Louise and Anthony 26th Oct

Mondays at Pics and Blooms are usually the day that all the downloading of the weekends weddings is done but not this Monday, as we had the pleasure of photographing Louise and Anthony,s wedding in the gorgeous St Marys Immaculate Church Pollokshaws .

The Weather was glorious considering it was the end of Oct, so when we arrived at Louise,s home we found everyone very calm and laid back.

Louise arrived at the church at little late looking radiant in a lovely Ivory satin gown with a gorgeous matching Italian style lace veil, this was a testament to the fact that both Louise and Anthony are from Italian families.

The emotional Service held in front of nearly 300 guests went well, after which the wedding party went onto the Botanic gardens in Glasgows Westend for the photographs then it was just a quick hop across the road to their reception venue at the Hilton Hotel .

Louise and Anthony are now away on a luxurious Honeymoon to Hong Kong

MICHELLE AND YERIK 24TH OCT

Yesterday we had a wedding that was almost a surprise to us as it was only booked several days before the day .

When Michelle called us to ask our availability for 24th oct we replied is it in 2010 or 2011 , when Michelle said 2009 we nearly fell of seat as it was less than a week away.

Michelle arrived looking stunning for the ceremony which was held in Paisley at the St Mathews, where a nervous looking Yerik grinned from ear to ear as she walked down the aisle with her dad.

After the vows there were a few tears when one of Michelle friends got up and said a few words about Michelle and Yeriks work with Jumping Jacks, a centre Michelle opened to help people with addictions.

Once the service was over the guests walked a few yards over to the Watermill Hotel for the reception while the main wedding party stayed behind for the photographs as by this time the weather had turned really wet.

Michelle and Yerik are away very soon for a well deserved honeymoon to Lanzarote....

More photos from Des and Violets family shoot

We love this family shoot so much we have decided to upload some more images ....

Des and Violets family portrait

A few weeks ago we had the pleasure of doing a family portrait for a lovely local couple Des and Violet and their kids.

Although not married to each other [ yet] they thought it would be a lovely idea to have a portrait taken before their wedding in December and before one of Des's sons start a wonderful journey travelling around the world soon .

The shoot started off in the Studio with Violet and her daughter Ashley have a few mother/daughter shots, then some family groups were taken before everyone going outside into the grounds of our studio at Finlaystone for some wonderful shots in the lovely autumn sunshine .

The family were so happy with the shots that they decided to book Pics and Blooms photography for their wedding in December .

We cant wait to do this wedding knowing we will have such a photogenic family.

MARK & DONNA 10TH OCT 2009

This weekend we had the pleasure of photographing Mark and Donna,s wedding at the Glynhill Hotel in Renfrew. The day began at the brides home for some getting ready shots where Donna surprised us with being ready when we arrived, something that is totally unheard of with most brides.

The service conducted by a Humanist had the guests laughing their heads off after Mark made some funny comments during the vows. Once the service was over the families went outside for some formals before Mark and Donna headed off to Ross Hall for some gorgeous shots of them together.

we are looking forward to seeing them again when they return from honeymoon in two weeks.

SUSAN & ANDREW 3RD OCT 2009

Many of you who regularly read our blog will remember this couple who we first met in February when they came to our Studio in Finlaystone to accept 1st prize of a complete wedding album in our wedding competition held in at the Braehead Wedding Show .

On that day the snow was over 2inches deep on the ground, but yesterday the sun shone for the couple when they were married in the Eagle Lodge in Bishopbriggs.

Andrew arrived looking suitably nervous but he soon relaxed when he saw Susan walking down the aisle looking gorgeous. The vows went without any problems after which the couple went outside for a few photos with their vintage beaufort before having some formals taken with friends and family.

Susan and Andrew are now of on Honeymoon to Tunisia, so we cant wait for them to come back and see their fantastic photos.....
