Sara & Marcus's Kirknewton House Stables wedding photography was possibly the hottest I'm ever likely to photograph there! Sara and Marcus, their friends and family flew in from New Zealand for what turned out to be a pretty epic day. They got in touch with me last year and asked me to photograph their Kirknewton House Stables wedding.

Since I'd photographed Sara's cousin's wedding a few years previous I felt blessed to be invited north again. To be able to spend another fun packed wedding with their family meant the world to me. I stayed close to Peebles in the Scottish Borders. That way, I was reasonably close for the drive north the next morning. The morning drive took approximately 40 minutes and through beautiful Scottish countryside, I headed towards the Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club.

Sara and most of the wedding party chose to stay here the night before as this was where her bridal preparations would take place. I can't ever recall the weather being so warm in Scotland. The temperature read thirty degrees in the car. The weather forecast reported 28 degrees. Based on these figures I settled on twenty nine degrees for the purpose of my story! By 11am my shirt was sticking to me it was so hot!

I'd previously met Sara & Marcus to photograph their eshoot on Blyth Beach in Northumberland. Through this and the times I'd met them previous it was obvious that we made a great team.

The atmosphere at a Kirknewton House Stables wedding is incredibly relaxed.

On the day, it felt like being with old friends. The atmosphere was incredibly laid back, but was executed down to every last detail without a hitch. Rain almost threatened play right before the outdoor ceremony, but Sara was determined to proceed outdoors, and her judgement call was spot on.

From a wedding photographer's point of view, I can only describe the day as a visual feast amongst friends. Are you a couple looking for Kirknewton House Stables photography of your own?
