Adam + Ian's Kinkell Byre Wedding | Barn Wedding, Fife, Scotland.

Matt and I moved to Fife 8 years ago now and, after 8 years in Edinburgh, it was a bit of a homecoming for me. I'd started school in Fife, in Dalgety Bay, when I was really little, prior to my Dad's work moving us back towards family on the West coast, and found myself, over the years, naturally gravitating back.

We bought our first home in rural Fife, not far from St Andrews, in summer 2018, and have been renovating our 1970s bungalow into a cosy country cottage ever since. I often find myself pausing to take in just how fortunate I feel to live in such a beautiful part of the world. Fife really does have so much beauty and so many things to offer.

One of which is that it's filled with amazing wedding venues and that every location I meet families and couples in, for portrait shoots, involves the most beautiful, scenic countryside or coastal commute.

One thing Fife, and the nearby areas, are exceptionally good for are Barn Wedding Venues and Kinkell Byre has long been a favourite of mine, so when Adam & Ian got in touch to ask if I'd come along and shoot their wedding day there, I was thrilled to be able to say yes. I'd shot there a couple of times before and I always loved how different it could look for each couple. It's a bit of a blank canvas venue, so you can make your mark and it offers some really special lighting touches and large spaces for both large and lively weddings and your more intimate, smaller affair.

On Adam & Ian's wedding day, the sun was splitting the trees and with Kinkell's amazing views out over the North Sea, coupled with its proximity to the wonderful ancient town of St Andrews, it was a truly beautiful scene. Adam & Ian did not disappoint in how they utilised the space and styled their day, either, it was so beautiful, but at the heart of it all, as always, was the most meaningful and significant purpose.

It was a real privilege to be invited along to capture their stunning wedding day at Kinkell Byre, an absolute joy from start to finish. Here's how it all came together...

Thanks so much, again, to Adam & Ian, for inviting me in to capture their beautiful day. It was such a joy.

If you're on the lookout for a rustic wedding venue in Scotland that allows enough room to accommodate any precautionary measures that may be in place for the next wee while, due to the current impact of Covid-19, Kinkell Byre is most definitely a great option to consider. It would be, under any circumstances, but the space is amazing and lends itself well to both small gatherings and large alike.
