Outdoor Portrait Photography - Becky, Chris & Eve





Here are some beautiful images of our last Portrait Shoot. Georgeous little Eve came with her Mum & Dad, Becky & Chris, to have her Portraits taken.


After taking some studio shots, we decided to go outside where Eve could run around and just be herself. As you can see we captured some stunning natural shots of Eve in her sundress amongst the flowers in our local park.


We're definately getting a big one printed and framed for display in our studio, but we're spoiled for choice as to which one to choose!

Environmental Portrait Photography - Hannah





We had a lovely Portrait Photography session recently with Hannah. She's off to university soon and Mum & Dad wanted some natural shots of her before she goes.


We opted for an outdoor shoot and a casual look in the beautiful countryside of the Scottish Borders.


Good luck with University Hannah, the pics are great!

Classic Portrait Photographer of the Year








The annual Master Photographers Associaton Scottish Awards were held yesterday at Dunblane Hydro . We are delighted to announce that we have won the overall title of Scottish Classic Portrait Photographer of the Year 2011.



The winning image which is shown below is our client Don Nedler from Texas USA, whom we were commisioned to photograph in Australia back in March.



The winning image was shot in Black & White, in studio, with a single light to give a classic look. We wanted to create a more edgy feel though with the facial expression. Dark clothing was chosen to compliment the whole look.



Thanks goes to the judges for acknowledging the artistry and creativity of the image, and most of all thanks to Don for commisioning us to begin with.



As well as the overall title of Classic Portrait Photographer of the Year we also received



Classic Wedding Photographer of the Year - Award of Merit & Award of Excellence


Contemporary Wedding Photographer of the Year - Award of Excellence


Reportage Wedding Photographer of the Year - Award of Merit

Glenskirlie Castle Wedding Photography - Lara & Grant













We were off to Banknock near Stirling last Saturday to photograph the wedding of Lara & Grant, who were married at Glenskirlie Castle.






You couldn't meet a nicer couple than Lara & Grant and it was a pleasure working with them. We spent a lot of time taking pictures inside the Castle as the weather didn't behave itself, but luckily the sun came out later on and our happy couple were able to pose for a few romantic shots with the Castle in the background.






Here are a few of grant & Lara's beautiful images, their album is going to be stunning!

Aberdeen Wedding Photography - Andy & Jen's Wedding at Drum Castle










Andy & Jen's Wedding took place on 16th April 2011. Jen got ready at


Meldrum House Country Hotel where their reception was also held.



The wedding ceremony itself was at the stunning Drum Castle about 45 minutes away. The castle and grounds were perfect for the pictures as was Meldrum House so we were spoilt for choice!



The weather started out a bit wet but by the time Jen arrived at the Castle in her classic white wedding car, the rain had cleared and were able to create a beautiful collection of images in lovely soft light.







The daffodils were in full bloom as Jen arrived at Drum castle




The winding pathways in the grounds of the Castle provided a lovely backdrop




Jen & her Bridesmaids demonstated that it is possible to walk accross the grass in extremely high heels!




The beautiful frontage of Drum Castle







The staircase at Drum castle was perfect for showing off the detail in the back of Jen's dress.

Pretty in Pink! This pink archway at Meldrum House was just begging to be photographed!





The happy couple as they took to the floor for a beautifully choreographed first dance

Parris Photography Seminar in Lancaster






We were invited down to Lancaster recently to give a seminar about running our successful Wedding & Portrait Business.


During the day we took the delegates to the beautiful setting of Lancaster Priory to demonstate simple, elegant posing and shooting with strong sunlight which can be difficult and disatrous if not handled properly.


We were made to feel very welcome by all delegates and the organising committee and our thanks go to them for a great day!
