This update finds me a little jet-lagged after a much needed two week holiday at our villa in Florida. The two weeks just flew in unfortunately, but it was really nice for Morag and I to put our feet up and simply relax.
Now that we are back home in Scotland, today’s blog post shows the results of the pre-wedding photoshoot I did with Eilidh and Peter just before I left on holiday.
Eilidh and Peter are getting married next July at Alloa Baptist Church and then onwards to Stirling Management Centre, which is located within the grounds of Stirling University (one of Scotland’s finest Educational establishments). Stirling Management Centre is an excellent Wedding Venue which is often overlooked by couples in favour of the traditional hotel function suite. So if you are planning a wedding in the Stirlingshire area, be sure to add them to you shortlist of potential venues.
I arranged to meet Eilidh and Peter at the Stirling University Campus and we took some shots in the beautiful grounds there. Then we nipped down to the area surrounding the “new” Stirling Bridge, which links Stirling Town Centre and the Railway Station with the new part of town. This area is currently being re-developed from the remnants of the old Players Cigarette factory (how time passes!). The pace of the re-development has been very very slow and I really feel for the businesses located over there – however it does present some excellent photography opportunities.
As a Scottish wedding photographer I am always looking for new locations and this was the first time I’d taken a couple to this particular spot and fortunately it worked out great and we got some really cool images.
Just before jumping on a plane for the States I emailed the images to Eilidh and Peter and I was very pleased to receive a lovely reply from them when I was away, saying how much they loved the photos. Thanks guys, it was great fun taking the images and I’m really looking forward to your wedding next year.
