Angela and Gary came all the way from Abu Dhabi to be married at Dalhousie castle in Edinburgh . Just a quick preview and one of my favourites from the day. The full gallery is now online along with your album design. More images from this wedding soon !
!
Last Sunday I met up with Eilidh and Gareth who are getting married this April at Carbisdale Castle in Sutherland. Carbisdale is a very unique and beautiful venue which provides the opportunity to hold weddings which run for the whole weekend. The castle is now a youth hostel and can be rented out exclusively for the weekend of a wedding. Endless opportunities for images here both inside and out of the castle.
Here’s a few favourites …
And introducing Archie !
I recently photographed the very beautiful one and a half year old Annabel in her home in Glossop.
It would be difficult not to get great shots of Annabel… just look at those eyes !
And would you believe that ten minutes after we finished the session Annabel was fast asleep for the afternoon.
” Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever..it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything .”
The recent snowfall provided some great opportunities for a bit of landscape photography …
I met with Angela and Gary a while ago to discuss their forthcoming wedding at Dalhousie castle near Edinburgh. Dalhousie is a beautiful venue with a great variety of inside and outside locations for the photography. Looking forward to the wedding in a couple of weeks which will be my first of 2010 !
The very beautiful Reisha married Scott Grupas at Balgonie Castle in fife, a venue which is truly amazing and very atmospheric. The ceremony took place in the castles own chapel which was lit only by candles. An owl delivered the rings to the couple and doves were released after the ceremony.
The meal took place in the grand hall of the castle and Wilde Thyme caters served some of the finest wedding food I have ever seen. A lovely intimate wedding where the entire wedding came over from America for the occasion.
The ringbearer …
This post is really just a goodbye to a business started almost 2 years ago in Ullapool. The Gallery, originally a coffee shop above North west Outdoors in Ullapool was converted to a photographic gallery last year. The images below show the exhibition area going up and significantly the last exhibition in place whilst still owning the Gallery ….The Uist Beachscapes I shot during the summer of 09 .
The Gallery has been successful and the past year has seen photographers such as Iain Cameron , Richard Childs and Iain Roy exhibiting in the Gallery . Angus Bruce has now taken over the Gallery whilst I concentrate full time on my wedding photography and I am looking forward to seeing many more exhibitions in the year to come.
If I had to pick a single image from 2009 that was a favourite it would have to be a photograph shot at The witchery in Edinburgh with Susan and Daniel whose wedding I had photographed the previous day. Its fairly difficult to get permission to shoot at The Witchery but it was definitely worth it ! The rooms are rich and vibrant in colour and so atmospheric. Together with a great couple who loved modelling for me it was hard not to make great images.
As a way of looking back on 2009 and originally inspired by Gwen Bell’s post here ) this post is the best trip of 2009. Gwen Bell suggested writing a series of blog posts on the best of 2009 and gave a few subjects to write on throughout December.
Now December, being December passed far too quickly and I never quite managed do this so have to decided to continue on regardless .
Definitely the best trip I took in 2009 was with a friend of mine Rhiannon Connelly to Venice, a simply amazing and inspiring city . The reason was to simply to take photographs. Having just acquired my brand new D700 at the time made it was a great opportunity to test out the new camera and its high iso capabilities. It did not disappoint … here’s a shot taken at night where it was basically pitch black apart from the highlights. The camera managed to record more than I could actually see . This was shot obviously without flash at 5000 iso , f2.8 handheld and its a pretty decent image considering. Definitely sold on the new camera !
I took a variety of images but here are two that sum up the visit to Venice
