Blánaid & Rory


Living and running a photography studio in the busy city that is Edinburgh, I sometimes forget that it’s a city that changes peoples lives.

People arrive as individuals and leave as husband and wife and as wedding photographers, we’re honoured to to be a small part of this journey.

Edinburgh means lots to Blánaid and Rory – it’s not only where they were engaged but also married…

The memories that will long stay with me from your wedding: the music that filled the day (from singing Whitney in your suite at the Balmoral to the oh so chic music by Spectrum); your wonderful parents with nearly 90 years of marriage between them (that deserves respect!) and the warmth of you all.

Blánaid and Rory thank you for allowing me to be part of your story.

Here’s to your city of Edinburgh; to you as you begin this new journey together and to many more return visits as husband and wife back in the years ahead.

Big Blue Sky love,

Niels (and Alie) x

Real Life Wedding: Dundas Castle


14 September 2024

Dundas Castle is always magical at the start of autumn. The trees are on the edge of turning and when you step inside the Castle the smell of the fires welcomes you. For Alice and Daniel September is also a pretty special month as it’s also the month they first met (at Glasgow University fresher’s week).

Real Life Wedding: Drumtochty Castle


17 August 2024

Beverley and Mark’s Drumtochty Castle wedding was personal and perfect from beginning to end. They had all their favourite people involved (from Stepdad Ross and his brother Charlie conducting the service through to friends playing the organ). Oh and one of the best surprises had to be Mark’s family serenading this pair (we will always think of you when we hear the song Alleluia )
