This Saturday gone, Karen and I were in Chichester to photograph Ken and Hery at the Assembly Rooms.
Ken and Hery are a lovely couple who clearly adore each other. Starting out from Croydon first thing, we left some gloomy weather behind and as we headed South into Sussex the sun came out and proceeded to stay out all day. Lovely.
Our first port of call was to meet Hery at the Royal Norfolk Hotel, Bognor. Here she is just having the finishing touches applied to her hair and makeup for the day…
Next stop was to visit Ken. Ken is an accomplished man – both a photographer and martial arts expert! However, even 5th Dan Aikido experts still benefit from a good Mum to apply their special magic for a finishing touch!
Here’s a snip from the wedding ceremony itself with a wonderful light breaking through ornate curtains
Still in the Assembly Rooms building, our couple posed for a few minutes on the stairs and then…
…we went on to Priory park to catch up with the guests … and of course we also took this opportunity to add to the wedding photos. Here’s a nice one of Ken and Hery, with me breaking all the ‘rules’ by shooting straight into the light. What are rules for anyway? 🙂
Back to the reception, it was time for the speeches. Here’s our best man, in full flow – and his appreciative audience!
What do you follow that up with? Well a rousing rendition of “Zip a Dee Doo Dah” of course! Guests from all corners of the globe enjoying themselves together – a wonderful sight.
Here’s a quick one of the cake, made by Hery herself. Looks great, tasted great (and I can vouch for that)!
And finally… one more of Ken and Hery together.
A lovely wedding on a sunny day.
Rob.
