Chris & Lynsey – Barford & Baraset Barn Wedding

Chris and Lynsey chose to get married in a beautiful church in Barford, the weather was stunning and afterwards, we stopped at a couple of locations along the way to capture the first few images of the newly married couple. We had a laugh in the fields and grounds after stopping at a tree which is the centre piece to Barford for a few photographs.
The reception was held at the Baraset Barn, a fantastic location that I’ll be visiting again soon for their excellent food (I was fed on the day and I can confirm it was amazing!)

Out in the sun on the patio Pimms & canapes were served, and I managed to drag everyone away from that for long enough to do the group photographs. Some traffic even tried to join in at a few occasions till they were booed away! The interior was fantastic, with many details to record, and the speeches were filled with love and memories and of course, a few choice words from the best man about Chris’s past!

Thank you Chris & Lynsey for allowing me to be a part of your day, it was amazing and I loved photographing it for you.
