See part 2 of Roxana & Simone

When I first met Roxana & Simone we got off to a rocky start and unlikely beginning as friends. We were on a plane from Rome to Edinburgh and she was sitting next me and said “Will you turn your phone off!!” as we were parked on the runway. I have a friend who is quite a nervous flyer and I suspected Roxana (I didn’t know her name yet) was as well. I turned off my phone and said “so you enjoy flying?” “No!” “I’m surprised,” I said. She laughed and I had a really nice conversation with her and Simone on our way to Edinburgh. I’ve since sent her photos of pilots sitting next to me on their phone while the plane is taking off but she doesn’t seem to appreciate it. Whatever your feelings about phones being used on planes the three of us became good friends due to our appreciation for photos and visuals in general.

Fast forward a few years and I had an amazing time photographing their wedding at the beautiful Prestonfield House in Edinburgh. Everyone was relaxed and in a great mood, it provided ample moments to photograph. It was a beautiful autumn day and the two of them were lots of fun and always laughing. It wasn’t your standard wedding and we got to take some silly photos as well I rather appreciated. Hopefully, the photos tell the story.
