Joanne and Lee - Moorpark House Hotel

Joanne and Lee had a gorgeous summer wedding day at Moorpark House Hotel. Their bridal party colours matched the clear blue sky that created the perfect backdrop to the Manor house, they couldn't have chosen a better day for a wedding. Their guests took the opportunity to enjoy the sunshine while we went about our work.

There are many lovely photos from Lee and Joannes day but I just had to share this first photo with you, that not only shows off how stunning Joanne and Lee looked on their special day, but also shows their fabulous wedding car and a beautiful venue. The flower girls and page boy standing on the side, were like the icing on a cake for this photograph...aren't they just so cute!

Joanne and Lee, I hope that you enjoy these 2 taster images of your day.

Karen and Jon - Burnhouse

Karen looked stuning in her classical style wedding dress made of soft flowing satin that complimented her own character and grace, leaving everyone with no doubt that she was the Princess of her day. Jon too, was very smart in his full highland dress and plaid.

Both Karen and Jon really seemed to enjoy their day at Burnhouse immensely and made the most of the time that we had for photographs. The weather, although threatened rain most of the day, was kind to us, allowing us to take most of our photographs outside. Jon and Karen, we hope we contributed to making your small intimate wedding day a truly memorable occassion. 

Enjoy these 2 taster images from your day.

Sally and Richard, Glenapp Castle, July 2011

Glenapp Castle has been awarded the most romantic hotel of the year by the Scottish Hotel Awards 2011, and many other prestigous awards including Hotel of the Year. So imagine how delighted I was to photograph a wedding there for Sally and Richard on Wednesday. They had travelled all the way from Australia for a fairytale wedding, and I have to say it was spectacular. The shone shone on the best day of the year so far and the castle was just so romantic, and set in acres and acres of the most immaculate grounds. Even in bright sunlight photographing such a lovely couple in such splendid surroundings was just a pleasure. John Orr, the castle manager, and all his staff, looked after us very well and we captured some beautiful images for Sally and Richard. If you want a perfect castle setting for a truly memorable wedding, Glenapp Castle is undoubtedly a place you should seriously consider.

So busy, and so sorry for no updates




Well, since Kimberley's wedding I have been so busy that I have completely neglected my blog. Weddings are my main business, and I so love making brides happy, but there are other aspects to my photography and video business too. In the last month or so I have filmed John and Julies wedding, shot a musical production for the Johnstone Phoenix Theatre Group which was fabulous, I have video recorded an industrial incident, undertaken personal development training with other fellow photographers, did a fabulous cherish the dress session (thank you Emma, Laura and Bailey the golden retriever!), undertaken some great portrait sessions and I have had a fabulous break in the Outer Hebrides where I spent most of my time ... well ... taking photographs!

The landscapes were gorgeous and were the main subject of my photography but I took one or two of my dog Cassie as well!





When I got back from the islands I had yet more training with Trevor and Faye Yerbury, fantastic photographers with a real sense of vision and style. We spent a beautiful day on Sunday out in the country photographing our model, Lotto.

I am now getting ready for another busy spell, with some exciting venues and wedding couples in the next few weeks. Please enjoy this selection of... just for a change ... not wedding images.
