MAGIC exists and the wedding of Stewart and Ross was an example of it.💞
Two amazing guys exchanged their vows to each other in a beautiful ENTERKINE COUNTRY HOUSE in Ayr.
BUT, let's start from the beginning...
I've met Stewart and Ross at the wedding show in Sherbrooke Castle in Glasgow in 2021. We instantly clicked and I knew straight away that their wedding is not going to be ordinary! For their engagement photo shoot I took them for a date!
Firstly we went bowling and to play some arcade games where I was taking pictures of them, and then we headed to the ALCHEMIST (It's a cool and quirky bar in Edinburgh). Stewart surprised Ross with his engagement ring which needed some adjustment. But he didn't just hand it to him, oh no! ;) He asked a barman if he could sneakily serve the ring with the drink Ross had ordered. The barman put a ring underneath a glass filled with dry ice (white smoke). Let me tell you, it was awesome watching Ross lifting the glass to find out his ring was there!
Coming back to the WEDDING DAY 😍 I arrived in the morning together with my dear friend @lynettegray.co.uk who was filming some behind the scenes for us ✨ (Thank youuuu!)
We were both stunned by the looks of Enterkine Country House in Ayr. WOW. My first time there and I hope I will be back there soon! We said hello to Ross and his crew in the room and started taking photos of the details. When we were finishing, Stewart came from outside in a dirty white top, his Sausage dog Alfie in one hand and a glass of Prosecco in the other.
Little Alfie was feeling adventurous and Stewart had to look for him for almost an hour! I said to him, it was probably really stressful, but I believe they will be laughing at it a few days after the wedding... (are you, Stewart? 😁)
After the mission finding Alfie was successful, Stewart started getting ready too. Let's fast forward to the ceremony! It was conducted by the beautiful @tasha.the.celebrant who I was excited to see in real life! :) We were both buzzing as we loved each other's vibe.
Her ceremony was truly special and Stewart and Ross looked like two Princes in a castle. I must admit, my eyes teared up when guys were exchanging vows to each other. I am a real empath and a sucker for people in love.
My heart was vibrating and singing seeing how much love they have for each other 😍 After the ceremony there was a sneaky surprise from Ross- He organised two A-L-P-A-C-A-S for photos! YES, alpacas! That was the moment when I proved myself when I said "their wedding is not going to be an ordinary one" 🤪
After some fun bridal party pictures we headed for a quick shoot with alpacas and we came back to all the guests. Mike from @something_new_wedding_film said it was the most crazy photo shoot at the wedding he had seen. It was a pleasure working alongside Mike btw!
Then speeches, dinner and afterwards Ross and Stewart disappeared to change their outfits as they had a surprise dancing routine for their guests!
They looked like professional performers!
I was mind blown that they managed to remember all the moves, haha. If that wasn't enough... After their performance a DRAG QUEEN (@michaelmarouli) started a SHOW. That was my first show like that and I always thought it's not my vibe, but it was pretty hilarious. Rude and filthy too, so not for everyone 😁
Everyone had a blast and it was fun watching and taking part in it. That's definitely a wedding I will remember forever.
Did I mention I've edited 60 images during the wedding dinner? YEAH! Before I left home, I already uploaded them online and sent the link to the boys 😎
Ahhhhh, guys! If you're still reading this, thank you 😍
I truly love what I do in this lifetime and clients (friends!) like Ross and Stewart make my "work" even more amazing.
I have taken pictures at weddings for 9 years and I think this is the time when I love it THE MOST Simply because I know what clients I want to work with, I am confident with the quality of work I offer to my clients and I have the best fun, doing ME.
I put a lot of time and energy into my business this year and I am excited to see where it will be in the future, woohoo ✨
