Another really lovely wedding at Achnagairn house, near Beauly in the Highlands. I am always delighted to shoot at Achnagairn house and Joan and Neil’s wedding certainly didn’t disappoint. A special mention to a couple of great suppliers on the day. Angela Stewart flowers provided the event styling and Lockhart city caterers did a great job with catering.

Janey and duncan came over from the Isle of Lewis to be married in Inverness with their reception held at Achangairn House by Beauly. Stormy weather made it difficult for many guests travel plans but despite this the wedding went perfectly and we even managed to do all the photographs outside.
Janey made a very beautiful bride and you were both a pleasure to photograph…. Wishing you all the happiness for your future together ..

Averils Day after shoot

I recently went back to Achnagairn House with Averil, who’s wedding I photographed last summer. So far the wedding has been featured in No.1 for weddings magazine as well as a front cover in the press and Journals wedding magazine. Hardly surprising really given that Averil made such a stunning bride and chose an amazing dress for her wedding day. I recently blogged some of the veil shots I did on this shoot but there’s plenty more. If you are looking for a really unique and atmospheric venue for your wedding Achnagairn House is definitely worth considering .. definitely my favourite local venue.

Veils shots at Achnagairn … inspired by Beckstead

I shot Averil and angus’s wedding at Achnagairn House back in July and recently went back to the house to shoot some more images with Averil. With a gorgeous bride in a really original dress and a fab venue like Achnagairn its hard not to get nice images. During the shoot I shot some images which were definitely inspired by photographer David Beckstead. David is totally unique photographer and has an artistic flair like I have never seen before as well as seemingly endless desire to share and teach others. He recently ran a veil competition online and this is how he described it

” I love veils!! Man they add another dynamic to compositions! You can throw them in the air, spin with them, and create an abstract image shooting through them…it goes on and on. I buy 50 foot tooling with different colors to play with. They can add motion to a static composition. I love the liquid feel of veils flying in the wind! I bring a ton of cool veils to my model shoots!”

So heres my contribution to interesting veil shots !
