Friday 18th March at Stockbridge Primary School. I did a marathon portrait session for a number of families to raise funds for the playground. The kids were great with only a couple of refusals (probably didn’t like the look of me) and I had a couple of P7 helpers who were super keen assistants (thanks [...]

You can plan most things for a wedding with a good degree of certainty but you can’t know in advance what the weather will do. Providing your wedding ceremony and reception venue are indoors the weather shouldn’t provide that many problems – but indoor wedding photography can be restrictive and not representative of the day.

My wedding photography services are available to couples traveling to Scotland for their destination wedding. There are rules every couple should follow when looking for a photographer they will not meet either until very shortly before their wedding or on the wedding day itself. Ideally when you and your partner are organising your wedding you [...]

In December last year I was delighted to be photographing the wedding of Anna and Fraser in a very cold and snowy Edinburgh. The reception was held in The Signet Library. I have to say that the Signet Library is a pretty stunning venue; breathtaking in fact – surely one of Scotland’s hidden gems. I [...]

OK it’s November but what a beautiful morning! As I head up to the George Hotel it’s crisp, clear and sunny. The trees still wear their autumnal colours and the pavements are carpeted in gold, bronze, auburn and yellow. When I met the girls in the hotel there was a buzz of excitement and anticipation. [...]

Anna & Fraser

We headed off to Hopetoun House for Anna and Fraser’s pre-wedding shoot. What an impressive sight to behold! No not Fraser, a stunning, imposing building in a sweeping estate. Courtyards, fountains, staircases, colonnades. Incredible. I wasn’t so sure about the “Tiger Room” and I’m sure you can guess who lives (lived) there. It’ll be a [...]

Neil & Elizabeth

I photographed Neil and Elizabeth’s re-commitment ceremony in two amazing locations; The Witchery and Edinburgh Castle. The rooms in Witchery are incredibly plush and decorative and having lovely window light adds to the atmosphere of the place; great for photographing the detail of the day. Edinburgh Castle I’m sure we all know but a fabulous [...]

Jo & Graeme

I did a pre-wedding shoot with Jo and Graeme around the Stockbridge area – there are lots of good locations here and it’s perfect for this. There are lots of cafe’s too so that always helps! Like a lot of couples I think the guys were a wee bit apprehensive but once we got going [...]

Paul & Nichola

I photographed Paul and Nichola’s wedding at the start of September. I met this couple through a recommendation so it’s always nice to extend the network (and to be recommended of course!). The wedding was set in the Marine Hotel in North Berwick and Paul and Nichola bravely intended to be wed out on the [...]
