lisa + scott • isle of skye

Lisa & Scott returned to Lisa's roots to tie the knot in Skye. There was nothing that was going to stop me from shooting this wedding (even an overnight 5 hour drive from Kelly & Shaun's wedding in Edinburgh the day before!). The prospect of shooting in Skye was enough but add to that the ceremony being on a boat and the promise of a great party in a local hall... it was most definitely going to be something pretty special!

There were so many great moments for me when shooting this wedding. The journey to the boat from Portree to the Kyle of Lochalsh on the beautiful vintage bus with all the girls was so much fun and such a great start to the day... and when the boat stopped the engine in the middle of the water giving us spectacular views over to Skye as well as complete peace and tranquility (the water was beautifully calm) in order to have the ceremony was pretty special. Our journey back to Portree, just Lisa, Scott, the bus driver and me was fab too. I felt I was getting a private tour of the island, stopping off at some stunning locations for photos on the way back to the reception in Portree.

Just a pretty amazing day all round. It's safe to say I would most definitely make that journey again... :-)

shaun + kelly • dundas castle • edinburgh

Hand-holding, drum-beating, tartan-wearing, pocket loving, gun-toting, chef-singing and more than a little emotional...sums up Shaun and Kelly's wedding at Dundas Castle pretty well... and WHAT A GORGEOUS COUPLE!

natalie + ify • glasgow

Honestly one of the wildest wedding's I've ever photographed...in the best possible sense! Natalie & Ify are just the loveliest of couples. I did nothing but laugh for the entire duration of their couple shoot at Kelvingrove. Natalie's laugh is infectious... so I knew the wedding was going to be fun.

Lots of Ify's Nigerian family had flown over especially for the wedding...and apparently in typically Nigerian style, missed it (YES... as in MISSED THE WEDDING!) but were there to welcome the happy couple as they left the University Chapel dressed to the nines in amazing traditional Nigerian dress.

What then followed was just the craziest party with Three Sisters Bake providing the feast and Natalie & Ify providing the booze (ALL OF IT!). Who else can say there was a dance off BEFORE their first dance to the band sound checking! I told you... totally wild and utterly brilliant. There would have been a lot of guests with sore heads the next day but I can guarantee they would all be saying 'that was one hell of a wedding'...
