Carberry Tower wedding photos – Christine and Marty’s fun, relaxed celebration

I enjoyed creating Carberry Tower wedding photos for the beautiful couple Christine and Marty.

Carberry Tower is a beautiful wedding venue located near Musselburgh in the county of East Lothian at Carberry Tower Mansion House, Carberry Tower Estate, Musselburgh EH21 8PY.

Set in acres of gorgeous parkland, I knew Carberry Tower would offer lots of beautiful photo opportunities.

Being an experienced photographer who has created a lot of Carberry Tower wedding photos, this venue is an absolute joy.

Capturing a couple’s love story in such a magical setting feels less like a job and more like an adventure.

This stunning 15th-century mansion, nestled in East Lothian’s countryside, offers a perfect blend of historic charm and natural beauty, making it a dream venue for wedding photography.

When you step onto the grounds, you’re surrounded by enchanting backdrops that inspire creativity and romance.

The venue’s elegance is unmatched.

The sweeping driveway leading to the grand facade is perfect for those dramatic arrival shots, while the meticulously landscaped gardens are an oasis for intimate couple portraits.

Carberry Tower is equally breathtaking, with ornate wood-panelled rooms, grand fireplaces, and sweeping staircases that create a timeless, regal feel.

Every corner tells a story, and every detail—the soft light streaming through tall windows or the intricate architectural features—adds depth and atmosphere to photos.

The real fun comes from working with couples in this fairytale-like venue.

Whether capturing a romantic stroll under ancient trees or photographing laughter-filled moments on manicured lawns, every image radiates joy and elegance.

Carberry Tower’s peaceful, secluded setting helps couples feel at ease, resulting in natural, heartfelt images.

For a photographer shooting Carberry Tower wedding photos, it’s deeply satisfying to know the pictures taken here will be cherished forever, not just for their beauty but for how perfectly they capture the magic of the couple’s special day.

Christine looked stunning as she arrived at Carberry Tower, driven along the long tree-lined avenue in her dad’s Bentley convertible.

It was a wonderful opportunity for me to capture lots of candid photos.

In a break with the traditional wedding day format, the speeches took place during the champagne reception.

I love capturing people’s reactions during this part of the day. There was certainly plenty of laughter at the many anecdotes.

Fortunately, the weather was warm and dry, meaning we could use Carberry Tower’s exquisite gardens for the newlyweds’ photo shoot.

Many open spaces, with plush lawns and mature trees, offer the perfect backdrop for beautiful, newlywed photos.

Christine and Marty were a joy to photograph; they were relaxed and natural in front of the camera.

I’m pleased with the newlywed shots. Christine and Marty looked so in love and blissfully happy.

My day at Carberry Tower finished with me photographing the newlyweds being piped to the top table within the marquee.

Another highlight of any wedding day is seeing everyone clapping and cheering as the newlyweds enter!

A piper toast to the newlyweds rounded the day off nicely.

Christine and Marty looked terrific.

What a wonderful day at a beautiful wedding venue!

I look forward to shoot more Carberry Tower wedding photos very soon!
