Wedding of Megan & Jon Batty, Notley Abbey, 21st August 2009

I will over the coming weeks be featuring images from lots of the weddings I have photographed this year but never posted on the Blog starting with some more images from the lovely wedding of Megan & Jon Batty at Notley Abbey. When I arrived the sun was shining and by the time I had started to do the bridal preparations shots with Megan and her bridesmaids the mother of all rainstorms was raging outside the window. This did not bode well as at Notley you have the opportunity to get married outside (weather permitting) but they make this final call about an hour before the ceremony. Suddenly the rain stopped and the sun came out so it was thumbs up for the outside ceremony. All went well until the heavens clouded over again and we had a downpour again halfway through the ceremony. Jon’s ushers and best man were at the ready with the brolly’s for the happy couple whilst the guests grabbed what they could to shield themselves from the rain. At Notley there is a sort of hole in the wall where you do the contacting words and vows so at least Jon and Megan didn’t have to get too wet and the benefit is that they did the signing of the register inside Notley itself. Jon was in for a surprise when Megan picked up a violin and serenaded his with her bridesmaid on lead vocals and the other bridesmaid on keyboards (talented bunch!). When we went off to do the signature shots of Jon & Megan it was beautiful, so much so we even managed to do some sitting down shots on the lawns (I take my trusty sheet of po
lythene for this so bride doesn’t get wet sitting down!). The rest of the wedding went really smoothly and we got some really super shots. I am really looking forward to designing their album which is the beautiful 15×12 inch Queensberry so the wedding will look totally stunning presented in one of the best albums in the world (I just LOVE my Queensberry albums!). Jon and Megan jetted off to a Safari in Tanzania and then a week relaxing on Zanzibar and had a totally relaxed time. Lovely wedding, super couple, lovely venue.
