Real Life Wedding: Kinnettles Castle
Kinnettles Castle is a hidden gem. Nestled in acres of an estate in the Angus countryside, it’s the kind of place where you feel instantly welcome and completely away from everyday life. We can see why Alison and Ewan picked as the spot for their wedding celebrations.
To know this pair is to know that they are meant for each other. They are a joy to be around with Sully into the mix and it’s like a ready made dream-team. It was also an added bonus for us to be re-united with Alison’s family – the most genuine, kind humans.
Alison and Ewan have so many highlights of their wedding day. Of course time with Sully is up there, but they also treasured their outdoor ceremony, from Alison’s epic aisle walk through to their vows, first kiss and quaich ceremony. With the added backdrop of the sky capturing all seasons, it was Scottish wedding magic right there.
Mr and Mrs Crail – to be photographers at your wedding was a joy from beginning to end. Thank you for making us feel like part of the family… and for being up for embracing adhoc rain showers.
Oh and we agree with Ewan – Alison you were a stunningingly beautiful bride!
#BigBlueSkyLove,
Alie & Niels xx
P.S. Special mention must go to Catriona’s bestwoman’s speech, which had the whole room (us included) in stitches. And first dance goals – the Keillor girls know how to do a first dance!

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.
Real Life Wedding: Royal College of Physicians
The Royal College of Physicians is a little piece of wedding magic right in the heart of Edinburgh City Centre. For Isla and Patrick it was nothing short of perfect.
It’s a known fact that they are besotted with each other. In the best kind of way which means they look out for each other and take the time to check-in (even on the wedding morning) But also they include all of their family and friends which makes everyone love them more Their vows were the most beautiful vows we have ever heard, but then they are both exceptionally gifted with words so we should have expected nothing less.
