In July 2023, I had the pleasure of photographing Amy & Jamieβs wedding at Roodlea Barn! Amy is originally from London, so a lot of the wedding party came up from down south to enjoy the day in the beautiful Ayrshire countryside. In good old Scottish fashion, there was scattered showers at points but this didnβt spoil the day in the slightest. I arrived in the morning for prep and my lovely second shooter, Whitney, arrived to photograph the groom prep.
Roodlea Barn is a blank canvas venue, so it was a team effort from the couple and the family to help decorate the venue for the day! Also, Amy did most of the stationary herself which is a huge task. Well done Amy! Everything looked beautiful.
Thereβs a beautiful house onsite that you can get ready in and I absolutely love it! So many beautiful spots with the loveliest window light coming through. Itβs also a big bonus as you donβt need to worry about traffic on the day! You can stroll on over to your wedding ceremony.
These moments between Amy, her Mum and her immediate loved ones are some of my favourites from the day. You could feel so much love, excitement and pride in the air!
Now itβs time for the ceremony! Itβs such a beautiful space. I know I keep banging on about window lightβ¦ but the light from the large glass windows and doors is just amazing!!
Most of my couples are usually quite awkward in front of the camera but Amy & Jamie relaxed into it so easily! They're both originally from an acting background so we had some fun with the group photos and I loved capturing their couples shoot. So much love between these two! Itβs just beautiful to see.
Their dog Douglas even made an appearance! How cute is this little guy?!
They went outside to practice their first dance while the videographer and I tagged along. Itβs fair to say we were excited!
And to top everything off, one of Amyβs best friends sang their first dance. WOW! What a day. I canβt thank Amy & Jamie enough for having me. It really was a privilege to be there! A day Iβll never forget filled with so much love.
