There will always be love.

Sometimes things don’t work out as you had planned… Steph & Nick had planned a wedding in Australia for September this year but then… well, we all know what happened. The choice was to wait until ‘who knows when’ to go with their original plans or to focus on the main event, getting married to each other. Thankfully they chose the latter and married in Nick’s parents back garden in Fife with a limited number of guests and Steph’s family in Australia watching the entire day by (professional) video link up.

Surreal? slightly… different? a little… special? most definitley.

There were tears (Steph not having her family there of course was a big deal) however they had planned such a beautiful initimate wedding that was just filled with love and celebration. When Steph’s family in Australia were dancing in their dining rooms thousands of miles away whilst Nick and Steph danced their first dance in Nick’s parents living room, it almost broke me. So far away but all just right there, at that moment, with each other.

Jo + Jim's Colourful Glasgow City Wedding

Jo and Jim’s spectacular wedding reception was held at the gorgeous new THE ENGINE WORKS right beside the canal in Glasgow’s Maryhill. It’s a beautiful bright space that was just perfect for Jo’s vision of colour, colour and more colour!

There is honestly nothing I love more at a wedding than COLOUR. It’s the way weddings are meant to be. Beautiful, colourful, joyful events…and walking in to a room like Jo & Jim’s reception gave me all the happy feels.

Being keen music fans music played a BIG part in the day which I LOVED. It’s great for me to have a wee dance round the dancefloor when I’m capturing the party starting.

I also got to work some great suppliers on this wedding including some old buddies LEMONBOX STUDIOS // ORANGETIDE FILMS // NICK BRUCE AND THE BLINDING LIGHTS // CERMONY FLOWERS check all of these guys out if you get a chance.

Hopefully you can get a sense of the fun in the photos below! Enjoy…

Edinburgh Family Photography - Lauren, Steve & Rowan

I know I keep saying this… but it’s true I feel so lucky when a couple who’s wedding I’ve photographed ask me back to photograph their growing family. It’s such a fab opportunity for a catch up and makes me feel like I have the best job in the world - I basically hang out, chat, and get to photograph the cutest of kids and babies!

Steve and Lauren’s winter wedding was beautiful, with a first look (Lauren’s American influence) and a stunning meal by candle light (click here to view my images from their day).

They were just about to start an amazing adventure as a family together and I was delighted to be asked to capture them at home… (their home was pretty cool too!).
