Mount Stuart Wedding – Claire & Tony

See Part 2 of Claire & Tony’s Wedding Here

Recently I had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of Claire & Tony at Mount Stuart on Scotland’s picturesque Isle of Bute. A lovely down-to-earth couple whose wedding day proved to be a relaxed and joyous occasion.

I hold a belief that emotion is better revealed through black-and-white photography. While I love color, at times it can also be a distraction from the moments. The majority of my favorite photos from this day ended up being black and white.

Part 1 of Annierose & Conors wedding

After the ceremony the party was underway. There was tennis and jenga enjoyed by all. The wedding breakfast was beautifully catered. Thanks to the couples patience to my enthusiasm combined with it being a small wedding I was afforded the luxury to whisk them away on a multiple occasions and make the most of the gorgeous surroundings. The day flew by and soon they were cutting the cake and the band prepared. Their first dance was the precursor to a lively dance floor enjoyed by all attendees. It was a perfect ending to a extraordinary day.

The following day I had a lovely wood fired pizza lunch with the wedding party in the walled garden. On wedding days I tend to be rather busy and unable to chat much, the following day provided a wonderful opportunity to be social and a chance to get to know the families better.

I had a slight accident with my own drone just days before the wedding and her father Donald was kind enough to let me borrow his. The following day he was also kind enough to help his daughter get into the flower pond for one of my crazier ideas. Truly Annierose couldn’t have been more adventurous rocking the frock as she was whiling to lay down in the pond. The sun came out as well for a wee bit and we got a couple more photos of them. It was a wonderful few days joining two delightful families.

Barwhillanty Wedding photography

I had the pleasure of meeting Annierose & Conor a few years ago at her sister’s wedding. I was flattered when they asked me to photograph their wedding as well. Annierose & Kyle both grew up at Barwhillanty and wanted their weddings to be in the beautiful garden that was their childhood playground. Due to the travel situation it was difficult to meet up in person and thus we had a lovely evening video chatting. There were a lot of uncertainties due to travel constrictions but I knew I was going to find a way to get back to Scotland photograph the wedding.

I was excited to see their family again and get back to Barwhillanty. The day started out photographing Conor and his parents in the Stables, which was quite fitting as it was the house where Annnierose grew up. Conor and his parents were calm and happy and after finishing getting dressed they chatted with his sister who regrettably could not attend. Shortly there after I was whisked away by Oscar to see Annierose getting ready.

The bridal family was also happy and relaxed and I was quite happy with the different lighting possibilities within the house. Soon Annierose was ready and looking stunning. I was grateful to have a bit of extra time to take some bridal portraits. The ceremony was a lovely one broadcast to their friends and family who were unable to make it due to the restrictions.

We made our way back to the hotel and the couple got some time to mingle with their guests. The delicious wedding breakfast was served followed by the cutting of the (cheese)cake. The French contingent made up a song for the couple the night before and sang it to them shortly after the meal finished which made for many beautiful moments including Delphine being brought to tears. After they had a delectable assortment of desserts, cheeses, and ice cream for all to enjoy.

The first dance started with the French tradition of the bride dancing with her father and then the groom cutting in. It was a lively dance floor thanks to the joyful group of family and friends and a fab band. The bride and groom and crowd danced long into the night and I did my best to capture the lovely moments that they provided. It was a beautiful wedding day and night for a brilliant couple. Much love to both for letting me capture their day.
