7th June Fearn Abbey

Today's wedding was at Fearn Abbey, my first time there. It's a beautiful venue. Reception was held in a marquee at Isla's parents home. We had a whole load of fun today with a really cool location I spotted when I visited them a couple of weeks ago. There are many amazing pictures from this shoot, but I'm saving most of them for now :-)

Dornoch Cathedral was the venue today for the wedding of Marianne Durrand and Scott McCue, both from Skinner Place in Dornoch. The reception was held at the Dornoch Castle Hotel. We went to Skelbo Castle to do some loaction pictures.

Ulbster Arms Hotel

I spent the day shooting various parts of the Ulbster Arms Hotel in Halkirk, for their new website which is coming soon, and advertising products. They really have done a great job of this hotel.

I did some new pictures for the Park Hotel, for advertising purposes.
