LAUREN & MARK 29TH MAY 2010






Our second wedding this weekend was in a venue we love working in Glenskirlie Castle, the couple Lauren and Mark chose their local church St Augustines to make their vows to each other, after which we travelled to Colzioum Country Park for the photoshoot even though it was pouring with rain when we arrived.
Lauren looked stunning in a lace gown and antique veil, mark wasn,t bad either LOL.
As Lauren is a teacher the couple cant go on their Honeymoon until the end of school term in June, so we expect them at our studio door very soon to see their stunning images.

LINDSEY & RYAN 28TH MAY 2010






On Friday we had the pleasure of photographing a lovely wedding in St Mirins Cathedral and then the Paisley Town Hall. Our bride Lindsey was absolutley gorgeous in a antique style lace gown and headpiece while her groom Ryan was equally handsome in a unusual light grey kilt outfit.
After the hitch free wedding ceremony the guests were amazed to see to couple had hired a vintage vw beetle and camper van to take the wedding party to the reception, while the bride and groom went to the stunning location of the old watermill in Paisley for some photos before returning to the town hall to meet their guests for some more photos on the balcony .

REBECCA AND DOUGLAS 22ND MAY 2010






Our third wedding this week is one that we have been looking forward to for almost 2 years as Douglas[ Dougie] has been a friend of our family since he was in 1st year at High school when he became our son Stephens best pal, so it has been pretty strange to watch this young 13 year old grow up and get married to his stunning sweetheart Rebecca[ Becky].
The couple held their ceremony in the Renfrew Parish church on what seemed like temperatures reaching the 90s, so you can imagine how hard it was for Dougie not to disappear over to the Wallace Bar for a pint LOL.
After the service the reception was held with stunning backdrop of Loch Lomond in the Duck Bay Marina, but many of the photographs were taken within the grounds of the Loch Lomond Youth Hotel just across the road.

Later after dark the couple had a surprise firework display,which they even kept secret from us, fortunatly Stephen our son was a guest and managed to capture of few shots after we left.

LYNNE AND GORDON 22ND MAY 2010






Our second lovely couple this weekend were Lynne and Gordon who were married in the prestious venue of Mar Hall in Erskine. Lynne was was just breathtaking in her crystal white gown complete with 10ft long veil.
The ceremory was very very emotional, just when Lynne started to walk down the aisle Gordon turned to have a look and just could not hold back the tears as he saw Lynne for the first time. From that moment it was hard for anyone in the congregation to keep from filling up.
After the ceremony we took a tour of the fantastic grounds that Mar Hall has to offer and got some of the most stunning photographs we have ever seen.

I am sure that when Lynne and Gordon are back from Honeymoon they will be at our door to see them.

LORRAINE AND RYAN 21ST MAY 2010







On what has been the sunniest weekend of the year, we had the pleasure of photographing Lorraine and Ryans wedding at Caldwell Parish Church. The weather as you can see in the photographs was just glorious.
The service went with no hitches at all, and after a short journey we arrived at the gorgeous surroundings on Pollok Country House for the official photographs.

Lorraine was stunning in a very unusual gown as it has thousands of tiny pink crystals sewn all over it, she really did look like a wee princess.
After the formal photographs we took the couple a short tour of the park and managed to get many stunning photographs, which I am sure they will be dying to see on their return for their honeymoon in two weeks time.

EMMA & STUART BROOMHALL CASTLE 16/5/2010






This weekends wedding took place in Broomhall castle in Stirling , our Bride and Groom Emma and Stuart originally came to us after entering a competition at the Braehead wedding show 2 years ago.
We were really excited to be part of this wedding as it was a new venue for us, and although we had to travel to Stirling it was worth every minute as it was a real pleasure being part of this lovely wedding.
On arrival Angela went to the brides room to get the preparation shots in the fabulous bridal suite, Emma was just stunning in her Oyster coloured gown, with the style being very reminiscent of a vintage era. Stuart on the other and looked great in his kilt.
The Moving ceremony was conducted by a wedding celebrant who included the ancient Scottish tradition of hand fasting, many of the guests had tears in their eyes during the lovely personal vows written by the couple.
As a surprise for Stuart, Emma arranged for a display of birds of prey during the photo session which took place at the gorgeous venue of Cambuskenneth Abbey.

Emma and Stuart are not going on honeymoon for another few weeks, so wee look forward to seeing them very soon to view their fantastic wedding photos....

KIM AND DUNCAN 1ST MAY 2010






Our second wedding this weekend took us to the breathtaking venue of The Barony Halls in Glasgows City Centre, originally it was used as a church, but now it is owned by Strathclyde University who use it for graduations and various functions including weddings.
Our gorgeous bride Kim actually arrived early despite the fact that the very nervous groom predicted her to be late. The service went well apart from one thing the couples beautiful baby boy Mark slept through the whole ceremony, therefore missing his parents wedding, we even had to waken him up 2 hours later to get some photos just to prove the point he was actually there.
The photos were taken in and around the Barony which drew a few comments from the many tourists in Glasgow city centre, including an open top bus tour which stopped to have a look.

Kim and Duncan + mark are now away for a much awaited honeymoon
