We had a great time photographing Amanda & Barry's wedding on 1st April. The venue was the Brig O' Doon House Hotel in Alloway which is a beautiful setting for a wedding.

Amanda & Barry were both really excited about their wedding photographs which made our job easy. They were fantastic to work with and the images are stunning.

Fashion Portraits

Portrait Photographer Hawick

Portrait Photographer Scottish Borders

We love to something a bit different when it comes to our Portraiture and this weekend we had the perfect opportunity. Emma's parents wanted a Portrait of her but nothing conventional or traditional. They wanted something to hang on their wall which was more like a piece of art.

The result is a very "fashion" style of Portrait, very contemporary yet timeless. We love shooting this style of Portrait so hopefully showing this will inspire other people considering having a Portrait taken, to think outside the box!

Master Photographer of the Year 2012


The annual Master Photographers Association Scottish Awards have just been held in Edinburgh. Parris Photography have been named not only Portrait Photographer of the Year but overall Master Photographer of the Year for 2012!
The winning image for Portrait Photographer of the Year is below. We love this image for it's "quirkyness" and to us it has a very British feel to it! The couple in the picture are John & Ursula Rigg originally from England now living in South Carolina.
We had a great laugh with John & Ursula and would like to say a huge thank you to them for choosing us to take their Portraits. They love the shot as much as we do and it will soon be on permanent display in their home. We hope it brings a smile every time they look at it!
As well as this amazing acheivement we at Parris Photography also received certificates of excellence for our Wedding Photography, a couple of samples of the images are below.
This image is of one of our Brides, Lucy. She and husband Greg were married at Lennoxlove, Haddington. Lennoxlove have beautiful grounds and we loved the classic pose and the detail of the trees in the background giving depth to the image.

This is a selection of images from Joanne & Peters wedding in Dumfries. Chrichton Church is one of our favourite places to photograph. The stonework and pillars of the church are amazing!
