Highland Minimalism

Anu|🌿|John
.
Eloped to Glencoe on a Sunny October day and did it their way.
.
By saying their vows stood high above Glencoe, surrounded by rugged rocks, flora and fauna.
.
The Autumn sunlight cutting through the gully lines, illuminating the crags and the scree slopes running all the way to the corrie floor was also definitely easy on the eye and we all took a deep breath as we gazed upon this majestic vista.
.
@clairethehumanist rocked an heartfelt and humourous ceremony as always 💚 and with the lovely and good humoured Johns parents as witnesses, it was quite the happy wee band of elopementalists knocking back a few champagnes on the hillside🌿
.
.
So cool to be a part of Anu and Johns day, also like to thank @chrisguthriescottphotos for second shooting for me.High fives pal 👏🏻

Flash back to a few weeks ago at the @photographyfarm shoot day at the magical @dunglassestate
.
It feels like so long ago! Its that 2020 timewarp thing right?
.
I remember feeling nervous on the day about leading/mentoring groups of such talented photographers, some of them seem to be styled shoot pros and for me it was my first experience of this type of shoot, but it turned out to be mega fun and really laid back with a bit of learning thrown in. So great to see enthusiasm from all the attendees and some of the images I have seen since are incredible!!

Finding the quiet parts during their awesome run away elope in September🌿

Im heading back to Loch Lomond today for a re-scheduled elopement and so looking forward to meeting new faces, witnessing some joy and to getting my feet dirty, tramping the heather, the pebbled shores and the mossy woodlands
.
Its been a busy few weeks but with lockdown II potentially around the corner for us here in Scotland, Im just grateful for the little I have managed to shoot over the past weeks and for the clients/friends/family who have stuck by me and provided support/humour💚
.
Looking forward to sharing some sweet elopements from the highlands and beyond very soon..

East Coast Loves 🌿
.
Last week I was mentoring/teaching/bantering/shivering..! with a small group of (socially distanced) photographers at a styled shoot dreamed up and schemed by Lisa @devlinphotos for @photographyfarm with styling by the bloody magnificent @wearegloam
All held at the majestic AF @dunglassestate
.
Full list of movers and shakers below but I thought I’d share a few quick flicks.
.
Its been so good to see the awesome images by attendees being posted on socials over the past few days and how each photographer has a different eye on things like detail, light, composition and context on each set up, Im looking forward to seeing more..
.
The dresses, styling and models were all so incredible to work with and as a fist time for me doing a styled shoot, although nervous at first, I enjoyed the experience of leading the groups and answering questions and as always, I learned some new tricks too.👌🏽

Beyond the Castle walls
.
I returned to my most local venue last week, the enchanted @borthwickcastle
To shoot the awesome ‚micro’ wedding of Claire+Ryan.
.
It was so good to be back between the walls of this ancient keep to work with these two gentle, creative souls
.
It wasnt the ‚big’ wedding Claire and Ryan had planned initially but this more intimate approach felt considered and very special, with a close gathering of family and friends enjoying a beautiful ceremony and the warmth and wonder of this historic building
.
Post-ceremony we wandered the woodland together, between the fern, the stream and along the avenue of trees, like Mary Queen of Scots no doubt did, when she stayed here all those years(400 ish) ago..

Last week I was delightetd to receive the word that I had been listed as one of the top 50 wedding photographers in the UK!😮
.
2020 hasnt been forthcoming with the good news so I’m just hanging on here to any little bit of positive
.
Im honoured to be listed here by @professional_photo_mag and @narrativeapp and Im proud to be nestled in alongside some of the most incredibly talented operators in the business and masters of the craft.Also proud to call some of them my friends.
.
Also thanks to the couples I work with (Like Michelle and James here)who put their trust in me and allow me in to document their story, to create freely and occassionally go all in and allow me to perch them on high rocky outcrops in sideways rain and Scottish Westerly winds 👊🏼
.
Im hopping out of the door this very minute now to go shoot a wedding at a venue 5 minutes drive away, my local beaut of a castle @borthwickcastle
I’ll never take this job or this industry for granted and delivering better and better work for my couples whilst pushing myself creatively and personally will always be my mission
.
Have a great Saturday🌿

~Lost Valley Lovers~
.
A Secret Elopement in Glencoe🌿
.
Anu + John ran away to Scotland last Friday and married between the hills, backlit by the lazy Autumn light pouring down from the Lost Valley
.
After our approach, involving a fun river crossing and some upwards hiking through the heather, @clairethehumanist delivered another beauty of a ceremony, the epic surrounds witness to the intimate nature of the vows
.
Such a sweet day with Anu and John, we had a total blast following the light from Loch side to hill top to woodland..
