I was given a last minute opportunity to photograph a wedding at Mt Annan Botanic Garden for my friend Alison who I worked with at the RSPCA.

The gorgeous flowers were by Rachel Read Florist, the girls got ready at Rydges Campbelltown, the ceremony was in the Water Garden at Mt Annan Botanic Garden, the celebrant was a friend of the family, Cheryl and Bride wore a beautiful gown from Dress Sense in Miranda.

I have more pictures to share from the lovely wedding from last weekend. I also wanted to tell you that Clara bought her show-stopper dress from Sassy’s Boutique in Bankstown, the flowers she did herself, the church was the gorgeous Camden Anglican, the reception was set up at Macquarie Grove Room, the cars were provided by Chevs4u and the location photos were done at the insanely gorgeous Pepper Tree Ridge B&B.

I will affectionately call this the ‘Poser Wedding’ as everyone in the Bridal Party was an expert in posing! It was a lot of fun to hang out with such extroverts

And Clara…what a beautiful bride you are…I will never forget when you ran down the hallway at your parent’s place toward your grandmother and you screamed with joy “Nanny…I am a bride!!”

For those of you who don’t know, Clara and I have a special friendship that started in year 10 and to cut a long story short I am her Gemma Wemmy and she is my Clausy Mousey! I can’t tell you what a privelege it is to capture memories for such close friends…especially those that value photos so much!

Clara and Yusdel…you made me cry tears of joy many times on Saturday…thank you and I wish you the best for your life together…here are a few snapshots from your special day!

This is the first of three posts for this wedding.

More to come tomorrow! In the meantime you can see some more pictures on the Gemma Clarke Photography Facebook page
