Sara and James are the first couple to have held their wedding reception at the Charles Cotton Hotel in Hartington under the management of hosts Judy and Alan, and we were very privilaged to have been asked to photograph their wedding day. Sara and James arrived with their party on the day before the wedding and pretty much took over all the accomodation in Hartington. We joined them on the Friday evening for a few photographs in the Charles Cotton Hotel – complete with Sandy Shaw tribute act.
This sequence starts in the rain on the day of the wedding with James and best man walking up the steep path that links the village to the church in Hartington.
On one of their visits to Hartington before the wedding, James got talking to a fellow in the bar who said he could arrange some wedding transport. What better than a hay cart and a beautifully restored David Brown tractor.
A nervous moment for James -
Job done. Round of applause. The vicar looks pretty happy about it too.
For some people a third row seat just isn’t close enough.
Another live signing. I much prefer to photograph the live signing if I can get it
A quick B&G wedding photography session on the village green.
A working miniature steam traction engine – part of the tractor deal. Sort of a buy one get one free. Great for wedding photos.
