Wedding Photography at HMS Excellent in Portsmouth

Clare and Paul’s big day came around a few weeks back and what a day it was too. Sally and I arrived at Clare’s parents house in the morning where she was getting ready with her four bridesmaids and flower girl. When everyone was ready, we took some photos in the beautifully kept garden, before the short drive to St. Cuthbert’s Church for the wedding. The reception was at HMS Excellent on Whale Island, which is quite an exclusive venue as it is not generally available for public use. The venue was also quite appropriate for a wedding so meticulously planned by Clare that it would rival a military operation. She thought of everything and the day unfolded perfectly. Here are a few of my favourite shots.
