S&D had a tiny registry office wedding at Marischal College which they opted not to have photographed. In fact, they weren't sure if they wanted any photos of their wedding day, but eventually decided it was too important an occasion to rely on relatives' phone snaps. They arranged to meet me for private couple photos at Duthie Park Winter Gardens after their ceremony, and all three of us were very glad they did!

You can't tell from these photos, but S&D were nervous about being stiff and uncomfortable in front of the camera. With a whole hour to play with, we took things at a very leisurely pace, strolling around the gardens, looking at the plants, and stopping every now and then for a few photos. Don't they look like complete naturals?

S&D said: 
"We had such a great experience with Sarah. She made us feel comfortable for a couple who don’t feel comfortable in front of the camera and let things flow very naturally which helped a lot!
"We are beyond happy with how the photos turned out and will treasure these memories forever."
