Claire & Stephen were the lucky winners of my Glasgow Girls Wedding Fayre 'Pre-Wed Shoot' competition. It took us a while to get a date in the diary but we were so lucky with the day we decided on. After weeks of rain, finally bright skies appeared and we spent an afternoon at Glasgow University and Kelvingrove Park in the glorious winter sun. Full blog post soon. x
engagements and couples
{ m e r r y c h r i s t m a s }
Just a little post to say have a wonderful xmas peeps. I hope you have loads of fun & frolics over the festivities and santa is good to you all.
I'm taking a much needed break over the next couple of weeks where I plan to mostly have my head in a box of chocolates and my hand round a glass of bailey's but I will be posting a couple of more blog posts before big ben strikes midnight on the 31st and catapults us into 2012... so keep (a drunken!) eye out for them.
Have a good one. x
Cara & Phil...Glasgow rocks pre-wed shoot
When Cara and Phil asked me to photograph their wedding next year, without knowing any of the details I knew it was going to be one to get excited about.
During my first skype chat with them both, it was clear the way they felt about each other. They couldn't keep their hands off each other and they couldn't stop making each other laugh - the perfect combination in a couple for any wedding photographer.
Cara was keen to do a pre-wed shoot in advance of their big day next year to get used to the camera and to get some pics of them together. Cara knew the places that would mean the most to them for the shoot and I was over the moon when she said where they were - only some of the coolest music venues in Glasgow - yeeeeha!
Cara & Phil both work in the music industry you see and met whilst on tour with the same band. Both have worked in the venues we used and knew every nook, cranny, dressing room and fire escape. In all the venues in the world they've worked in the Barrowlands, Nice'n'Sleazy and King Tuts are their faves!
It was such a lovely way to spend an afternoon...getting to know them a little bit better...Phil just has Cara in stitches - constantly, Cara does 'sultry' really well and they both just bounce of each other so naturally - I think sometimes they even forgot I was there. Perfect!
The plans for their wedding sound phenomenal and I can't wait to get them back in front of the camera!
