On a bright and sunny Portsmouth morning, Andrea arrived at St Jude's Church in Southsea, Portsmouth, dressed in a beautiful ivory wedding gown. Her sisters, the bridesmaids, were dressed in lilac and all looked beautiful and so relaxed.

Andrea and Anthony are a couple that, as soon as you meet them, you know they are perfect for each other. There is a real ease between them, and their friendship and love for each other really shines through.

After the ceremony we headed off to the Southsea Rose gardens for some photographs of the two of them before moving on to the Queens hotel for the wedding breakfast.

It was a fabulous day and below are a few of the images from their wedding.

Pre-Wedding Photography Shoot for Andrea & Tony at SouthSea Rose Garden by Wedding Photographer Sam Carter

In true British Summer time tradition, the weather has been very changeable. It can be sunny in the morning and pouring with rain in the afternoon. Last Sunday I woke up to find it tipping down outside and my heart sank. I was due to photograph a pre-wedding shoot for a great couple, Andrea and Tony, that afternoon at the Southsea Rose Garden, but if this rain kept up we would have to re-think the shoot. Fortunately a few hours later the Sun burnt away the clouds and chased away the rain.

Southsea Rose Garden is a real hidden gem. tucked away along the sea front in Southsea near Portsmouth, it is housed in the remains of Lumps Fort which dates back to the 1860's. It is a sanctuary of peace and tranquility just metres from the popular Southsea sea front.

Andrea and Tony were a dream to photograph. They are very comfortable with each other in front of the camera and happy to play with the camera and have some fun. We took several shots around the rose garden and also in the Japanese garden next door. Here are a few of the images from the shoot.
