I was excited to be invited to shoot Eimear and Julien’s Prestonfield House wedding photos.
Prestonfield House is one of Edinburgh’s most loved and famous hotels, and I’ve been privileged to photograph many couples at this prestigious Scottish venue.
I’d previously met bride Eimear and groom Julien at our engagement photoshoot on Edinburgh’s Calton Hill, so I knew how relaxed, warm, friendly and photogenic this lovely couple would be on their wedding day.
Eimear and Julien’s big day was a wonderful get-together of over one hundred family and friends from around the world in a great location.
