Homa & Ben’s Wedding, The Lothian Chambers, followed by The Atrium, Edinburgh
We love hearing stories of how our brides and grooms met. This story goes back to school days. Although, back then, (as Homa said in her speech) they would have both laughed out loud if anyone had said they’d be together and they would never have imagined that they’d end up marrying each other… and the funny thing is when you see them together they are absolutely the perfect match.
We’ve really enjoyed getting to know Homa and Ben and one of the things that’s so fab about them is how real and fun they are together. They never take themselves too seriously and have great banter with their friends and family, who obviously mean so much to them. You only have to look at their friends shots below to see what a great bunch of pals they have.
The Atrium was the only possible venue that could have been selected for their wedding reception as Ben’s parents are the owners of this award winning Edinburgh restaurant. The wedding breakfast was the most beautiful we’ve tasted in seven years of photographing weddings (thank you guys for inviting us to taste it!). Think homemade brioche and breads, home cured salmon and cambridge creams… yum!
Homa and Ben your wedding was such a special day and an awesome party. Thank you for letting us join in and for being so much fun to photograph (we loved your two dresses Homa – not sure which was the fave?) We have so many highlights from your wedding, so here’s a select few for now… looking forward to catching-up and showing you all your pictures.
Speak soon, A & N

Real Life Wedding: Melville Castle
Melville Castle has always had a special place in our hearts as it’s one of the first castles we ever photographed a wedding at. Combine that with one of the most incredible couples and you have the stuff of unstoppable wedding magic. Megan and Jonathan’s story is one of long-lasting friendship followed by falling in love. As they’ve grown up together they are a pair steeped in love and support for each other and that is so evident to anyone who knows them.
Real Life Wedding: Drumtochty Castle
Drumtochty Castle weddings in autumn are simply magical. Andrea and Mike planned theirs to perfection – with the sage greens and golds and oranges of the flowers creating a warmth within the castle as well as outwith.
Getting to know these two as been a lot of fun. They make a top team and have a similar wonderful sense of humour. Highlights from their day include Andrea’s walk down the aisle, the emotional readings, the quaich ceremony (led by Uncle John), the speeches (Andrea’s killer line announcing “Mike I have made you a better person” had the room in stitches). And of course the most brilliant first dance.
Real Life Wedding: Mansfield Traquair
Laura and Calum’s wedding was always going to be a day filled with smiles a-plenty and the kind of party atmosphere that fills Mansfield to its rooftops. It was such a privilege to photograph this wedding as it feels like we’ve known Laura forever and meeting Calum and little Rae has been a delight.
Words these two would use to sum up their wedding are sentimental, sincere and silly… it was a day jam-packed with friends, family, fun and a wee dram or two of Fluffylump.
