Sean has a rare raw talent that cannot be expressed through words. He captured our day beautifully and I honestly do not know how I am going to choose between which photos to enlarge for our home. Along with his partner Justyna, they were amazing! They are both friendly and would put any couple at ease on her special day. I cannot begin to describe the artistic talent. – Alicia + Patrick

20 Seconds of maximum Lux as the Sun eventually found a keyhole in the clouds and put the full beams on, gifting us with some fizzy backlight through the Spring showers at the end of Sam & Kath’s beaut elopement in the Scottish Highlands
.
Watching and photographing them run wild, dance, laugh and hug during these brief moments as the Glen burst into Gold was joyous, they really deserved it at the end of their day
.
Hope you are all well out there!

Retour Aux Sources . I was back in my favourite pl

Retour Aux Sources
.
I was back in my favourite place last week running wild in the wind and documenting the elopement of Hazel and Martin
.
They were married in a private ceremony on the Loch side under the watchful eye of the hills of Etive, Ben Starav and Trilleachan.
.
The wind was fierce, biting cold as it whipped over the water but they were absolute troopers and with the help of the celebrant legend that is Andrew Scott, they made it to the finish line without succumbing fully to the hypothermia.

😯 It was a lovely intimate exchange with some beautiful words and backstory and a lovely moment as the ceremony came to a close and the sun split the clouds, illuminating us all and also some of the distant snow peaked summits.
.
An absolute pleasure to work with M&H, a fun, easy going couple and up for hike onto an icy cold hillside to grab some frames!!
.
They eloped here from Ireland (Hazel had the same maiden name as my wee Irish Granny 🙂 ) after falling in love with Glencoe over several visits and Im sure they will be back again, the joy on their faces as we ripped around the Glen was genuine, Glencoe can do that to you, it can get under your skin and become a life long love affair.
.
The ceremony spot they picked had a great view of the Trilleachan slabs, so even while I was hard at work I was glancing up at the granite overlaps and remembering all the fun days Ive had with friends up there climbing and hiking over the past 20 years.
.
I never tire of these parts, the nature and the geology, the quiet woodland and the wild and windy cols, the way the light dances around during these winter months and in between showers is also incredible, it never looks the same twice
.
.
Great to work with Andrew Celebrant finally after hearing so many good things too. Great chat/banter and he seems to not feel the cold.
.
If you are eloping in Glencoe in 2024 and want some more insider info/need a local photographer, check out my bio and fire me a message!
