Connor McEwan Photography - Lanark

Laura D'All

It was such a pleasure to have Connor photograph our wedding. He is so committed and passionate about wedding photography and his expertise was obvious from our first meeting via Zoom. He wants to know every little detail of the day, the things we liked and disliked about photos of ourselves and the way he likes to photograph aligned with our vision for the day perfectly. His photography was exactly what my husband and I were looking for to capture our day and we eagerly looked forward to seeing our photos.

Connor was with us from early in the stages of wedding prep right until a good hour or so after our first dance. He captured every single aspect of our day and has made our memories even more valuable. He made sure we had everything we needed throughout the day and worked as a part of the wedding team, always on hand to help out with even more than a good photo op. He helped the day run smoothly just as much as the venue did. I really appreciated how relaxed Connor made my husband and I feel; as a pair of very camera shy individuals, the photographs fit our personalities beautifully.

We also very much appreciated Connor’s enthusiasm for “getting a good shot” for our wedding. Having not photographed the venue before, he made an effort to visit before the big day while he was in the area and additionally went scouting for more spots around the venue for a bit of variety in our couple portraits.

Our preview gallery got us so excited for the full gallery and we were not disappointed. My husband and I absolutely adore the photographs and have been sharing little moments from our day with loved ones ever since the gallery arrived. The photographs are such high quality and we are so pleased with the final product!

We could not have asked for a better photographer for our big day than Connor!

Connor was truly amazing! He is extremely passionate about his work; so inconspicuous and professional, yet literally running back and forth to get the perfect shot. He was somehow seemingly everywhere, all at the same time, but we never actually noticed him.
Connor really went above and beyond for us; he arrived on site earlier than expected and stayed with us late into the night, capturing some of our best moments! He was also very willing and technically able to cater to our requests. Every worry we had, big or small, he mitigated while making sure to account for all our wishes.
We originally went into the photographer selection thinking that wedding photos were more of a requirement, rather than something we actively wanted; neither my partner nor I would describe ourselves as photogenic or as people who like having their photos taken. So, we asked Connor to take candid photos, in addition to the standard, staged ones, in the hope that some of those would be good. He really blew our minds with both the number and quality of the shots and captured so many brilliant moments we weren’t even aware of on the day.
Now, we look back at our photos fondly and proudly, and can really re-live our day, rather than just filing them away in the drawer, as we usually do with our pictures, because there is always something “wrong” with them. We are proud to display our wedding photos, and actually, some of our favourite ones turned out to be the staged ones, as Connor somehow made us both feel really comfortable in front of the camera, made us laugh, and got amazing shots. He “clicked” with our guests too and it felt like having a really close friend there, rather than a contractor; he fit in perfectly.
Connor was just so easy to work with and we cannot recommend him enough!

Connor and his assistant fit in PERFECTLY on the day. He made us (particularly me) feel so at ease throughout the entire day and he fit in so well with the bride and groom party. In the run up he was communicative, open to ideas and always responds quickly. We got our first sneak peek of photos on the night which was incredible and a second preview a few days later. Everyone at the wedding complimented how well the photographer did. 10/10

Cannot recommend Connor enough! He not only captured every single detail of the day, but he also captured fantastic photos of all of our friends and family in the most fun, candid way - our wedding gallery is full to the brim with amazing memories of everyone laughing and having fun. He made such a big effort to get to know us and what we were looking for before the big day, and made everyone feel at ease from the beginning. Incredibly professional photos, but with the most personable, laid back approach.

We absolutely loved having Connor as our wedding photographer! He made us feel so at ease and comfortable when we were getting our formal photos done and he made sure to catch up with us before the wedding so he understood the vibe we were looking for. From arriving in the morning to take photos of the bridal party getting ready (and joining in with our singing and dancing!) to staying late in the evening to capture the party in full swing - everyone praised Connor for his friendly and outgoing attitude. We loved being able to share our special day with Connor and would 100% recommend to anyone who is looking for a professional, fun and friendly photographer. Thanks so much again Connor - we really appreciate it!

From the moment we met Connor we felt confident that we had made the right choice and that he was going to add something special to our wedding day. Not only is he an amazing photographer but he is also one of the nicest guys you could meet. Prior to the big day he even went to the trouble of popping in to see us to check out the venue - we were getting married in our garden so not a venue he was familiar with. He even brought dog treats with him and took some gorgeous shots our our beloved doodle! When he arrived on the big day he set about capturing the most amazing shots from hair and make up though to the ceremony, drinks, meal, speeches and fun and dancing into the evening. Of course there were the usual family shots and poses but Connor blended in and captured the most outstanding moments of our special day, taking shots we were not even aware of and leaving us with a very special pictorial reminder of a truly wonderful day. He was also happy to oblige if any guests asked for specific shots to be taken and we have had the most amazing feedback from everyone who attended about how great he was. Thank you Connor for making our special day even more special.

Excellent photographer, manages to make epic shots out of little. Great use of colour and style. Very personable person, Connor's enthusiasm for our special day made us feel very well looked after.

Connor was the photographer at our wedding in December and he exceeded our expectations in every way. He is a friendly and charismatic person, creative and original. We enjoyed the time we spent with Connor and our wedding photos are incredible.
