Hampden House wedding photographer, now I’m happy to admit that occasionally at weddings, during speeches particularly, I have a moment where my hay fever plays up or the room seems very dusty all of a sudden and my eyes get a little teary (to clear away the dust trapped there, obviously). But at Anna and James’s wedding at Hampden House I could challenge even the hardest of hearted not to have been blubbing like a bairn. When I met Anna first thing in the morning, she had the biggest, happiest smile and over-flowing with excitement. She was like that from the start all the way through the day, so infectious and lovely to be around. On days like this, I hope that only good things will happen to lovely people like this. I was keeping an eye on the weather and that was looking a bit iffy but Anna was completely undaunted, if anything the smile grew more, nothing was going to phase her! A beautiful church ceremony in Hampden House’s adjacent church and short walk over to the House. It was just before the cutting of the cake, everyone standing around the main hall and they asked their guitarist (the fantastic Andrew McKnight flown over from the States just for the occasion) to play a song – the song they chose was perfect, it could have been written for the that moment alone. Anna and James had an impromptu first dance as Andrew played from the minstrels gallery. Quite a few guests had dust in their eyes at this point, lot of pollen for a rainy day. Anna & James, if your life is anywhere near as emotional as your wedding, you are in for an incredible time.

Here are a few of my favourite images from the day.
