Beach Wedding Thailand

John & Fis relaxed Thailand beach wedding.

Johnny & Fi have spent their time together travelling the world going on adventures, so when it came to planning their wedding it didn’t feel natural to stay in Scotland. They had come across on Chaweng Beach when they went travelling around Thailand. When looking at venues in Scotland nothing compared to this paradise. After checking with family to make sure the key members would make the trip they booked their Thailand beach wedding day for the 9th of April on Koh Samui.

Fi has always had a chic style and Johnny has preffered simple and stylish designs so The Library encorporated all of this and suited their relaxed attitudes. The pair wanted to make a whole holiday out of the trip which covered a week in Bangkok partying and then onto the Island of Koh Samui for some relaxing beach time and the wedding.The grooms best men where his brothers and the brides best friend and bridesmaid flew over for the trip too. Teamed with family it made for a beautiful relaxed personal wedding. With unique touches such as the grooms own playlist which had gone to a lot of thought to have something different. Johnny is a Bafta nominated film director so is passionate about creating a mood and vibe to events.

The bride walked down the isle to Fly me to the Moon by Bobby Womack, matched with her massive smile it made for a stunning entrance. They said their Vows under a chandelier in the garden followed by their wedding meal and speeches under the stars on the beach.

The following week was Songkran in Thailand which is the Thai new year and the whole country engages in a massive waterfight. The newly weds enjoyed this in the streets of koh tao before returning back to the uk. There have been so many personal touches to this gorgeous wedding which despite being on the other side of the world the couple involved their families Fis ring was chosen in Newcastle where her beloved gran lives so that she could be involved. A video of the grandparents was put together by the best men for the couple to view before dinner was served. One of the most beautiful and personal weddings I have had the honour of photographing and I love that they followed their dreams in booking a Thailand beach wedding which reflected them so well as a couple and their love for travel. Congratulations John & Fi on your next chapter and many more adventures to come.If you are having a destination wedding and want to book me and have any questions then just get in touch.

Morning Prep At Loch Green House Hotel

From the very beginning of the morning, Kyla was absolutely buzzing. Her energy was infectious as she shouted “Happy my wedding day!”, barely able to sit still and desperate to get into her dress. More than anything, she couldn’t wait to see her beloved dad, George, and share that moment together.

Kyla looked incredible in her gown from Ivory Pinks Bridal, glowing with happiness from the inside out. Her excitement was contagious , the kind that fills a room and makes everyone smile. 

As a school teacher, Kyla has the warmest energy, and it was clear how loved she is by those around her. She shares a close bond with her sister, and together with Fraser, they’re proud dog parents to Watson, who definitely got a few mentions throughout the day.
Fraser spent the morning with his groomsmen in great spirits, including one who had flown all the way from Australia to be there. It set the tone for the day: relaxed, full of laughter, and rooted in genuine friendships.

There was a deep emotional thread running through the day. Kyla’s mum, Shiela, sadly passed away in 2022, and her presence was felt in so many quiet, meaningful ways. This wedding wasn’t just a celebration, it was a hugely important moment for Kyla and her family, full of love, remembrance, and pride.

An Unforgettable Party At Lochgreen House Hotel

With We Are Tartan keeping the dancefloor packed and Shades of Sax bringing the saxophone energy, the evening celebrations were next level. Euan could create a party in an empty room! He doesn’t stop smiling and bringing the energy, throw in the fact he is just a lovely guy, he makes you feel like you are in a club in ibiza with constant good music and dancing. From emotional moments to absolute dancefloor chaos, the atmosphere was incredible.

Kyla and Fraser’s wedding was joyful, heartfelt, and full of life , an absolute privilege to photograph.

work with me

I'm a fine art photographer for the adventurous and the romantic, I am based in Glasgow in Scotland. I have been described as an 'artistic' photographer by others and this probably sums up my work quite well. I have had my work featured on Vogue Italia, We Fell in Love, My lovely Scottish Wedding, US Blog Ruffled Wedding Blog and many more..

About me

let's connect

Hello There! Thanks For Stopping By. I Am Roma

I like old movies and new friends. I'm a hopeless romantic, my favourite movies are Gone with the Wind and pretty much most films directed by Baz Luhrmann. I was brought up on alot of Disney which is most likely where my happily ever after streak has grown from! I am a huge animal lover and have an unhealthy obsession with anything pirate themed and Audrey Hepburn.

FAQS

How Far In Advance Should We Book?


Since I take on a limited number of weddings per year, no more than 25, I encourage couples to book as early as possible to secure their date. Most couples book 12–18 months ahead, but if your wedding is sooner, still get in touch I sometimes have space for last-minute dates.

Do You Travel Outside Glasgow?

Yes, I photograph weddings across Scotland (and beyond). Travel fees apply for longer distances, but I’ll always be clear about these upfront. I am frequently up in the highlands for weddings and also travel down to the lake district aswell.

Do You Shoot Elopements As Well As Full Weddings?

Absolutely. Elopements are some of my favourites, full of emotion, freedom and atmosphere. Plus I do love getting outdoors in amongst the stunning scenery and dodging the midges.

How Many Images Will We Receive?

For a full day, expect around 600–800 carefully edited images all in my signature romantic style, in both colour and black and white. 

What Is Your Editing Style?

Happy, romantic, fun and light just as your day should be.

I don’t follow photography trends as I love to create photographs that are timeless, classic and romantic. So that in 10 years time you will still look back and love them without them looking dated.  

I find the couples who book me have similar traits to me. Chilled with a good sense of humor. Who adore their families and want this love captured. 

What If It Rains On Your Wedding Day?

Scotland’s weather can be unpredictable, but it always adds character. I’ll guide you to make the most of the light and conditions, rain often brings the most atmospheric images! We can have fun and go full on notebook vibes! You cant control the weather but you can control how you behave towards it on your day, instead of being sad that you didn’t get full on sunshine, embrace the fact all your guests will stay inside together and party hard! 

How Long Does It Take To Receive Our Photos?

You’ll get a small preview within 48 hours, and your full gallery within 6–8 weeks. 

What’s Included In Your Full-Day Coverage?

From morning prep to at least three dances into the evening (or until the dance floor gets really wild!), I am basically yours for the day. 

What If We Want Video Or Extra Coverage?

There’s a package (Blue Moon Rose) that includes a highlight film. Also, you can add a second shooter, or extra hours, or special print or album options.

Can We Order Albums Or Prints?

Yes, and I encourage it. There’s nothing like seeing your story beautifully printed , something to pass down and relive for years. I hate the photos hidden on hard drives so include 15 complimentary prints in my full day packages. 

Can We Book An Engagement Shoot To Be Included In Our Wedding Photography Package?

Absolutely, this is a great idea as it means you get to have a practice before the big day and instead of spending months worrying about having your photos taken, you will see how easy and relaxed the whole process is, plus it means we won’t feel like strangers by the time the wedding comes.

I specialize in natural, candid photography so nothing is too posed. Just get not touch and we can chat about what package would suit you best.

Is It Possible To Hire A Wedding Photographer In Glasgow Who Also Does Videography?

Yes, I shoot hybrid so that means I not only capture your photos but also capture snippets of video too and edit this into a highlight reel. This package is ideal for couples who hate being center stage as its only me and you won’t notice me taking video aswell.
