Emily and James are getting married at Dalmenny Park in a few months time, so I took the opportunity to take a few pre-wedding pics after we met in Clarkston to talk about their day. It broke the ice, and I don’t think they’ll be as shy of the camera when the big day comes.
When I took a few portrait pictures of Emily and James, I couldn’t help taking a few pictures of Emily’s mum – with the family dog, which I think is a Scottish terrier. I can’t remember what the dog was called, but it had the loveliest brown eyes.
Katrina and Chris are getting married at the Vu later this year – so we took a few pictures. They are having their proper pre-wedding E-shoot in a few weeks time, but I could’t help taking a few pictures when we met at the Vu to discuss their wedding day.
Gillian and Chris enjoyed a wonderful Marquee wedding at Knockderry House. Travelling all the way to Argyll from Portsmouth, they were married outside on one of those lovely days in Argyll, and celebrated the afternoon and evening with family and friends in the Knockderry marquee. Gill and Chris met whilst in the Royal Navy, with Chris still serving and Gill now working in in marketing, and they decided on getting married in Argyll because the area holds so many happy memories for them.
Brothers and sisters – like chalk and cheese they say. Felicity and Calum had their pictures taken to celebrate a birthday, with felicity looking as pretty as ever and Calum looking every bit the monarch of the glen. Oh yes, and Sam the dog….
What better way to celebrate a family get together – than to have a family portrait session. The Dunne Family from Helensburgh celebrated a family get together, with all the new additions to the family on one of those lovely warm days in Helensburgh.
Elaine and David certainly know how to do things in style… They had their intimate wedding at the welcoming Knockderry Hotel. They moored their yacht at the Knockderry, and with Elaine still wearing her wedding dress and David wearing his kilt, after the ceremony they sailed their yacht back to Dunoon, and back to a party with all their friends at the local yacht club. It was a lovely day, with a mild offshore breeze, and plenty of smiles.
Its been a year. Doesn’t time fly….
A few weeks ago I had the greatest pleasure of Photographing the Rev Caskie, from Rhu Church. I don’t know who was more nervous, me or him… We got some great pictures for publication, and a nice portrait for the vestry, too.
I’ve recently been working at a company near Erskine called Logitech UK – who make precision grinding and cutting equipment – and they had lots of nice shiny and sparkly things for me to photograph. Here’s some…
And they did taste lovely after I’d photographed them…
Macro photography is also very difficult – photographing small items – which leads you intro all kinds of difficulties with focussing and light. These were some silver and gold earings I was asked to photograph. I likes the white background, then tried red, then black – and couldn’t make my mind up as I liked all three colours – so I photographed the earrings three times…
Some nice shots working with fruit and veg. The beans and fruit were lovely…
Photographing black objects is difficult, especially shiny black objects. This was one…
