Gary Bonar Photography

Gary is absolutely fantastic! I came across Gary after seeing one picture from a previous wedding at our venue and thought I need this photographer! And he didn’t disappoint! He is the epitome of professional but also feels like you’ve got your best mate taking photos of you. He made us feel so comfortable and we trusted his artistic flare with some of the ideas for photos and the results were fantastic! He captured our day so perfectly and looking through the photos really brings the emotions of the day back! I can’t thank you enough! Thank you so much!! Philippa x

Absolutely brilliant, Gary was absolutely fantastic, and the perfect photographer for our wedding. He made us feel extremely comfortable, as if he was another guest at our wedding. His photos turned out amazing, I honestly can’t recommend enough, we are so glad we booked him and you should to!

What can I say? Gary was at our wedding on 23/11/24, and he was fantastic! He brought the kind of energy that I needed for my day, and his humour and personality put me at ease. We had snow on our wedding morning which was making me feel a bit anxious, but not even a broken wiper blade couldn’t stop Gary. Gary was fantastic at sneaking me about the hotel for a sneak peek at our ceremony room! It was like some military operation. I found out afterwards that Gary was out shovelling snow before our guests arrived! Find another photographer who will do that! On the day, I forgot Gary was there. He blended in perfectly and got the most amazing shots. I didn't expect so many pictures back the next day, but we did. I will definitely be using Gary again in the future. Thank you for all your hard work Gary! Emma & Steven x

I had the pleasure of having Gary as my wedding photographer 20/03/25. I have received my wedding photos back only 10 days later and they have honestly blown me away more than I could have ever wished for he has captured our day so perfectly! The communication is 5 start he’s always quick to respond. On the day he was fantastic really kept us calm and relaxed. Il be honest I was almost dreading the picture part because I know it’s usually lengthy and time missed with your guests but Gary made it so fun and relaxing getting our pictures done the banter and jokes were hilarious! Gary even helped me get my shoes and necklace on as I wanted to keep my dress reveal a surprise for everyone! I will never stop recommending him he truly is fantastic! Any couple who’s lucky to have gary capture their day is onto a winner!

We were very lucky to have Gary as part of our wedding day! Not only was he able to capture the day incredibly, he is an absolute legend, making us feel at ease and becoming a great friend. All of our guests commented on how great he was and he was very patient in accommodating their requests. We cannot thank Gary enough and would highly recommend to anyone. The only challenge is that there are so many amazing photos its a struggle to narrow them down! Thank you so much - Calum and Kirsty x

We couldn’t be happier to have chosen Gary as our wedding photographer. We booked Gary two years before our wedding and his communication within those two years was fantastic - friendly, professional, approachable and organised! We clicked with Gary at our initial meeting and from then he made us feel so at ease. Gary really helped settled our wedding morning nerves with his great sense of humour. He worked so well with our other suppliers and even helped the groom and groomsmen with their kilts and button hole flowers. He helped ensure the morning ran smoothly. Our wedding party, as well as our guests, commented on Gary’s bubbly personality, how much he became part of our day and how he fit in perfectly as if he was another guest. Gary asked us to make a list of people we wanted photos with on the day, which he did, but he also captured lots of natural snapshots of us and our guests throughout the day. He was very quick in sending our photos over after our day and every single photo was amazing! We married at Lochgreen in Troon and Gary captured some outstanding photos of us at the beach. It took us a while to choose our favourite photos to put into our album but Gary was very patient with us. We have now received our album and we are absolutely delighted with it. Gary has captured our day so beautifully! We couldn’t recommend Gary enough. An amazing photographer and a genuinely great guy. Thank you so much for all your work, Gary! We hope to be working with you again soon for our newborn shoot!

As soon as we got engaged we knew we wanted Gary to photograph our wedding…3 years on and Gary brought our wedding vision to life. Gary was much more than a photographer, he was the director of our day. Gary created structure/flow on our day that ensured everything ran smoothly and on time. He checked in with both parties hours before the wedding started which was great in calming our nerves and having everyone in a barrel of laughs. We were so happy to spend so much of our day with Gary as he just felt like a wedding guest. He was truly one of our friends for the day and interacted with all of our guests. Everyone spoke so highly of Gary and his amazing work. Gary understood our vision as had previously photographed weddings at the Mar Hall and so he created the most perfect photo set-ups which incorporated the Mar Halls stunning features and grounds. Gary would stop at nothing to get the most perfect angles and ensured we weren’t spending a lot of time away from our guests. We received our photos back within 2/3 weeks of our wedding and were completely obsessed with how well Gary had done to capture every single intimate memory from our wedding day. We are so thankful for always having these pictures to look back on. We just received our photo albums and the quality of the photos and pages is unmatched. For anyone considering booking Gary for their wedding day, he was worth every single penny. Thank you Gary for being one of the most genuine and down to earth people we’ve ever met. Your passion and expertise is evident in your amazing work!! Mitchell and Erika Taylor x
