angus barn wedding photographer – meghan & watts

A quick post and run today as wedding season is in full swing and things are really busy around here! However, I really didn’t want to pass up the chance to post some images Meghan & Watts’ Angus Barn wedding.

You might remember Meghan & Watts from their engagement session last year, which we photographed at Watt’s family home. Well, we started the day at the same venue where the bride and groom were getting ready with their respective entourages before heading over to the Pavilion at Angus Barn for the ceremony and reception.

Everything throughout the day ran really smoothly thanks to the efforts of Catherine and her team with La Fête. As you can see, we were blessed with glorious weather and great light pretty much all day long. Special shout-out also to DJ Randy with Bunn DJ Co for a fab night and a full dance floor.

This was, quite simply, a beautiful day spent photographing lovely people surrounded by their friends and family. The warmth and love was all around and it was a pleasure to be a part of it all. It really was a joy to be there documenting it all!

Warm congrats and much love to Meghan & Watts as they start out on their married life together!

Here are just a few of my faves from Meghan & Watts’ day.
