Citation wedding venue, Glasgow

Citation in Glasgow’s Merchant City holds its history well. Big windows. Sandstone pillars. Light that knows where to land. It’s one of those Glasgow wedding venues that oozes celebration, even before anything begins.

Harley and Zac stepped inside Citation and it felt like theirs. A wedding venue with warmth and weight; one which holds meaning and lets the day unfurl around it.

Capturing what matters

I photograph weddings like Harley and Zac’s who boast a relationship that is steady, real and full of warmth that moves in waves.

A look held. A breath drawn. The seconds that happen between everything else. That's where I'm poised.

Their love story

We met in a bar in St. Kilda, Melbourne where we were both living. We moved home and after 5 years on a holidays, he proposed in Capri on a boat - I had the biggest shock of my life.

Engaged August 2022 and married May 2023, our biggest thing was having our grandparents there on the day, so we wanted it as soon as possible as they were poorly.

Everyone made it and it was just the best day.
