Pippa & Jonathan

Pippa and Jonathan live in Melbourne and travelled with a group of friends and family back to Pippa's home city of Edinburgh for their wedding.

First off I met the Boys at Calton Hill for a few shots of Jonathan and his Groomsmen Reece, Tim and Ed. The weather was great and the boys were very cooperative with every daft idea I came up with!

Calton Hill has a great view back down Princes Street and Edinburgh's famous spires.

On top of Calton Hill are a number of monuments. Edinburgh was referred to as "The Athens of The North" due to its academic stature and one man decided to take this to an extreme and build the Parthenon on Edinburgh's skyline. So I got the guys to climb up for a photo! Not easy when you've never worn the kilt before so a good team effort.

Once up there we got several good shots of which this is one of my favourites.

...and so on to the house for the rest of the day. Pippa's family home is a beautiful house with a very well kept garden that was ideal for the wedding.

Here's Jake, Pippa and Jonathan's wee lad. He was very well behaved all day and looked good in his kilt outfit too.

Pippa doesn't look very nervous beforehand, and everything was so well organised that there was no reason to be worried.

During the humanist ceremony, Jonathan's sisters Zeta and Hannah, happily gave their approval of the marriage.

Everyone was smiling all the way through the ceremony; the sun shone, there was beautiful singing and a very happy couple.

Jake sat and played with the confetti on the grass - what a contented lad - he's a grand wee boy.

Some last-minute practice for the Scottish country dancing coming up later in the evening.

What a great day. The weather was fantastic, the venue was perfect and everyone was friendly and happy. I was delighted to be there and really enjoyed the day.

Congratulations to Pippa and Jonathan and thanks to you both and all your family and friends for being so welcoming and helpful to me on the day.
