Brrr
On our way back from snowboarding at Glenshee, we went in search of frozen lochs and found this arctic scene.
Jay was manning the camera while I was in charge of the flask and biscuits.

Zoe & Wullie's wedding in SWD
We still get a thrill every time we see our photos in print. So it was an exciting moment this morning when a loud thud indicated the arrival of the latest issue of the Scottish Wedding Directory.
This bumper issue celebrates the magazine's 15th anniversary, and the SWD team have really excelled themselves. If you're planning your wedding it's a great starting point for ideas, inspiration and sound advice.

This issue also comes with an extra 'venues' magazine. It features the wedding of Zoe & Wullie Campbell, which we photographed at Fintry Kirk & Monachyle Mhor in May 2009. It was a beautiful day (except for the weather - which was more atmospheric!), and seeing it in the magazine brought back lots of lovely memories!


We met up with Zoe & Wullie again in November for a wonderful wintry Trash the Dress shoot. Check out the photos here to see why a pair of waders was on Jay's Christmas list!

A little wedding inspiration
January is always a really busy time when it comes to wedding enquiries, and this year is proving no different.
We're also busy compiling our lists of favourite images from our 2009 weddings, so look out for those blog posts coming soon. It's proving very hard to narrow the selection down, but we're getting there!
In the meantime, for those of you who are newly-engaged and looking for some inspiration, I thought I'd share three of my favourite wedding blogs with you:
Little Miss Wedding - Designed for brides who are looking for something "boutique, unusual, fantastic or ridiculous".
Rock 'n Roll Bride - The perfect place for those of you who come out in a rash at the thought of a big poofy frock, and want to do things a little (or a lot) differently!
Style Me Pretty - 100% gorgeous, that's all I need to say.
And don't forget to check out the links to some of our favourite wedding suppliers (found on the right hand side of our blog).
We hope you enjoy the planning, and feel free to give us a shout if we can help with anything at all!

It's a new dawn...
Happy New Year! We hope you partied hard and that those of you who are busy planning your weddings (or are just married) managed to get some time out to relax too.
And congratulations to everyone who got engaged over the holidays. We've been hearing of some very romantic proposals taking place in the snow!
After a lovely break catching up with friends and family, it's business as usual here again - at least for one half of Elemental (Jay spent Christmas with his family in Ontario, Canada and is snowboarding there right now). It's hard being apart at this time of year, but we're very lucky to get to work together all year round, doing something which we both feel so passionate about.
We're really excited about 2010! We've got lots of incredible weddings coming up, along with some exciting new projects that we look forward to sharing with you over the coming weeks and months.
On a personal level, we will celebrate our third wedding anniversary in May, one of us will turn 30 in September (I won't say who) and Jay is to be best man at his best friend's wedding in Canada in December. So if he seems to be taking even more interest in the best man's speech than usual, you'll know why!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
Another amazing year is coming to an end and we're really looking forward to spending Christmas with our family and friends (not to mention over-indulging in Guitar Hero).
We've loved working with you all over the last twelve months and can't wait to share our latest projects with you in the New Year!
We'll be officially re-opening on January 4th but, you know us, we'll be dipping into our inbox before then, so feel free to get in touch.
Have a fantastic Christmas & New Year!

Louise & Andrew - Cramond Kirk & Harburn House - Edinburgh wedding photography
We've had an amazing year, and Saturday's wedding - our last of 2009 - meant it ended on a total high!
It was a very foggy and frosty morning, and Harburn was looking breathtaking.

Over at Haymains, Andrew's brother and best man, Keith was giving his speech a final run through.

Introducing Andrew and the boys...



The all-important rings.

And a little something to keep the chill out.

Meanwhile, Team Louise was looking very glam over at the main house - even in PJs!



Hello beautiful dress & shoes!


Louise wore this stunning tiara during the day, and then a gorgeous Jenny Packham headpiece (as seen on Cheryl Cole) for night.

The bouquets were so pretty...


Flower girl Caitlin was a little bit in awe of the stunning bride...

Until Louise cracked a joke...


The ceremony took place at Cramond Kirk, where Andrew's parents were married.




Then it was back to Harburn House, where a very warm welcome (including Bloody Marys and a candy bar) was waiting.


Then came our absolute favourite bit - our photo session with Louise & Andrew.





The marquee looked wonderful.



And every detail of the day was just perfect.




A photo from our pre-wedding shoot was turned into a signature board for the guests to leave messages on.

Andrew delivered a cracking speech, despite being heckled by his own wife. ;-)


We heart Louise & Andrew's first dance.


The James Honey Band were fantastic, and the dancefloor was packed all night.



Fireworks were the perfect end to an incredible day.

Louise & Andrew - What a blast! Thanks for being so much fun to photograph, and for braving the cold (and the mud!) with us. We hope you have a fantastic 'Mini-Moon' and can't wait to show you the rest of your photos.
