Wedding ceremony in progress at the lovely St Marys Church Eversley near Hook in Hampshire
Background Information and Highlights
This gallery features the picturesque St Marys Church Eversley Hampshire for marriage ceremonies.
Eversley is situated midway between Reading Camberley and Basingstoke, and although rural is easily reached from the nearby M3 M4 and M25 motorways. St Marys Church has plenty of wedding day parking available on land a couple of hundred yards from the building.
There are no silly restrictions on professional photography and video during weddings at St Marys Church Eversley. Indeed the staff are helpful and easy going. However the interior layout of the church is a significant challenge in both its physical design the low ambient light and Peter recommends that photographers and videographers visit the venue before the day or early on the day to plan ahead.
Peter shot this entire ceremony in both stills and video formats.
After the ceremony we moved to the Wokefield Estate Mortimer Berkshire for the wedding breakfast and reception.

The winter sunshine provided for a beautiful vista of St Marys Church Eversley.
Many brides like the coverage to start with the “getting ready” at home or at a local hotel
Detail shots of the dress, flowers, jewellery, shoes etc are very popular
A few semi-posed photos before leaving for the ceremony are also popular
The main altar area at St Marys Church Eversley is only accessible for shooting from one side - to the left of the camera position in the next photo, which was made with an extreme wide-angle lens to take in the whole area. It is not possible nor desirable to shoot further forward than the flower arrangements but this does mean that the bride's face is not visible for most of the ceremony. However most couples face each other during the vows and the exchange of rings and so the bride's expressions can be captured from a position towards the rear of the church, without the photographer risking disruption to the enjoyment of the guests
Our groom had not one but two bestmen
The next photo shows the view from the altar towards the rear as the groom banters with his best men. If you look carefully centre left on the ledge beneath the stained glass window you can just see one of Peter's miniature video cameras which was able to capture some great footage of the bride without causing any distractions at all
Changing shooting locations during the ceremony is difficult because of the layout but with a certain amount of stealth it is possible to achieve a varied selection of atmospheric mid-ceremony photographs
The wedding ceremony included readings by the two mums
Positioned at the rear it is possible to capture the bride and grooms faces during the important vows. This position also yielded some great video footage
Unlike many venues - both religious and civil - there are no restrictions on photography during the signing of the register at St Marys Church Eversley
Photography at the church after the ceremony was kept to an absolute minimum as our couple were anxious to reach their reception venue whilst there was still some daylight. After just a couple of essential photos outside the church everyone quick-marched through the churchyard
Just time for a few reportage photos
The bride and groom had some set-piece photos on arrival at the Wokefield Estate, just in time before losing the winter daylight

Peter shot some of the group photos late in the evening with the aid of some off-camera lighting - which can be set up quickly and easily as it is no longer necessary to use big mains powered lights
The evening came to the conclusion with the display of fireworks
