Carolyn & Chris - Brisbane House Hotel - Scottish wedding photography

We had a fantastic time photographing Carolyn & Chris's wedding in Largs on Sunday. These guys were so much fun in front of the camera and went the extra mile to ensure that we got some very special photographs.

When we arrived at Brisbane House Hotel it was all go on the preparation front...






The excitement was building in the honeymoon suite, where Carolyn and the girls were getting ready.







Chris couldn't have looked happier, and that great smile stayed on his face all day.





Chris is originally from New Zealand and many of their guests had travelled huge distances to be with them on their special day. They were given a warm Scottish welcome.





Carolyn looked absolutely stunning as she walked down the aisle on her dad's arm. A beautiful and very personal, Humanist ceremony followed.






It was threatening to rain all afternoon so we stayed around the hotel for our first set of photographs.






And then we took a walk to the beach with Carolyn & Chris, who were happy to brave the weather.







We couldn't resist the lure of the teacup ride - which gave us all a good giggle!





The only thing that kept Carolyn & Chris from getting on the bouncy castle was that it started to rain!

Back at the hotel we headed upstairs for a few more photos.






A champagne fountain was a great way to kick off the next part of the celebrations. It was followed by some lovely speeches.





Carolyn & Chris met at a dance class and the pressure had been on for them to pull out all the stops with their first dance. They didn't disappoint!





We ended the night with a few more photos of the gorgeous, and very happy, newlyweds.




Carolyn & Chris - We can't even begin to describe how much we enjoyed working with you both - from start to finish it was such a wonderful day! We wish you all the happiness in the world & look forward to getting together for that cocktail soon!

Kirsten & Robbie - Bathgate High Church & Glenbervie House Hotel - Scottish wedding photography

We had so much fun back in December when we did a portrait shoot with Kirsten and Robbie, and Kirsten's sister Caitlin. Since then we've been really looking forward to the main event!

Our day began at Kirsten's family home in Armadale, where she and her bridesmaids were getting ready.





The logistics had been planned very carefully as the Armadale Gala Day was also taking place on Saturday, with road closures due to the parade.

As the brass band marched past the house the excitement was starting to build.




Kirsten was looking radiant!





A beautiful ceremony was held at Bathgate High Church and Kirsten & Robbie couldn't stop smiling throughout.








Then it was time to head to Larbert for the celebrations.





The sun was shining as we arrived at Glenbervie.





And the guests really enjoyed these...




The speeches were all excellent and Caitlin almost had me in tears with her touching tribute to her big sister and Robbie...I had to bite my lip and concentrate really hard on my camera settings!






After the wedding breakfast we headed outside for some photos with Kirsten and Robbie. There was lots of laughter and quite a lot of kissing too!






And then it was back inside for a few more...




The honeymoon suite was the perfect setting for some bridal shots. And by the way, how stunning is this girl?






The first dance is always one of our (many) favourite parts of the wedding day. When Kirsten and Robbie took to the floor for their first dance as husband and wife it was a really beautiful moment...





And then the party got fully underway!




Kirsten & Robbie, thanks for being so all-round-awesome and so fantastic to photograph - we loved every minute! We hope you're having a wonderful time on your travels and look forward to showing you your photos when you get back.
