Oran Mor Wedding – Rhona and Ally (no3)

And so the the 3rd Ally of the week, this time Alastair marrying the lovely Rhona at Greenbank Church in Glasgow.

Once again we started off at the brides home before we moved onto the church. As you can see from below Rhona’s parents garden in Dunlop was spectacular, in fact the temptation to insist we returned to there to shoot the entire wedding was almost overwhelming.

After the ceremony we used a little area next to the manse before heading to the city and to Oran Mor. With its stunning ceiling and some very nice nooks and cranny’s  we always get some great shots there. Before the wedding both Rhona and Ally seemed a little reticent about having their pictures taken – however, I need not have worried. On the day itself Rhona and Ally were really into it and gave me some brilliant shots. We also had the added fun of a close up magician (Kevin McMahon) bamboozling the guests while the waited for dinner. You can see Kevin in action below…….

So there you are. Alasdair week at 1500 Photography – great week, top couples and some brilliant pictures – thank you all 1500 Photography

Sherbrooke Castle Wedding – Mairi and Ally No2

Another cracking couple for 1500 to photograph.

We started off at Mairi’s parents house before heading off to Ardgowan Evangelical Church in Greenock. As with our previous wedding, Mairi and Ally also had a small post service ‘cup of tea’ reception immediately after the ceremony. We then took a slight detour to the esplanade before heading to Sherbrooke Castle. I haven’t been to Sherbrooke for a few years and it was great to be back – especially now that the upgrade work has finished.

Im sure you will agree that Mairi looked simply stunning, a very classic beauty with Alasdair scrubbing up pretty well too and cutting a real dash in his kilt. I must also mention both families, who were so helpful with the lead up to the wedding and on the day itself with Mairi’s very accomplished family providing much of the music throughout the ceremony. It was an excellent day all round, surrounded by such a lovely bunch of people. Superb

Glasgow Wedding Photography – Sam and Willie (Holy Cross & the Thistle Hotel)

My relationship with Samantha and Willie goes back quite far as these guys booked me just as 1500 Photography was starting up. In that time I have got to know Sam, Willie, Alyssa and Sam’s mum Liz quite well, they are a really nice family and a great laugh.

We started the day at the Thislte Hotel in the city centre before heading to Holy Cross church. Not a huge distance to travel…….unless of course “Take That” are playing at Hampden at the same time. Our original plan of using parts of Queens Park was quickly dismissed and we simply used the beautiful grounds of Holy Cross which was perfect. After taking some pictures back inside the church (by very kind permission) we headed back to The Thistle.

On the day itself I had wonderful help from two brilliant wedding professionals –  Wendy the wedding planner from Utopia Scotland and Aiden Livingston, probably the best toastmaster in Scotland.  With their help and Sam and Willies planning we got some excellent shots on a beautiful wedding day and, despite a little spanner in the works, a great set of pictures too.  www.1500photography.co.uk
