Ardtornish Estate on BBC Radio

I found this quite by accident as I was showing some prospective brides and grooms places we'd shot weddings at as they were after ideas for venues.

We shot a wedding up at Ardtornish, in the western Highlands of Scotland back in March 2012. It's simply beautiful with great people running it and is surrounded by some of the most incredible landscape (more photos of Scotland here), not only in the UK but in the world.

I thought I'd also take this opportunity to put up some previously unseen photographs from Jenny & Andy's wedding day we shot up at Ardtornish.

The evening reception included a ceilidh and as some might know you can't just photograph a proper ceilidh, it can be chaos and it's brilliant fun! So I filmed it on one of our Canon DSLRs with a 50mm lens.

Coffee & Catchup

Had a lovely coffee and catchup with Carley for her wedding in June 2013. Her and Stuart are getting hitched at Cleve Spa Hotel near Wellington in Somerset and having seen the madness that ensues at our PhotoBooth they're looking at adding it to their package!

I also do landscapes and sunsets...

...when I can!

I know this is a wedding and portrait blog. But someone asked me the other day if I do other forms of photography. 

The short answer is "YES!"

The middle length answer is "Yes I do when I can find time or I see a particularly inspirational landscape in front of me or an intense sunset"...just like the one below which was taken barely an hour ago which in turn made me get on this blog.

Glencoe, Scotland (March 2012 when we passed through it on the way to a wedding up in the western highlands)

Glastonbury Tor, Somerset - Summer Solstice 2012 (typical UK weather) 

Sunset over Burnham-on-Sea, Somerset, Spring 2009

Our Premium PhotoBooks

I thought it might be good to do a promo video showcasing one of our clients Premium PhotoBooks.

We shot Craig & Louise's wedding up in their home town of Beaumaris on Anglesey (North Wales) and at their reception at Seiont Manor in Snowdonia.

The Premium Photobooks include a FREE professional design service by skilled designers to create stunning storybooks from your photographs, finished by expert printing and hand-binding of your albums. Choose from eight sizes of Premium Photobooks - all with pages that lay flat to create stunning edge-to-edge panoramic spreads.

After our Brides & Grooms have received their photographs on DVD they can being the not so easy task of choosing which photographs to include in their album, but there's no rush! One couple have only just ordered their Premium PhotoBook, nearly 2 years after their wedding!  Once chosen we shall get your photographs to the designers. You can chose from 3 design styles and also get to approve the design before printing, or easily request changes.

Printing of our Premium PhotoBooks is no ordinary feat. Printing, laminating and hand-binding are all parts of a 23 stage process that ensures the hard-bound Photobooks are as handsome as they are durable.

Your Premium Photobook design is printed onto professional silver halide photo paper using state-of-the-art digital printing press.

Thin sheets of PVC are then inserted to ensure the finished pages are rigid and infinitely more robust than lower quality photo books. This also means that when your Photobook is open the pages lie flat - the design is displayed across the entire spread, creating a stunning, edge-to-edge panoramic effect.

Finally your front and back photos are mounted onto the covers then sealed underneath a clear crystal acrylic to provide protection and an ultra-stylish finish.
