]]>On 27th April 2022 I spent the day photographing Charlie & Marks wedding at the Deer Park Honiton.
They were meant to marry in 2020 but due to the pandemic their wedding had to be postponed 3 times! I can tell you though it was worth the wait. They had a fabulous day, and it was so lovely to see and photograph so many smiles, as the guest were not required to wear a face mask due to the pandemic restrictions relaxing. It was great to be able to photograph a 'normal" wedding again without restrictions.
The photography coverage started 45 minutes before the ceremony began and finished just after their first dance.

For the wedding reception the guest enjoyed a sit down meal, and the speeches soon followed after. For the evening entertainment Rebecca and Jason had a band.
The weather was not on our side for Rebecca & Jason's wedding, in fact it was probably the wettest wedding I photographed in 2016. This meant the group photographs had to been taken inside the marquee and the portraits of Rebecca and Jason were taken when the rain showers became a lot lighter (Rebecca was brave enough to have photographs without an umbrella!). In the evening the rain showers did come to an end, so we were able to photograph the larger group photographs on the lawn outside the Memorial Hall and additional portrait photographs of Rebecca and Jason were taken on a bridge which went over a small stream.
With the rain finally stopping in the evening, guest were able to play with the outdoor games which Rebecca and Jason provided, such as tug of war and sack race.

The photography coverage was 8 hours with two photographers, Myself and Catherine Spiller who worked for me as my second photographer. We started at 12pm and finished at 8pm, I covered the bridal preparations and Catherine covered the groom preparations.
I loved this wedding, it was very relaxed, fun and had a few surprises - Joel gave Naomi a pet piglet for a wedding present! It was really obvious that Naomi and Joel had a brilliant day even though the weather wasn't too great.
