Karen & Marc \\ Outer Hebrides Wedding Photographer

05/03/201703/04/2017

Karen and Marc got married at the end of April last year in South Uist, Karen’s home. They both live over in Ireland, Marc’s home country, and they planned the wedding from afar and did a fantastic job! As well as travelling over from Ireland for the wedding themselves, they also had a whole host of family and friends travel from all over the world to the Outer Hebrides to help celebrate their marriage. The day was filled with love, laughter and so much happiness.

Karen and Marc were married by Deacon Martin Matheson and Fr Donald MacKay at St. Peter’s Church in Daliburgh, then went on to The Borrodale Hotel for the drinks reception where the Sgoil Lionacleit Pipeband played and then marched everyone over to South End Community Hall which was beautifully decorated by Shona and Peter Steele and catered by the fantastic Stepping Stone Restaurant . The beautiful cake was made by Chrisella P’s Cakes and the night’s entertainment was provided by some local artists who formed a Ceilidh Band and a favourite band of Marc’s over from Ireland, Beatroot.

Karen and her girls had their hair styled by LeeAnn MacKenzie, Mobile Hairdressing, their make-up done by the lovely Sandra’s Make Up. Wedding dress and bridesmaids dresses were from Angelique Lamont Bridal, flower girls dresses from Debenhams, Karen’s shoes were from Dune London and beautiful flowers by Fluraichean Mhàiri. Marc and his dapper groomsmen were suited and booted by Wilson’s Menswear Monaghan.

I can’t thank Karen, Marc and their family and friends enough for being so kind and welcoming…. and most of all, FUN to work with! I’m so happy I was there to capture it all for you. <3

Pollock Country Park, Glasgow \\ Lucy & Jamie: Pre Wed

20/01/201703/04/2017

When I think back, it was a miracle this shoot happened. We were all feeling a bit worse for ware, having indulged in a few beverages the night before…. combine that with a roasting hot day and some serious dehydration, myself and Lucy constantly talking about the food we want to eat to cure us and Jamie getting angry because we were making him hungry….. you wouldn’t think it would go too well at all!! Well it did. We rocked it. It was so so lovely to catch up with these beauts after far too long and get some gorgeous photos of them before the wedding day. The wedding will be on the blog soon, it was totally epic so keep an eye out. <3

Oh and after our pre-wedding shoot we had a bit of time to get a few photos with with their BEAUTIFUL son Sebastian, who was fantastic in front of the camera! Have you ever seen a more beautiful smile?! <3

South Uist Engagement Shoot \\ Karen & Marc

01/06/201607/11/2016

At the end of April I was up in South Uist for Karen and Marc’s wedding and we managed to get out the day before the wedding for a quick pre-wedding shoot. I offer these are part of my full day wedding package as I find it really helps my clients relax and get to know me a bit better before the big day! It’s not always necessary but it’s something I really enjoy doing with my clients and we always have a bit of fun!

We chose Loch Carnan as the location for the pre-wedding shoot because of the wind turbines you can see in the background of some of the images. Hmmm… why wind turbines?! Well Karen and Marc met while Karen was home working at the Borrodale Hotel in Daliburgh where Marc frequently went for dinner while he was over on the island building these very turbines! So for them, they will always be special. 🙂 Enjoy!

Family fun in Kelvingrove Park \\ The Scott Family

17/03/201607/11/2016

In November last year I was up in Glasgow for some family shoots and was very excited to catch up with this awesome couple and meet their lovely little boy Alasdair who was a total trooper even though he was teething! Almost 6 years ago (wow!!!!) Graeme & Eileen asked me to shoot their wedding for them.. back then I was pretty much still a photography baby! These guys helped me on my way to where I am today… and it was such a pleasure to see them again and take photos of their little family.

Island Wedding in Inverness at The Kingsmill Hotel \\ Emma & Donald

01/03/201607/11/2016

Last April I was up in Inverness shooting Emma & Donald’s wonderful wedding! This wedding was extra special because I’ve known Emma for a long time as she is one of my sister’s best friends. It was lovely to spend such a special day with them and I thoroughly enjoyed the wedding! Not going to say anything else, there’s a lot of photos!! So I’ll let them speak for themselves. Enjoy!
