This portrait of Fheirn was taken at her mum's house, just before she left to get married. I typically have time with the bride before the day begins — time to create portraits, work the light, get something special. On this occasion I had almost none. So I worked with what was there. Available light. A staircase. A bride about to walk into the biggest moment of her life. With just a little direction I managed to get these portraits before her father arrived — and the moment he walked through that door, I put the camera down and just watched. What happened next was pure documentary. He hadn't seen his daughter yet. I was completely unaware it was coming. I just stayed ready — and caught every moment as it unfolded naturally between a father and his daughter, minutes before she got married. It's worth saying — Fheirn's father was the person who recommended me as their wedding photographer. That trust means everything, and moments like this are exactly why I take that responsibility seriously. Fheirn and her partner were married at Roodlea Barn, one of Ayrshire's most beautiful and intimate wedding venues. Their day was brought together by an incredible team of suppliers:
