Wedding Photographer Fife, Birkhill Castle. Andy and Claire

Catching up on the blog, last Saturday took me to a beautiful location Birkhill Castle in Fife, the  ancestral home of the Earl and Countess of Dundee. I photograph a lot of Weddings here, it’s an ideal location for a small house party type Wedding.

The weather was really good for an outside Wedding, this is not great news for a photographer however as harsh strong sunlight make for hard shadows but on the positive side of the coin it does make everyone smile and be happy and that's more important for a Wedding surely?

Andy was a little nervous, one of the issues with a location like Birkhill and not having a Wedding planner is all the little things that you need to remember on the day, he had a lot on his mind!


The view from the gardens is to die for.

Claire arrived in style looking absolutely gorgeous

Wedding Favour ideas, Scottish Wedding Favours

One of the great things about going to Wedding Shows (apart from meeting all you lovely customers) is that every now and then I stumble across an idea that is totally unique. This happened at the Fingask Show last Sunday when I found myself across the way from Niall at Sporran Keyrings.

This ideal just really appealed to me so I said I’d gladly put the information on my blog.

They are mini keyrings which can serve as favours on your big day, the really good bit is that they are very practical so people will definitely use them after the Wedding and as you can see in the photograph below they double as place name holders (just pretend that my business card is a place name card)



You’ll need to call Niall for the actual pricing but if you are buying in bulk they can be less than £2 each

Pr photographer Scotland – Business Portrait Photography

A lot of my work is business portraiture for PR and Media companies and this job was no different – well actually it was. I had 1 hour to capture 5 different images of the new Global Sales Director of one of my clients. The job was booked through the PR Agency and they had commissioned the Dakota Hotel in Edinburgh for the job. To get a head start, I arrived about an hour before my client was due to find locations, set up equipment and prepare for his arrival.

The brief from the client was that this had to be a very strong business portrait, this is a very senior member of the team worldwide and the picture had to convey his position and responsibility:

 

This final shot was the lead shot in the company magazine. Dramatic side lighting conveys a sense of power.
