Off to Fernie Castle on Friday for Gillian & Graeme's wedding, on another of the cold and miserable days that have become expected this year. Once again we were doing both photography and video, so I arrived nice and early to photograph Gillian & her posse whilst Brian took care of the video duties outside:
I'm not normally into flowers, but for her day Gillian had picked the most amazing orange Gerberas:
The wedding was planned to be outside, but the weather was looking unfriendly - not actually raining but looking very likely. Amazingly the weather improved dramatically around lunchtime, and Neil and his team waited until the last minute to put out the chairs & red carpet, and the sun came out a few minutes before Gillian did:
I love photographing outdoor weddings, you can get so many great shots without disturbing the proceedings and the light is beautiful. This was shot Paparazzi-style on a long lens during the ceremony:
After the ceremony there was champagne & mingling on the lawn outside the castle. And photos, lots of them. Some people just couldn't help posing:
Not to be outdone the guys were giving it some:
Gillian's orange gerbera flowers were everywhere ... even on the cake. In the background Graeme is giving his speech:
After the meal we sneaked out for a few romantic shots in the evening light:
Thanks to everyone concerned - my wife Anna for assisting me for the first time this year (shortage of babysitters has kept her at home for a while unfortunately); Brian for the video; Neil and Ashley and the team at Fernie Castle for helping & feeding us; and most of all to Gillian & Graeme and their families for making us feel so welcome.
