Children at weddings

Should you invite children to your wedding? Some people don’t, reasoning that the parents will get a night out without them (although some may not wish to turn up without their youngsters) or that it will just make life easier and quieter. In fact, all ministers, registrars and celebrants welcome children – and their interruptions – nowadays. And most caterers and venues have a supply of high chairs or special meals. And children always end up being so honest – whether it’s yawning during the speaches or falling asleep when they’re tired! And some of them are just plain cute…

All day coverage – Preparations

Sometimes brides tell me they’re not sure if they want me to photograph them getting ready. I try and reassure them that however nervous they’ll be on the day, however much chos is going on, and however late they’re running (!) they’ll look back on the photos with joy. Whether it’s the little details of the dress or shoes, the laughter with the bridesmaids, or even her Dad putting the finishing touches to his speach, it’s all part of my full day coverage and style of photography. Here are some of my favourite ‘getting ready’ photographs from the past couple of years.

All day coverage – late night

Unlike most other (if not all other) wedding photographers in Scotland, I stay and photograph all the dancing, right up to Auld Lang Syne at midnight. Of course, there’s lots of non-dancing photographs too, but I’m afraid there’s only a few I can show here without embarrasing too many people! And at the end, Auld Lang Syne is such a brilliant finale to a brilliant day.
