House for an Art Lover Wedding - Ruth and Chris

House for an Art Lover wedding


Ruth and Chris's House for an Art Lover wedding was a wonderful way to start the wedding year. A brilliant couple with the same dry sense of humour as me, we got on like a house on fire and despite the winter chill and early evening light captured a fantastic set of images. It was easier than I make out for two reasons. One : Ruth's parents house in where we started taking our pictures was simply a gorgeous house with lots of nooks and crannys really lending themselves to photography. Even a full length mirror in the hallway inspired me to make the most of the space. Then it was onto one of the best venues in Glasgow, House for an Art Lover. Colin, the wedding coordinator at HFAL had some big shoes to fill when he took over from James. I am delighted to report that Colin is brilliant to work with and helps make your day run so smoothly, you'd think it was his wedding. I cant speak highly enough of him

House for an Art Lover gives you some many great areas inside the building to shoot. Chris and Ruth were 'on board' with my ideas as to what could be achieved at the venue and the pictures ran like a dream. It was a challenging day due to the light (or lack of it) but an absolute joy to shoot with such a top couple. We even popped outside during the evening reception for a couple of nigh time shots framing this iconic building in the background. Something that was to become a bit of a trademark in 2014. Thank you to Ruth and Chris
