Annabel and Mike, Inverness Wedding

After arriving back from Cyprus on Thursday night, I had the wedding of Annabel Sall and Mike Bain, who are from Aberdeen, well Mike is actually originally from Thurso but lives in Aberdeen now. I did a pre wedding shoot with the couple and Annabel's lovely horse, Reggie, a couple of weeks previously, and was really looking forward to this one as these were two new venues for me. The ceremony was in Inverness Cathedral, which I'd never been in before, with the reception at the fantastic Aldourie Castle - the first wedding held at this venue. The day began with preparation shots at the castle before we drove into the city to the cathedral. When we came out it was pouring rain which was a bit disappointing, but it was just a bit showery, with nice sunny spells in between. It meant just having to grap opportunities to go outside whenever they arose, which is never ideal but it worked out great. We even managed to get a quick 5 minute shoot in an old burial ground on the castle estate between courses at dinner! The whole day was fantastic, with a great atmosphere, which was capped off with an amazing finale, where Mike surprised Annabel at the first dance, as a take That tribute band suddenly appeared on stage singing 'Greatest Day'. It was a great and fitting end to a lovely day. Thanks guys, for being such great sports!

Wedding Fayre - Drumossie Hotel 13th September

Drumossie Hotel Wedding Show
13th September 11am-4pm
I'll be exhibiting at the wedding show at the Drumossie hotel this Sunday, where you can come along and meet me, and have a look at the albums and products now on offer. Wedding fayres are a great chance to get to meet many different types of wedding suppliers from photographers to wedding dresses, from cakes to stationery. everything is covered If you live in the Inverness area it's worth popping in to see what is available in the Highlands. From a photography point of view - wedding fayres allow you the chance to actually see the products and quality and originality of your photographers, and make a judgement based on this, rather than prices. It's often a very social event and I often see former brides who have popped in with their friends, or recently married brides wanting to get a look at the latest albums before finalising their choices.
I hope to see a lot of couples on Sunday and look forward to discussing your weddings!!
