Maryam and Steve, the wedding





















































Maryam and Steve got married a few days after Christmas. Glasgow was still dusted with snow and the light that was cast across the whitened city was magical. Inside City Halls and West Brewery warmth radiated from every corner, whether it came from the candles, the guests, the mulled wine or Maryam and Steve's irrepressible and completely infectious sense of humour. When the night-time came guests danced, they whirled and twirled to ceilidh music, their hands created beautiful shapes in the air as the sounds of Iranian disco blared across the room and finally they really let go to some good and proper 'cheesy wedding music' (Steve's words, not mine) at which point we departed into the night, hearts filled with love and celebration and a hundred thousand wishes of happiness for Maryam and Steve.

So. lovely! I started to say that the photo of the bottom halves of the bride + groom and the snow on the ground is my fave, because it's just breathtaking. But then, I kept scrolling + the ones below it are just wondrous --- all that movement capture, it's magic! Fab job :)

Oh these pictures (and the bride and groom) are so beautiful. I'm having my reception at West so was very excited to see how the photographers have set up various shots.

Gorgeous, gorgeous pictures. I love that you have caught so much of the amazing warmth and friendliness and love that was so obviously present in the room - without looking at all like there was in fact a person taking photographs. Very, very beautiful.
I guess this is what they mean when they say about photographs 'capturing the soul' - these look more like memories than a traditional set of wedding photographs. Gorgeous.
