Katherine & Andy - Petersfield Registers Office and a Private Farm


The groom and best man - both named Andy were great, and worked with me to get some nice shots before the ceremony, and then I was off to meet Katherine at the car park in her Sidley Armstrong - an amazing and rare car. Having taken some photographs we made our way to the registers office pausing to get a shot at the door before I left Katherine and went into the ceremony room.

Todays wedding was with an amazing couple - Katherine & Andy. We had great fun on an e-Session a month or so ago, and I had a really good vibe about the wedding. Fortunately the weather held and I made good use of the lovely old registers office in Petersfield, and the garden. I was also blessed with 2 weddings beforehand that didn't have a professional wedding photographer and therefore didn't take up the best areas in the garden before or after the wedding.

The groom and best man - both named Andy were great, and worked with me to get some nice shots before the ceremony, and then I was off to meet Katherine at the car park in her Armstrong Siddeley Special - an amazing and rare car. Having taken some photographs we made our way to the registers office pausing to get a shot at the door before I left Katherine and went into the ceremony room.

It was an emotion filled ceremony with lots of laughter and some tears - but wonderful to see them so happy to be married, and then out into the garden for some time with their guests and then a few formal photographs. We then left for the farm - site also of the e-Session and where a marquee now stood. I shot some details of the lovely marquee and farming props as well as the room and again got some informal shots of the guests. The owners had constructed a haystack and we took advantage of this for some friends & relaxed family shots, and some fun ones at that - with the boys all pulling GQ poses and then a mean & moody which had the rest of the guests and me cracking up with laughter.

With only a few minutes to spare I stole the bride & groom away for 10 minutes to get some lovely relaxed shots before bidding them farewell and allowing them to enjoy their wedding breakfast.

Some shots from the day are below.
