About the Business

A famous photographer once said; "I have to be a portrait photographer, landscape photographer, fashion photographer and photojournalist all within a few hours of a wedding day". To me, photographing a wedding is not just another day at the office. I like to document each event and tell the real story of your wedding day.

I practice photojournalism (also called documentary or reportage photography), which is "capturing" the image, not "creating" it. My objective is to tell the story of the wedding using the camera. I like to set up as few shots as possible, remaining unobtrusive. However, I will usually get in the midst of the fun at some points too. I like to photograph people, emotions, and the details of your wedding day. All you need to do for most of the day is to act naturally and enjoy being the centre of attention.

I would normally cover the following - preparations at the bride's house, the groom and family at the ceremony beforehand, the guests arriving, the bride arriving, discrete shots of the ceremony (if permitted by the minister or registrar), the signing of the register, the couple leaving, group shots of the immediate families and a private moment with just the couple, shots at the reception including guests mingling, the cutting of the cake, the speeches, toasts and first dance. All shot with a little creative flair and an eye for the spontaneous moment.

Pre Wedding Shoots In And Around Glasgow

Pre wedding shoots are becoming very popular. Once you have booked me as your photographer for an additional fee you can have your photos taken at a local park, or even at your venue. This means we get to know each other and have a trial run of shots taken on the day.

John McDermott is one of the top wedding photographers in Glasgow at the moment. You get to keep every high resolution wedding photo, including all edited photos on a DVD with every wedding photography package. Most of the couples who book me say they hate having their photo taken. That's where I come in. On your special day I will put you at ease and make sure you have fun and stay relaxed!

John takes the traditional photos you would expect but also encourages the bride and groom to be themselves. It is not all about posing, but capturing who you are as a couple. This means they can have fun on the day and enjoy themselves.
