In the past five years I’ve been to a lot of different weddings, but this Barrington Tops wedding held on private property was pretty special. A lot of you know that I grew up in the Gloucester area, so it’s always a treat to shoot back there…it was more than just that though.

At so many weddings, it’s a race against the clock. We have to get family formals done on time, to get bridal party photos done on time, so that the reception can start on time…sometimes it feels as though everyone is so busy chasing the schedule, there’s no time to relax and savour the moment. Not so with Gillian & Mike. Held at the base of Barrington Tops National Park, the whole day had a beautifully serene atmosphere to it. Instead of a sit-down meal, guests were given picnic blankets and baskets and told to find a spot themselves. No seating plan, no bridal party, no traffic lights or time limits or anything else to get in the way.

These guys knew how to throw a wedding, and I was only too happy to be a part of it.
