Mini Sessions are Go!

I can't quite believe how quickly this year's sessions have come around! The Mini Sessions are now in their fourth year - and each year they get bigger and more popular! Once again, they were hosted at Rosetta Nursery to raise money for their funds.  It was fantastic to see so many clients back year on year - and also to welcome quite a few new faces!! Together we raised £340! A job well done!  Thanks to everyone who took part - here are a few of my favourites! x

Worried that you have missed out? Don't be! Why not come along to my Open Studio Day on 3rd December? Just drop me an email for details!

Dan and Laura Tie the Knot!

Congratulations to Dan and Laura - a wonderful couple who tied the knot at the gorgeous Curradine Barns, Shrawley.

Their wedding was truly beautiful, with bright flowers and colourful touches - and not to mention, fast cars! Laura looked absolutely stunning in her Lusan Mandongus dress and Dan certainly made a perfect match, looking very dapper in his smart blue Ted Baker suit.  

It was such a happy and chilled out occasion for all parties involved - and the sun even shined as we made our way outside for the photos. 

Dan and Laura, I wish you every happiness in marriage! Congratulations, once again and thank you so much for asking me to be your wedding photographer! X

Sister Act!

I loved photographing these two sisters - they were a little double act and so much fun! We had a beautiful location that was just as bright and fun as their little personalities!

Matt and Lucy Tie the Knot at Cringletie, in the Beautiful Scottish Borders.

Congratulations to Matt and Lucy, who tied the knot at Cringletie House in the Scottish Borders! The couple wed in complete secret and in front of their two beautiful girls, who then sprung their own surprise with a heartfelt poem for their mum and dad.

The day was perfect - an amazing location with gorgeous weather to boot! Set in beautiful wooded surroundings, The Cringletie provided a stunning backdrop for Matt and Lucy's big day.

Thanks again for having me along to photograph your special day - I was delighted to be a part of it!

Calum and Layla Tie the Knot at The Merchant's Hall, Edinburgh!

Last Saturday saw Calum and Layla make their promises in front of family and friends in a very romantic Merchant's Hall, Edinburgh.  They had a beautiful Humanist ceremony with celebrant Jackie Grant.  The setting was absolutely perfect for their big day, with a big domed roof, huge windows and ornate fireplaces - we even managed to make it out between the odd shower for a couple of photos on Rose Street.

Once again, huge congratulations to a lovely couple - and thank you so much for having me along to photograph your special day!

Layla and her bridesmaids had their hair and makeup done by Janice Dawson, JD Bridal Hair.  The  flowers, a gorgeous pastel bouquet,  by Flowers by McDowell's and Layla's stunning dress was from Pretty Woman, Meadowbank.

Time for Celebrations!

Last week, I met Bill and Ruth Duff.  An absolutely gorgeous couple who were visiting the beautiful Scottish Borders, all the way from California.

They were celebrating their Golden Wedding Anniversary at The Barony Castle, where they stayed fifty years ago, whilst on their honeymoon.  It was a real delight to photograph them on their return trip - they were great in front of the camera, with those stolen glances, kisses and cuddles!

Everything's Rosie!

I love a good pet portrait!! Especially when that pet is a lovely, well behaved dog such as Rosie! She was perfect and made for a seamless shoot!! She definitely brought the sunshine with her!

A Fleeting Moment..

Newborn shoots are among my favourite to do. It's a real privilege to share in that moment when everything is brand new.  The overwhelming feelings and emotions between parent, baby and sibling.  It brings it all flooding back to when my babies were brand new too.  So I know how important it is to capture it.

I love to take my time and set up shots, making sure everything perfect so that mum and dad have some beautiful images to look back upon for years to come.  Memories to cherish. Sometimes, though, it is that split second moment that you have to capture before it is gone forever.  Like the unmistakable connection between sisters that presents itself.  That's where the skill of a photographer comes into its own.  This wonderful little shoot had many moments - but two in particular I think, really sum up the love for a newborn baby and the pride of an older sibling.

The Whole World In His Hands

Yesterday I had the privilege to meet this beautiful little boy after his mum and dad booked a newborn, six months and one year photo-shoot.

He was absolutely adorable, and after a wee bit of chill out time with dad, slept like a little angel!

I can’t wait to meet him again in six months time!!
