What a pleasure to be Heather and Michael’s The Parsonage wedding photographer, on a fabulous day in the countryside and a lovely change of scene from shooting intimate wedding photos in Edinburgh.

Heather and Michael are among the sweetest couples we have met, and they made us feel welcome on their wedding day.

  • Jonathon was an absolute professional ever since our first meeting over a year before our wedding. The communication on the run up to our big day was excellent and he answered all the questions we had around timings and photo lists. On the day, Jonathon and his wife Claire were fantastic and really put my wife and I at ease. They knew exactly where to be at the right times to get the best shots and captured the best moments from our wedding that we will cherish forever.
    We would definitely recommend Jonathon for your wedding photography if you are looking for classic images that are timeless.

The Parsonage Wedding Photos

We are delighted to share with you a few of our favourite The Parsonage wedding photos from Heather and Michael’s superb summer wedding.

The Story Of The Day

The Parsonage at Dunmore Park wedding venue is an impressive mansion house in a picturesque location, less than one hour from Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Our day as The Parsonage at Dunmore Park wedding photographer with Heather and the girls, photographing the bridal party preparations.

Heather and her bride squad, maids of honour Lindsay and Aileen, and bridesmaids Azaria and Amber were happy and relaxed.

They took selfies, clinked glasses for their Instagram stories and toasted the special day.

It was clear our beautiful bride, Heather, had everything under control.

And by everything, we mean everything.

We learned that Heather, a project manager, maintained Excel spreadsheets covering every detail of the wedding day.

Some of these spreadsheets were created on the return flight home from New York, where Michael had proposed!

Jonathon spent time with the groom, Michael; the groom’s brother, Lee; and the groomsmen, Scott and Blair, who were also getting ready in the house.

Once they were kilted up and looking very smart, Jonathon took Michael and the boys outside for a few pre-ceremony photos on the beautiful grounds of The Parsonage.

What an entrance our beautiful bride made as she walked down the aisle with her proud Dad.

Heather looked stunning in her exquisite wedding dress designed by Liliana Dabic of La Novia.

Her hair, styled in soft curls, had been beautifully pinned in an updo by hairstylist Lauren McMonagle of The Loft Bridal Hair, and her make-up was fabulously soft and glowing, created by makeup artist Jenny Tanner.

Heather and Michael’s Humanist ceremony was probably one of the funniest and most engaging ceremonies we have photographed.

Conducted by Maureen Kettle of Humanist Society Scotland, it was an endearing celebration of their love.

Guests laughed and cried as the celebrant told heartwarming tales about Heather and Michael’s relationship and how they fell in love.

To be precise, Heather and Michael had been together for 3,046 days on their wedding day!

The expansive outside terrace at The Parsonage at Dunmore Park was the ideal location for guests to congratulate our newlyweds and enjoy the champagne reception.

The private grounds and wooded parkland provided the perfect backdrop for group photos and our adorable couple’s more intimate newlywed photos. Being The Parsonage wedding photographer meant lots of great photo opportunities!

Guests enjoyed Luca’s ice cream served from the retro ice cream van.

Our bride and groom’s sweet treat was served in their favourite peanut butter and Jaffa cake flavours, topped with a personalised wafer.

The glamorous Pavilions at The Parsonage hosted the celebratory wedding breakfast and the evening reception.

The Pavilion’s marquee was given a soft pink palette, filled with beautiful fresh flowers by Irene’s Florist and scented with peony blush candles.

Tables were named after some of our happy couple and their dog, Murphy, and their favourite places.

We loved all these special touches that made Heather and Michael’s wedding unique.

Guests went wild as the newlyweds made their grand entrance to the top table.

There were some lovely, heartfelt and poignant words from Heather’s Dad, our beautiful bride and Michael, who needed a little Dutch courage in the form of a Jägerbomb shot!

And last, but by no means least, Michael’s brother, who provided everyone with lots of laughs!

After a delicious wedding breakfast, Heather and Michael greeted all their evening guests.

Guests offered warm congratulations as they hugged and kissed our bride and groom.

Our wonderful day as The Parsonage wedding photographer ended as our newlyweds made their way to the starlit dance floor.

They cut their beautiful three-tiered hexagon-shaped wedding cake and embraced during their first dance as newlyweds.

Thank you for all the fun and laughter.

We had such a great time!

The Parsonage Wedding Photographer 5-Star Reviews

Choose us as The Parsonage wedding photographer; we’ll provide outstanding photos and award-winning service. But don’t just take our word for it:

  • wedding photographer at Dundas Castle: a couple wearing wedding attire gazes into each other's eyes and smiles, standing outdoors with a blurred natural background. The man wears a gray suit and green tie; the woman wears a white fur shoulder wrap.

    We had a great time and felt so comfortable!

    Jonathon and Claire are the loveliest couple… from our very first communication, they made us feel special and were so interested in who we are as people! They tailored everything just for us, and had they not radiated such beauty and kindness, we wouldn’t have even known they were there… and for two people like us who HATE getting photos taken, we had a great time and felt so comfortable!
    We got married on 31st December, and they gave up their own celebrations with their families to help us capture ours…
    We truly hit the jackpot, and wouldn’t ever trust anyone else to capture our special celebrations and moments!
    Please don’t pass up the opportunity on having these two look after your special day! Very trustworthy and fantastic value for money.
