I'm about to get going again with weddings for 2019. Time for an update then on the last few I shot towards the end of last year. A popular venue for weddings in the City Centre is Edinburgh Zoo. This was the first time I had shot a wedding here, for the big day of Susi & Chris at the end of September.
It was a larger wedding so again I was lucky to have the support of Richie Laurie Photography as my second snapper. The majority of the wedding day takes place at the very grand Mansion House. Previously known as Corstorphine Hill House, the house was originally built in 1793 and as home to the Macmillan family was given a Scots Baronial makeover in 1891. In 1912 the house and surrounding estate was purchased for £17,000 by the The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland, and Edinburgh Zoo opened here on 22 July 1913.
I was shooting for the whole day around the house and grounds. Susi was keen to get some shots in the penguin enclosure, which proved to be quite a challenge but rewarding in the end! We luckily had it dry all day, and despite running to a tight schedule for our photo ideas we were able to create some lovely images that I hope Susi & Chris will cherish for years to come.
Below I've featured some of my favourite photos from the day. You'll find they are a good mix of captured moments with a variety of traditional and contemporary styles. I hope you like them!

I believe every wedding and every couple is unique and I try and reflect this in my work. The creative process for me begins with each couple and their personal vision of their wedding day. Through meetings and discussions both at home and the chosen venue, we arrive at how best to capture and present your day.
