Wedding Date on Sep 24, 2019

How did you meet? We were flatmates at university in our first year in Sep 2004. We got together a couple of months after meeting and have been together ever since. A bit about you, what do you do, how do you spend your time? What’s important in life? We're wedding photographers, which pretty much takes over everything, so we spend most of our time working.. but we do love what we do. When we're not working, we are both big food lovers, particularly our street food. We both ride motorbikes, enjoy traveling and have two cats, Maowi and Bruce, who we both love to bits. We are both really into our films and pop culture. Shazia loves her music, as well as Ru Paul's drag race and a lot of alternative content. Tell us about the proposal: It was in Amsterdam at the botanical gardens. We'd arrived in Amsterdam (where we've been many times before) and went for our usual cone of chips. Then we went to visit a cat barge (basically a cat shelter on a barge) before going for some food then heading to the gardens. The venue(s) or location, why this place above anywhere else? The Isle of Skye. We wanted somewhere different than where we normally photograph and somewhere that would look great in photographs. We talked about Iceland but the cost was problematic, whereas Skye offered a great balance of cost and beauty. We both love Scotland and the Scottish culture, so it's all worked out perfectly. In Newcastle, we picked somewhere we'd never photographed at before. Plus it a fantastic venue and a really cool place visually.
