Elissa and Colin. Engagement Shoot. Oban, Argyll Wedding Photographer

http://www.debbiethorntonphotography.co.uk

Elissa and Colin contacted me recently to ask if I could shoot their engagement. The couple got engaged only weeks ago and wanted to mark the special occasion.

Colin proposed at Sutherlands Grove, this is a stunning woodland area by Barcaldine near Oban and this is also where the couple wanted to have their engagement shoot. I loved hearing the story of the proposal and how nervous Colin was. Elissa said she could sense something was on the go but wasn’t too sure then Colin, being nervous and quite rightly so, took them off the beaten path that he had originally planned and this resulted in adding an hour or 2 extra on to their journey to the proposal. It was worth the wait!

Engagement shoots are my favourite 🙂 This is because I get to spend the longest time with you as a couple just yourselves, it’s like an extended Bride and Groom shoot on your wedding day but without the time constraints. I love nothing more than roaming around Scottish landscapes with couples be it woodlands, mountains, beaches, cities or towns….the list is endless.

Glencoe Lochan Elopement. Glencoe Wedding Photographer. Glencoe House.

With 2020 being the year for Elopements and small weddings I wanted to blog Belinda and Jerome’s wee wedding in the Scottish Highlands, it was beautiful. The couple travelled from London to get married in the stunning Glencoe House Hotel with their closest friends and family attending.

I do love a wee wedding!

South Uist Wedding Photography. Claire and Alasdair Wedding.

Last May I travelled to South Uist to photograph Claire and Alasdair’s wedding day. The island is unbelievably beautiful and I had a wonderful time photographing everyone.

Here’s what Claire and Alasdair said about their photos:

“Debbie photographed our wedding in South Uist in May this year and we can’t recommend her enough! She was very easy to communicate with in the run up to the wedding and we met up for a chat beforehand to put faces to names which was lovely. On the day although it was a very cold and windy day you would never know as all of the pictures are beautiful and capture lots of lovely moments throughout the morning, day and evening (which I flick through almost daily since the wedding!). Having Debbie around while getting ready the morning of the wedding was also really nice, although we didn’t know each other that well there was absolutely no awkwardness, it was just nice for all of us to chat while getting ready – with Debbie multitasking taking lovely photographs at the same time! She knows the drill with weddings as she’s clearly got a lot of experience – even helping me out when I didn’t know what to do with my engagement ring on the day! 😂 If you are thinking about booking with Debbie, please don’t hesitate as you won’t regret it! Thanks again, The MacDonalds x”.

I can’t wait until I’m back on the islands!
