Amanda, Paul and I hit it off right from the start. They were among the first people to book me and put their faith in 1500 Photography. Amanda had some brilliant ideas for how her wedding was going to look and feel, different to most weddings with an ‘Urban Chic’ vibe. We were going to start off at the house first, then onto Park Circus for the ceremony, Botanic Gardens for pictures and then The Universal in Sauchiehall Lane, for the reception.

I have been trying to write this blog entry for a while now, but I keep getting caught up in superlatives and mush when I talk about these guys. So I thought instead of me trying to put into words how great this day was for me – I would post Amandas perspective on her wedding pictures.

Paul and I are so lucky, we have the most glorious, unique and beautifully shot photographs of our special day, add to that two new treasured friends in Stuart and Gillian. From our first appointment we knew instantly that we could put our hopes and trust in Stuart and his creative ideas were just sublime.

His direction gave Paul and I endless confidence, his repoire with our guests was so wonderful, with everyone at great ease and big smiles. His interpersonal skills and friendly while responsive nature was fantastic, even when coordinating our party in their high spirits. (Yes champagne was involved!)

We especially enjoyed the picture that arrived as a screensaver on our phones to the next day, that we showed off with pride, while on honeymoon.

I can’t thank you enough, for the fantastic memories you have helped make for my husband and I. With great warmth, respect and gratitude always, Amanda.

Not bad, eh ? I have never had such a wonderful thank you in all my life. This was a wedding where I felt a real part of the day rather than an observer. To be caught up emotionally in their wedding was a very special exprience and perhaps that shows in the pictures too. I am immensely proud of these shots and am delighted to now have two great friends in Paul and Amanda.

A terrific couple who are just the best. Thanks Guys

Then at the park Stephen, the best man, forgot to bring the permission slip and the Botanics didnt have Roberts and Kirstys wedding on their books. Thats when the ‘parkies’ descended upon us …..

Fortunately after quick meeting with the very understanding staff at the gardens, we continued our session, capturing some brilliant shots. Not only were Kirsty and Robert a really nice couple to work with, they also have a wicked sense of humour. So despite all the stress of running around Glasgow on a hot and busy day – the wedding was a great fun day, with a great fun couple.

All the best guys !
