Weddings are always a joy to capture, but some days just have that extra spark of magic that makes them unforgettable. This wedding on the sun-drenched coast of Lossiemouth was one of those days—absolutely bursting with love, laughter, and a whole lot of personality. From the very first moments, it was clear that this wasn’t going to be just any wedding; it was going to be something truly special.
The morning started in the best possible way—with laughter and excitement filling the air as the bride put the finishing touches on her own cake, adding delicious chocolate-dipped strawberries for the guests to enjoy later. It was such a sweet and personal touch, and I couldn’t resist snapping a few photos of her beaming as she perfected the last details. There’s just something about capturing those quiet, joyful moments before all the formalities begin.
Now, let’s talk about that grand entrance. Who needs a traditional wedding car when you can make an arrival by rowboat? That’s right, the bride chose to row along the sparkling waters of the Moray Firth, arriving in true style at Lossiemouth beach, right in front of the beach hut where the ceremony was about to take place. The sun was glistening on the waves, the sea breeze was just perfect, and there she was, stepping onto the sand like a scene straight out of a romantic movie. And there, waiting with bated breath, was her Prince Charming. You could feel the anticipation in the air and the smiles on everyone’s faces as she made her way up the beach—it was a moment I was thrilled to capture from every angle.
The ceremony itself was an outdoor masterpiece, with the wildflowers in full bloom and the sun shining like it was tailor-made for this day. The couple exchanged their vows surrounded by nature’s beauty, and there was this wonderful feeling of warmth—not just from the sun but from the love radiating between them. It was one of those ceremonies where you could see the emotion in every guest’s eyes. And the little touches! They even signed their marriage certificate on the same table where they had their very first date. Now, that is what I call full-circle romance.
After the “I dos,” we stole away to the far end of the beach for a little downtime and a couples’ photoshoot. This was my favorite part of the day—just the bride, the groom, the sea, and the sand, with the whole world seeming to fall away. It was a chance to capture those intimate, candid moments that truly show the love between two people. The laughter, the shared glances, the way they held each other as if nothing else mattered—it was pure magic, and the camera couldn’t get enough. Those photos are going to be some of my all-time favorites, I just know it.
As the sun began to set, the celebrations kicked up a notch with the evening reception. The first dance was absolutely breathtaking. The couple swayed together like they were the only two people in the room, and you could just tell that everyone was itching to join them on the dance floor. It didn’t take long before the music picked up, and the whole place was alive with dancing, laughter, and some seriously impressive moves. The atmosphere was electric, with smiles and happy tears all around.
This wedding wasn’t just about the big moments—it was about the little ones, too. The way the bride squeezed the groom’s hand during their vows, the joyful cheers from friends and family, the soft glow of the sunset as night fell. It was a celebration of love and happiness, and I’m so grateful to have been there to capture every wonderful second.
Photographing this day was a reminder of why I love what I do—being a part of these once-in-a-lifetime moments and turning them into memories that will last forever. It’s all about capturing the happiness, the love, and yes, the occasional spontaneous beach arrival! What a day, and what an honor to be the one behind the lens.
