Hello and welcome to the MK Collins Photography blog. Here in these blog posts, you will find photos showing all the excitement, drama and emotion from recent weddings, as well as engagement shoots, lifestyle portrait sessions and anything else newsworthy.
As you will see from the images in this blog, some of the wedding and engagement shoot locations are absolutely stunning. I feel extremely lucky to be a North Devon wedding photographer, allowing me to capture weddings in this gorgeous part of the UK.

With all the bad weather we've been having lately it was a nice surprise when we were greeted with sunshine on Westward Ho! beach on the morning of the shoot. An early start too!
Aine and Oliver are a lovely couple and clearly very much in love. They are getting married next year at Country Ways near Umberleigh and I can't wait to shoot their wedd...

You may or may not have noticed that I haven't posted any blogs for a while. This is down to two things. I have recently been away with my family for a much needed holiday and secondly, I've been very very busy!! August was a manic month for me with wedding season in full swing. I have plenty of blogs lined up for future posting, starting with Magg...

You'll have to forgive me. There are quite a lot of photos in this blog post, more than usual, but there were so many great moments captured at Richard and Liz's wedding, I struggled to keep them out!
When I met with Liz and Richard earlier this year to discuss their wedding day, I just knew their wedding was going to be one of the highlights on m...

I feared the worse weather wise, as I was driving to Saunton beach on Friday evening. The forecast said rain, the clouds looked threatening and the idea of trying to shoot Hannah and Gary's engagement session in the rain was not really an option.
After meeting Hannah and Gary in the car park, we headed out to the beach. Once we set foot there, I w...

Where to start.... As this is only a preview (the full story blog post will follow soon) I'll just say what a unique wedding this was. It included brown bears, dolphins, trains and boats, although some of this will become apparent when I post the full blog. This was my first visit to Dartmouth in South Devon and I'm sure it wont be my last, what a...

One evening last week I had the pleasure of meeting Dilla and Rob and their 2 children at Ocean Kave in Westward Ho! for a family photo session.
We had a lovely backdrop of rolling hills and moorland for this session, to capture the family in a fun and active mood. They were a lovely relaxed family to photograph and I think this comes across in th...

When Alys asked if she and her fiancé Morgan could have their engagement shoot in London last weekend I didn't need asking twice!
London is my hometown and the location they wanted their shoot was a stones throw from where I was born and grew up. The City, also known as the Square Mile and Financial district is a fantastic location for a photo sho...
