Claire & Jason - Queensferry Wedding
Written by Andi Watson on 27 Jul 2011
Last month I shot a beautiful wedding at Orocco Pier in Queensferry, Edinburgh. Claire & Jason are a wonderful couple. Throughout the photographs they were very much up for a laugh which made for a very relaxed day. I was glad nothing too stressful happened as Rebecca was assisting me, and at that time was 8 months pregnant, and we wouldn't have wanted to overshadow Claire's big day by having a baby at the venue!
Just like in their Engagement Shoot we used the Forth Rail Bridge as a backdrop to many of the photos. There are great views of the bridge from Orocco Pier and it just added something a little bit different to the images.
The rain just about held off which meant Claire & Jason were able to have their ceremony out on the beach. This was the first time I'd photographed a beach ceremony and I really enjoyed it. It certainly gave proceedings a different atmosphere being outside rather than inside a dark church.
All in all it was a fantastic day!

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.

Claire & Arthur’s Wedding

Last month I photographed the wedding of Claire & Arthur. I had a great time, and have some great photos to share!

The ceremony was at Park Circus in Glasgow, a venue I've been photographing a lot recently. The couple were ably supported by their wedding party, including a wee flower girl and page boy who did a wonderful job!

As is the case with most Scottish summer weddings the rain was a constant threat, but we managed to get out at a couple of different points during the day and captured some great moments between the couple.

The highlight of the day for me was the First Dance. It started normally enough with Claire & Arthur waltzing together, but it quickly became a mass flash mob style group dance with everyone joining in!
