A Winter Wedding – St Salvators & The Old Course Hotel. St Andrews.

Ruth & Ruiari had the most beautiful wedding in St Andrews in February. What a truely happy day it was.

What a helpful photographer – lucky I know how to tie a bow tie! And what a helpful usher taking the photos with the photographers camera!! 2016-05-15_0002.jpg

All ready to go and looking very handsome and dashing in deed. Ruiari and his bestman wore the matching  tweed jackets A walk along the Scores over looking the Old Course 2016-05-15_0003.jpg

Ruth arriving at St Salvators – the university chapel .  It was pretty windy –  but that usually means some nice photos of dress re-arranging etc. 2016-05-15_0006.jpg

The service. Very discreet photos from the back so as not to interrupt the service .  Happily St Salvators has lovely light and an organ loft.  It is a stunning chapel for photography2016-05-15_0007.jpg

And……….. the new Mr & Mrs 2016-05-15_0008.jpg

Off to St Andrews harbour for some special bride and groom shots .  The harbour has a few different backdrops to get some photos without too much fuss or moving around2016-05-15_0010.jpg

And inspite of of blowing a gale and being baltic – onto the West Sands, St Andrews for the iconic beach shots.

What a game couple .  2016-05-15_0011.jpg

Hold on tight so your bride doesn’t blow away!

Sensible footwear though!
