A Dovedale Wedding

On Saturday I shot a wedding with my lovely assistant Amy...


It was fun to work as a couple. Amy got some great shots when I couldn't be in two places at the same time.

The couple who were getting married are practically neighbors, but we didn't know them before they asked us to take pictures at their wedding. I don't know anywhere else in the world where someone could have a wedding like this. It was terrific. It was just up the road in a little town called Dovedale. They held the ceremony in the charming old single-room church. It isn't being used anymore as a church, so they could use the beautiful old oak shaded grounds for the reception. The bride rode up in a horse-drawn cart...


Notice the loverly assistant, Amy, taking pictures of them as they drive by...


Here's what it looked like from where Amy was...


The ceremony had Amy crying. I don't have a picture of Amy crying, but here's one of the ceremony...


What a charming couple!


After the ceremony, they had a picnic under the huge old oak trees.


We stayed to watch the horse and cart leave before reluctantly relieving our baby-sitter.

What great pictures. The Church looks absolutely gorgeous. What a shame it is no longer used. I'm glad she was able to use it. Love mum

Hi Mum, Lara and Leslie,
I think they're using this church more and more. Thanks for your comments.
