Last week I had the pleasure to photograph Yvonne & Luke for their Engagement Shoot. As I've said in the Notebook before, it's always great to photograph newly engaged couples who are clearly in love, but it's made extra special for me when they are so comfortable in front of the camera. Yvonne & Luke were so comfortable they were even climbing trees whilst striking poses!

The shoot took place at Dalmeny Park Country House, also the venue for the couple's wedding in December, and we were blessed with a glorious day which made for some very colourful photos. Being a photographer in Scotland can sometimes make you forgot how wonderful it is to get some blue sky into your photos - but it makes such a difference!

Yvonne is a local girl and Luke is from the USA and they met in Poland. . .an international couple! I am already excited about shooting their wedding later this year. Dalmeny Park is a brilliant venue for photographs and I always enjoy shooting there. When you've got a couple this natural in front of the camera you can't help but take great photos!

Jacqui & Steve’s Wedding - Culcreuch Castle, Fintry
Written by Andi Watson on 07 Sep 2011
Sometimes weddings can be stressful affairs - they can take years to plan and herculean organisational talents to make everything run smoothly. The potential for something to go wrong and "ruin" the special day can prove too much for some couples and they end up stressing more than enjoying themselves. But I knew that, no matter what happened on the day, Jacqui & Steve would be smiling. It's great working with such a chilled-out and relaxed couple who were always up for a laugh - even as the rain poured down!
The weather may not have been kind to us, but the bride & groom's laid-back attitiude set the tone for what was a fantasic day. We did manage to get a 10 minute window for some shots outside and we made the most of it by taking advantage of the beautiful grounds at Culcreuch Castle.
