# Velvet & Linen

Velvet & Linen is an educational workshop business run by Rosie Davison and Rachael Fraser, two full-time professional wedding photographers based in the North East. They curate portfolio-building workshops designed specifically for creative photographers looking to develop their skills and expand their client base.

The business brings together talented suppliers and gorgeous venues across the North East to create immersive, styled shooting experiences. Their workshops are underpinned by a "modern, refined, romantic" aesthetic that reflects their own wedding photography style. Rather than generic training, Velvet & Linen leverages the combined industry experience of both founders to deliver practical education alongside hands-on portfolio opportunities.

What sets them apart is their dual focus: participants gain both educational value from experienced professionals and tangible portfolio assets they can use to attract their ideal couples. By collaborating with local suppliers and venues, they create authentic, beautifully styled scenarios that go beyond typical workshop fare. Their approach acknowledges that emerging photographers need not just training but also the confidence and visual evidence to market themselves effectively.

The business serves creative photographers at various levels who want to improve their craft, build their portfolios, and learn from established practitioners in the wedding photography space. Their location in Alnwick positions them as a key creative hub for the Northern England photography community.
