My good friend Sandra Cormack of SC Makeup Artistry organised a bridal shoot at the beautiful Guthrie Castle in Angus on Wednesday with a beautiful model from Edinburgh, Emily. We had a fantastic day and I just wanted to give a sneak peak of a couple of images.  It has been a really busy couple of weeks here, we had a great response at the Overgate Wedding Show, thank you to everyone who took the time to talk to us and for all the great comments about my photography. I will be announcing the winners of the draw soon.

Without further ado, here are the images, they are more or less straight out of the camera and have not been ‘finessed’ yet. I hope you like them.

Along with their family and close friends they had exclusive use of the mansion for the weekend, enabling them to complete their wedding preparations in this beautiful setting.

Scottish Wedding at Forter Castle | Dean & Dani

February 5th, 2010

Wedding photography at an intimate highland wedding in Forter Castle in Glen Isla, Perthshire, a perfect setting for Scottish destination weddings. Photography by wedding photographer Louise Beattie, based in Angus, near to Dundee.

 

Scottish Highland Weddings

Scotland is a great place to have a wedding, there are so many beautiful castles that can be used as venues providing great settings for wedding photography. Forter Castle, set in the beautiful Glen Isla in Perthshire, is no exception and has recently been renovated. It is easily accessible from Scotland’s main airports at Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Glasgow, and with helicopter transfers available it is an ideal location for destination weddings. It’s central location, with good access to Perth, Dundee and Angus also make it an ideal place for intimate highland weddings

When Dean and Dani decided to have a humanist wedding ceremony they chose to hire the castle for the weekend, sharing it with close family and friends. The celebration was held in the Forter Castle’s own chapel making it a unique wedding. The video below is a slideshow of some of the photography from the wedding and shows what a stunning setting the castle is, and as you can see they were blessed with a beautiful autumn day.

When photographing a wedding I love to tell the story of the day and you can see some of the photographs from the preparations for this wedding here.

I hope that you enjoyed the video, if you would like to find out more about my wedding photography services you can visit my website or contact me.
