Horses, swords
and a whole lot of love


Janette & Ingolf

Drumtochty Castle Wedding


Even before we met Janette and Ingolf we had more than an inkling their wedding day was going to knock our little socks off. The fact that one of their friends took special horse riding lessons so they could enact a sword giving ceremony in front of the castle gives you a hint of how much fun these two are.

Their wedding day was a celebration: a celebration of love, friendship and of all things good in life. We were rather privileged to be part of it all.

Mr and Mrs Hovik we think of your wedding day and simply smile. Fun doesn’t seem a big enough word. Thank you for letting us be your wedding photographers.

Big Blue Sky Love,
N&A xx

Real Life Wedding: Portland Parish Church Troon, followed by the Lochgreen House Hotel


25 April 2025

Wedding days are always unique and special, but for us Kirsty and Andy’s holds a special place in our hearts… we’ve known Kirsty for what feels like forever and we knew this was going to be a day filled with so much love and heart. It was that and more so.. This pair and their family and friends had the best day. One of Kirsty (and her Dad’s) favourite moments was the aisle walk in the church. It’s one of those memories that will also stay with us forever. Talk about epic entrance – the goosebumps were real.

Real Life Wedding: Signet Library


14 December 2024

A Christmas wedding at the Signet Library is the stuff dreams are made of. Especially when Planet Flowers added their festive finesse, crafting tables bedecked with Christmas-clad candelabras, brilliant book baubles, and gilded tomes as table names. The table plan, piled high with oversized books and quills, was nothing short of storybook perfection.

Real Life Wedding: Dundas Castle


07 December 2024

The vibes of Steph and Gav’s Dundas Castle Christmas wedding were distinctly winter snuggles combined with overtones of party (Solo Sax anyone) and of course some festive treats. This pair met at a Burns’ Supper so Roddy the Piper delivering the Address to the Haggis was a must.
