YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER

I’ve lived in Edinburgh, Scotland most of my life, apart from a spell in the Royal Air Force.
It was whilst serving that I found out that I had a love of photography, I was lucky enough to be able to take photos from the most unusual of places, places that the general public were prohibited from, for example, hanging out the rear of a Hercules aircraft whilst refuelling a Phantom fighter jet. This was an awesome experience! After my RAF career, I started to find my feet in the wedding photography world. I had contracts with Nurseries in and around Edinburgh. Taking photos of youngsters at the nursery was certainly challenging, but fun nonetheless. I also combined my photography skills and my hobby of Skydiving, I became a qualified Sports Skydive Photographer, and one of Skydive St.Andrews Camera flyers. Moving onto Event Photography, I ran this business with another friend and photographer. 

We were regular photographers for Loretto Senior School in Musselburgh, amongst other High Schools and businesses in and around Edinburgh. After a couple of years, I decided it was time to channel all my experience back into Wedding Photography.
I’ve always had a creative eye and believed that I could produce beautiful images for my brides, so I decided to undertake further photography training, learning as much about Off Camera Flash (OCF) as I can. OCF is where you utilise multiple Flash Heads to control light.
When executed correctly (and with a lot of practice) you can produce some stunning images, as you may have seen here on my site. I firmly believe if you can offer your Bride & Groom something different as well as the traditional photos that are expected, then you are well on your way to delivering a set of wedding photographs that your couple will love & treasure for a lifetime.

David was so organised throughout the day, he arrived early at the Castle, and set up quietly and without disturbing a very busy bridal preparation. What I like about David’s style is that we hardly knew he was …More
