Easterbrook Wedding Fayre

Check out the the images below from a recent wedding fayre at the Easterbrook Hall in the beautiful Crichton grounds at Dumfries.

There some great wedding suppliers and photographers in our area.

The Easterbrook Hall hosts it own wedding fayre 3 times a year. It has some cracking function suites and of course it's real trump card is the amazing cathedral style church set in wonderful park surroundings. And no I'm not on commission! I grew up across the road from the Crichton and have spent a few excellent days at some friends weddings at the Easterbrook Hall.

The show had a full catwalk with professional models showing bridal gowns etc as well as various stalls from wide range of wedding suppliers.

Take a look at the lovely bridal gowns on the slideshow below.

I'll post some links to some of the suppliers when I get their info.

They're gettin' hitched!! :)




Kerry & Howard are getting hitched!

They are such a great couple and I can't wait till their big day in December at the beautiful Crichton church in Dumfries. I am very honoured that they asked me to photograph their wedding day and being such a cool pair they have some great ideas for the photography on the day.

We were all at a recent wedding fayre in the Crichton when Kerry, Howard and I took a quick wonder round the grounds for a few engagement shots. You can see just how great they are together.

The idea of an engagement shoot is to just have a bit of fun and a great way to get to know the couple better before the big day. This can really help the couple relax a bit in front of the camera and help them enjoy their big day more. Only thing is I CHEATED!!! Kerry and Howard are already great friends of ours! :)

Click on each image to take a better look and check back in the new year to see some shots from the big day. It's going to be a blast!!

First blog!!!!!!





Well here it is. My first post!

A great way to share my journals, favourite moments from recent shoots, slide shows (once I've worked out how to upload them!) and just a better way of getting to know me.

It's also a good place for me to put stuff up until the shiny new website is up in the new year. It's looking' very cool so far and I can't wait to get it out there.

I have a passion for wedding photography and 'catching the moment'. Something that isn't just nice to look at but something that provokes a thought, a feeling, a smile or even a tear!

It's a HUGE privilege to be involved in any wedding day. The months of excitement and preparation that's put into it all can fly by all too fast on the day! it can be very rewarding to present the detail, the love, fun and tears of the day in a storybook or slide show. Something that, in years to come, will always take you back to that day.

Besides, it great fun! (but don't tell anyone)
