Glasgow University Wedding to House for an Art Lover

Glasgow University Wedding - Rachel and Brian

Again, I know I cant choose favourites but I do love a Glasgow University Wedding, especially when we go from this fabulous venue onto House for an Art Lover. I think Rachel is one of the most stunning brides we have ever shot. We started taking the pictures at her parents house in Dumbarton before making our way into the West End and to Glasgow University.  What impressed me the most about Rachel and Brian (aside from looking terrific and being great company) is that they had set aside time for the photography. I didn't demand hours and hours to shoot the wedding but we had worked out a loose but realistic timetable before the day which we stuck to. This meant lots of photo opportunities around the University and House for an Art Lover yet still leaving plenty time for the couple to mingle and meet with their guests. An amazing couple who were an absolute joy to shoot. Thank you Rachel and Brian

Wedding at Glasgow University and House for an Art Lover - Ruth and David

A wedding at Glasgow University is alway an absolute pleasure, and Ruth and Davids was no exception.



A cool spring day with a great couple who were brilliant fun to be around. Ruth actually works at Glasgow University. Although it's a fabulous building with so many stunning architectural features I guess not many brides have their pictures taken around their workplace ! After the ceremony it was off to may favourite city venue - House for an Art Lover

 



When we had finished our shots in the cloisters I thought we were done taking pictures outside. However, well done to Ruth and David, we popped over into the walled garden at House for an Art Lover for a few more shots. (Although that might also have been to give the couple a little bit of 'alone' time - very precious on a wedding day) Then we had some brilliant speeches which had both the bride and groom with their head in their hands at various points. After dinner we nipped back outside for a couple of evening shots. I am really enjoying taking some more 'exciting' pictures in the dark and against the floodlit backdrops of many of the venues. House for an Art Lover weddings though really lend themselves to all sorts of possibilities day or night and I think that is why it is such a firm favourite of 1500

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
