Hello, i'm Claire Fromm, storytelling wedding and fashion photographer. The biggest compliment for me to receive is:"You made us feel so at ease and relaxed on our wedding day" - This is my ultimate goal, I focus my style on a romantical and most importantly a natural feel, capturing the special moments that will remind you of your momentous day!
A Little About Me: After receiving my BA Hons from University of the Arts, London, ranked #2 in the world for Art > Design, At 22 I moved to LA, California, to pursue my dreams of working in the movies. Twelve years later after a host of experiences working with amazing companies like Paramount Pictures, Warner Bros and Disney including fashion photography. I decided to move back home with my family to the picturesque Ribble Valley, Lancashire. It is here I began my wedding > fashion photography business The Fromm Shoppe. For more info and see recent examples of my work, please take a look through my site or if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact.
One day in Sept 2022, I was emailed by a producer who produces the iconic and much loved BBC One tv show, Escape to the Country. They were filming an episode for the show around Lancashire and in particular the Ribble Valley. They asked if I would like to feature in the episode as part of their ‘mini escape’ segment, being someone who grew up in the area, moved away, then came back and in my case started my own business. 🥂
They mentioned due to the nature of my work as a wedding photographer, they’d love to see the countryside areas that I often shoot, either with weddings or engagement shoots.
So, naturally I agreed and off I went (after of course picking a sunny day ☀️) to shoot my favourite places in our pretty Valley. I started off down at Cromwell Bridge, (which unfortunately isn’t open to the public anymore), but an amazing spot that I have loved to photograph since my first couple bravely stepped onto the bridge way back in 2018. Then off I went to Pendle Hill with Fromm Shoppe mascot Maggie, to show the audience the fabulous views we are blessed with and then back to my studio in Whalley.
Amazingly, the producer loved the shots I filmed & consequently asked if they could feature more of my work in the segment. This included my very first wedding photograph at Cromwell Bridge and a unique snowy wedding day shoot on Pendle Hill in 2018. This was such a lovely compliment and because of this I managed to take up a whole minute and a half on prime time tv! Woo hoo! 🤩
Enclosed is my segment from S23, E51, Extended Version.
You can also watch on BBC iPlayer (approx 30mins into the show).
Enjoy! 🤩🥂
