In my eyes there is nothing more beautiful than the connection of a parent and a child. Especially on their wedding day. It was late in the evening and it all got a bit much. Cuddles are much more important than dancing. #love #emotiveweddings

I had the pleasure of working with an incredibly talented group of industry suppliers in October to put together this fan editorial shoot. I'm so proud of working in the job I do and it was a pleasure to meet so many strong and talented business women. Thanks to Kate @story_of_us for asking me to photograph this shoot.

Last week was a pretty epic week. I photographed Yvonne and Stevens intimate wedding in Skye @skyecowshed. We headed up to the Quiraing where the sun was splitting the sky and lit up the rock in orange. Skye is a popular place for photographers and man, I totally get why. Scotland/Skye truely is jaw droppingly breath taking. I can't wait to get back up there next year for more weddings. I'm lucky enough to be a member of @junebugweddings. Through Junebug I've been asked by some lovely American couples to capture their big day in Skye next year. What an incredible place to get married and I can't wait. Congratulations Yvonne and Steven. I'm honoured you asked me to capture your special day. The pressure is always on when a photographer themselves asks you to capture their big day. Yvonne looked absolutely stunning and was a total tropper at 20 weeks pregnant as she elegantly navigated her wedding dress across the muddy cliff tops of The Quiraing. These two are going to make incredible parents as it was evidently clear what a great team they are. #thequiraing #skyewedding #skyeweddingphotographer

I’m up in Skye ahead of tomorrows wedding of this gorgeous pair. We literally chased the light this evening as I headed straight from Glasgow to The Quiraing to try and catch the incredible light. We just missed the golden light however the colours were still amazing. It was the shortest and windiest shoot I think I've ever done. I got knocked over several times by the sheer strength of the wind. Yvonne is a photographer herself which always adds a little pressure but also a huge compliment. I can't wait for tomorrow as they celebrate their day with a small intimate wedding. Here's hoping for another day of blue skies. #skye #quiraing #scotland

Andrew + Emily’s wedding day was pretty similar to todays weather, a quintessential Scottish grey rainy day. They'd flown over from New Zealand to get married @harelawcountryweddings. Emily said she wanted her photos to capture the moodiness of the Scottish atmosphere. In Scotland we have to deal with all weather conditions from blazing direct sunlight to pouring rain, snow and howling winds. When I first started photographing weddings a rainy day would put the fear into me. Now, I love it! Check out that light! Happy weekend everyone! #alternativeweddingphotographer #scottishweddingphotographer

Ok so I know I've posted a lot of confetti shots recently but who Dosent love a confetti shot. Only weirdos! Here's one from Sam and Lisas first dance @dalduffbarn. I'm nearly finished this edit and flipping excited for them to see it. What an awesome wedding.
