Booked up until September

My diary is filling up for the rest of the year and with an already large pile of editing already on my desk I’m now fully booked up until September.

My most recent wedding booking is confirmed and I’m excited to be heading back to the USA to shoot the wedding of Jennifer and Andrew in Colorado in May!

Along with jobs in London, Scotland, Laos and Singapore it’s going to be a busy month!

I may have space to fit in a few child portrait session on weekdays but my dates are limited.

If you’d like to enquire about projects for after September please do get in touch – I’d love to hear from you.

Cortes House Wedding – David and Chrissy

I was in Aberdeen at the end of last week for a few days, first for the Girls Night In wedding exhibition with the Scottish Wedding Directory and then for the wedding of David and Chrissy at Cortes House on Saturday.

David and Chrissy chose to have a small intimate wedding with only 20 immediate family and some friends from the RAF where they both serve. Being a naturally beautiful venue Cortes made for a very laid back event!

Congrats David and Chrissy – thanks for letting me share the day with you both, and enjoy your honeymoon!

Diana and Mark – A Dunkeld Wedding

I was shooting the wedding of Mark and Diana on Saturday up in Dunkeld, in-between working on an editorial assignment in Glasgow – it’s been a busy week!

Mark and Diana’s wedding was another very laid back affair, with approx 50 friends and family joining them for the wedding ceremony in Dunkeld Cathedral and then a weekend party over in the stunning Eastwood House down by the banks of the river.

I first met Mark and Diana briefly when they were guests at the wedding of their friends Richard and Kelly who were married down in Derbyshire last year and who had also booked me to shoot their wedding. It’s especially satisfying to be asked to shoot a wedding for friends of past clients and great to see them again too.

We made good use of the beautiful surroundings around Dunkeld to work in some of the Landscape into the shots, it’s going to be a fun edit!

Ian and Christine – A Meldrum House Wedding

I was back in Aberdeenshire today for the fantastic wedding of Ian and Christine at Meldrum House.

Ian and Christine chose to have their whole wedding day at Meldrum with both their ceremony in the beautiful hotel and the reception in the permanent marquee in the grounds of the Hotel. I love shooting Marquee weddings.

It was a very relaxed day, and was particularly enjoyable for me to see some familiar faces as Ian and Christine had first discovered my work when I had shot for friends of theirs, Leanne and Rory a few years ago.

Scottish Winter Wedding – Jordan and Julie

I’m back in Aberdeenshire for my next wedding tomorrow. Ian and Christine are getting married at Meldrum House and I’m looking forward to being there to share the day with them, their family and friends.

I travelled through to Aberdeen earlier to make sure I’m here in plenty of time, and have spent some of the day editing my last wedding, also in Aberdeenshire of Julie and Jordan two weeks ago. Hopefully the weather is a little warmer tomorrow!

I have two spaces left in my wedding diary for this year, so if you are still planning, it isn’t too late to get in touch!

Stornoway Town Hall Wedding Fair

Stornoway Town Hall are planning their first wedding fair to be held on March 14th, and I’ll be exhibiting there on my first trip to Lewis of the year.

The fair is a charity fundraiser, with monies raised from the event going to support 3 charities on the island which are:

  • Lewis & Harris Breast Cancer Support Group
  • Hebridean Men’s Cancer Support Group
  • Action for Children Stornoway

As well as being a great opportunity to meet suppliers for your wedding planning, there will also be a fashion show and other events on the day. Ticket costs also cover a buffet lunch, tea and cakes + mocktails. You can order tickets through Third Sector Hebrides.

 

Eoropie Beach Engagement Session

Mairi and Tim’s Bernera Beach Wedding

I won’t be offering portrait sessions on this trip over due to availability (and waiting until the weather improves) but I’d be happy to advise on availability for upcoming holiday dates for both my portrait and wedding work.

 

I’ll also be showcasing some of my previous wedding work during the show from weddings either on the island, or off it. I should have some limited availability to meet with prospective couples on the evening of the 13th March also, should you want to get booked in before others take the available dates!

 

You can view some of my previous Lewis Portrait work here, or some of my previous Wedding content here.

 

Tickets for the show are available from Third Sector Hebrides – I look forward to meeting you there!
