As Cumbria’s leading wedding photographers we are used to photographing weddings at some beautiful and amazing venues, but Blairquhan Castle in Ayrshire is certainly something special. Regarded by many as one of the top fifty venues in the world to be married, we were very excited about spending the day with Ruth & Thomas on such a wonderful occasion. But just when you thought it could not get any better you also find out that the wedding is fifties themed. Ruth had done a fantastic job in arranging so much incredible detail for the day, making it a dream for us as photographers. We photographed the wedding of Ruth’s sister a few years ago and so it was lovely to be back with their family once again and we would like to thank them all for allowing us to join them on such a special and memorable occasion

I really enjoyed the time with Kate & Lee as they tied the knot at the Old Black Smiths in Gretna Green. As you can see, I just tried to stay in the background for some reportage style photography as the couple enjoyed some champagne on the balcony of the overlooking Smith’s hotel. Initially it was just the three of us but we had to drag a couple off the street to be witnesses, they were over the moon and it certainly made their day, leaving them with lasting memories of their visit to Gretna Green. We finished off the shoot with a few modern posed pictures around Smiths Hotel.


For a midweek wedding with coverage for 1-2 hours, I normally charge in the region of £295 and provide the images on a disc for you to print out as you like. This is fantastic value particularly when you view the quality of our work.
