intimate Autumn Wedding and Engagement at Fairy Hill

Scotland Editorial Photography

A beautiful, calm, autumnal wedding in the petite village of Dunblane. And quite possibly the best encounter I’ve ever had with a couple.

I first met Sarah-Jo and Joe entirely by accident—on a fairy hill, of all places. It was an autumn Sunday afternoon, a little rainy, and for once I’d decided to bring my camera along. As we wandered, there was that unmistakable feeling that something was about to happen. So we kept our distance, giving them plenty of space, very deliberately not lurking in the bushes, and quietly made our way toward the plateau.

Once we realized what had happened and Sarah-Jo said yes, we popped out to congratulate them. Since I already had my camera in my hands, I offered to take a few photos right there on that fairy hill—nothing planned, nothing posed, just the moment as it was.

One year later, I found myself photographing them again, this time as they tied the knot in a beautifully intimate ceremony. It was a full-circle moment of a story to tell in the future.

I love capturing every member of your family — including the four-legged ones — whose joy and personality always make for the most memorable photos.

Every story is unique, and although a Pinterest board is a great way to start, the most joyful thing to do it is to be yourself :)
