Wedding at the Glasshouse, Edinburgh – Rachel & Mark

We were delighted to shoot a wedding at the Glasshouse Hotel in Edinburgh with Rachel and Mark.

This was our first trip to this stunning hotel right in the very centre of the city.

We got some terrific shots of Rachel & Mark on the lovely rooftop garden, in the low winter sun. Rachel looked absolutely stunning and her getting ready pictures are just beautiful. Mark also cut a dash in his suit, which I have to confess, I think I prefer photographing over a kilt.

Sacrilege for a Scotsman perhaps but it least it gives the guys something to do with their hands !!

With the couples 3 young kids  and so many friends and family from all over the world there was a really close family feel to the wedding. I am grateful to Rachel & Mark and their family for all their patience and co-operation on the day.

Thank you

Houston House Wedding – Julie & Grant

Julie and Grant are one of those couples that I just instantly clicked with, a really nice easy going couple with some good looks and an affable manner. We started at Julies parents house, before moving onto New Wellwynd Parish church in Airdrie before heading out to Houston House. Its been a number of years since I was at Houston House so the month before the wedding Julie, Grant, Gillian and I met up at the venue and had a walk about.

I am really glad we did as it meant I found a few, really cool spots to shoot in, and the couple got a good idea of where we could (and couldn’t) go for pictures. The day itself ran really well…..up to a point. Ally, the best man unfortunately had to stay behind at the church after the ceremony due to a car key mix up. This meant he was missing for a most of the key shots. Undeterred we got Gary, the usher, to stand in Allys spot in the group pictures and then photographed Ally when he arrived about 60 minutes later.

After a long time on the computer I came up with the result above – see what you think. Can you see the join ? Despite a little bit of a delay with the group pictures I am delighted with the shots of Grant and Julie, with the individual shots of Julie at the house being some of my favourites from this year…..and I haven’t even mentioned the champagne getting thrown about by Grants mum!!

Cheers & thank you both
