1999. It took me a couple of years to settle in and get my bearings considering the size of this vast county, but I have to say that year in, year out, I fall in love with this place over and over again. It is such a beautiful

This is Sophie. She is a wonderful, bright and creative young lady. I love capturing those moments when people are pensive. What is that space we inhabit when we close our eyes? Worlds within a world. Space upon space. It’s amazing where we can travel when we are lost within our imaginings. All Images are copyright: © Mike Barrett Photography – All Rights Reserved

My sister came to visit us from Ireland recently and brought the family. Her husband, who is a top bloke, and my nephew and niece, who are two very smashing kids who are full of beans. We took them out to show them a bit of Yorkshire during the time that they had with us. Two of the places that went to were Malham Cove, and Gordale Scar in North Yorkshire, England. We tend to

Just up the road from where I live there is a tiny yet stunning old church in a little place called Hartshead. St Peter, Hartshead is beautifully placed atop a hill with incredible views of the local Yorkshire countryside. Not only is it old and pretty, it is also steeped heavily in local history. Not least, it boasts connections to Robin Hood and the Bronte family. Patrick Bronte was the vicar here from 1810 to
