Belgenny Farm is the historic farm compound of the Macarthur family’s Camden Park estate, on Elizabeth Macarthur Avenue at Camden South, south-west of Sydney. The land was granted in 1805, and the site holds more than fifteen original buildings, described as the earliest collection of colonial farm buildings in the country. The estate passed to the New South Wales Government in 1984 and funds its upkeep through weddings, tours and film work. Weddings use its rustic barns, lawns and gardens, with dining for about 180.
Veri photographed Luke and Danielle’s wedding here, with the morning at Camden Valley Inn a few minutes away and the ceremony and reception both on the farm. It is a venue with texture rather than polish: weathered timber buildings, the gardens, open green spaces and rural views across the Macarthur country. The old buildings give every portrait a wall or a doorway from the early 1800s.
For Luke and Danielle it was the ceremony and reception venue; the day also took in Camden Valley Inn in Cawdor.
