Chatelherault Country Park is a beautiful spot for a natural engagement session in Scotland: it’s beautiful, it’s quiet and the varied terrain offers a diverse backdrop for photos. When Ashleigh-Faye & Shaun mentioned they like to do an outdoor shoot somewhere “off the beaten path” I knew they’d love it!
We set out for a nice relaxed walk through the park, stopping at any spots we liked along the way. Despite it being a rainy week, we got the perfect Scottish weather for our Friday afternoon pre wedding shoot! These two were troopers, never letting the muddy ground or wet trees get in the way of great photos! Easy going and willing to let loose, Ashleigh-Faye and Shaun were so easy to work with and I can’t wait for their wedding in Scotland this May.
Many couples who choose me to be their professional wedding photographer in Scotland say that they are nervous about having their photo taken, and engagement sessions always help to put their minds at ease. This isn’t a stiff, traditional portrait shoot, but rather a relaxed photo session where we talk a walk around a lovely location and stop for smiles, laughs and kisses along the way. Afterwards couples always say they feel much more relaxed about their wedding day, and a lot more comfortable with me- both reasons why I include a complimentary engagement session with all of my Scottish wedding photography packages.
No matter who you choose to photograph your Scottish wedding, a pre wedding shoot is a great opportunity to get to know your photographer, to practice being in front of the camera, and to ease any nerves you’re feeling about having a professional photographer there on your wedding day.
