As I sit at my desk making the final adjustments to my last ever wedding gallery (for Niamh and Callum), I find myself reflecting on the past 15 years.

What began as a simple hobby—capturing moments of my kids growing up—turned into something far greater than I ever imagined. And yes, I did capture those memories, but I also had the privilege of documenting countless memories along the way.

After much thought, I’m ready to share that I’m retiring the cameras professionally(for real this time). This hasn’t been an easy decision, but it feels like the right one. Life has a way of throwing challenges at us, and for me, my mental health has been a big part of that journey. Balancing two jobs for the past 20 years has also taken its toll, and I’m looking forward to focusing on just one.

For those who don’t know, my “side hustles” have been many—starting with car valeting, then moving into photography and photobooths. Each chapter has taught me something new, but photography has been the most rewarding of all.

None of this would have been possible without my incredible customers. Your trust, kindness, and support have meant the world to me. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your milestones and memories—it’s been an honour.

✨ Back at Houston House tomorrow for another magical day!

It’s been a busy few weeks—non-stop moments, meeting future couples, editing and magic—but I’m nearly at that mythical “quiet season”… or so they say! 🤪

If you haven’t already, come join me over on TikTok! I’m sharing some behind-the-scenes goodness and would love to have you along for the ride as I grow that little corner of the internet.

For now, it’s time to recharge and rest up—big day ahead! 💫

✨ Wedding season magic continues! ✨

I’ve just had the joy of delivering James & Emily’s wedding gallery – a day filled with love, plenty of laughter, and so many unforgettable moments. 📸💍

Next up on my editing desk are Scott & Hayley’s celebrations at The Vu, followed closely by Alan & Kim’s big day at The Alona. Each story is unique, and I can’t wait to bring their memories to life in the same heartfelt way.

In between weddings, I’m also keeping busy with a mix of working, walking, and weaving together our family holiday vlogs – Plus tonight I have a catch up with a special couple who is getting married at the end of this month....so there’s plenty of storytelling happening behind the scenes too. 🌍🎥

Thank you to all my couples and followers for being part of this creative journey – your support means the world. 💙

The chaos has cleared, the coffee’s brewed, and I’m back at the desk — ready to edit, plan, and prep for what’s next.

Let’s just say: the updates ahead aren’t just tweaks. They’re transformations. 😎📷

Still buzzing from yesterday’s wedding magic! 💫📸 Over 2,000 moments captured at Hayley & Scott’s stunning celebration at The Vu — the views, the vibes, the love… I barely put the camera down! (**edit - this doesn't include the photos from my action camera that I gave the kids to use)

Next stop: The Alona Hotel tomorrow for another beautiful day of love and laughter.

Then Sunday? Admin mode activated 🧠💻 (and maybe a cheeky nap).

Grateful, inspired, and loving every minute of this season. Let’s go! 💍✨

⚜️ **Meet The Gold Diggers!** ⚜️

Yesterday, we had the absolute pleasure of celebrating the love and adventure of the new Mr & Mrs Campbell aka *The Gold Diggers*!

Their stunning wedding Inglewood House and Spa was nothing short of magical, beginning with a beautifully touching ceremony led by Duncan Fleming Celebrant!

Craig and I go way back as old school friends, and though we hadn’t seen each other in a few years, I can honestly say—he hasn’t changed a bit! But what truly made their ceremony extra special was the exchange of rings. Craig and Diana share a passion for gold hunting across this beautiful country, and with the treasures they’ve unearthed, they had their wedding bands custom-made. Now *that’s* a love story forged in gold!

A huge congratulations to this wonderful couple! And an even bigger THANK YOU to Craig and Diana for allowing my wife and me to share in such a memorable day.

Wishing you both a lifetime of adventure, love, and golden moments ahead! 💛

🚨 **MISSION: SURVIVE DAVIDS BIG HIKE** 🚨

Alright, folks—this is it. I'm about to embark on a hike so BIG, so CHALLENGING, that even my legs are preemptively filing for early retirement.

But here’s the deal—this isn’t just a personal battle against blisters, questionable trail snacks, and my own terrible life choices. This hike has a **bigger purpose**, and I need YOU to help me make it count.

👉 **How You Can Help:**

1️⃣ **Donate** – Every penny goes to an incredible cause, helping Cancer Research UK
2️⃣ **Spread the Word** – Share this post. Tell your friends. Tell your nan. Tell the random person standing next to you in Tesco.
3️⃣ **Cheer Me On** – Whether it’s a like, a comment, or a motivational message reminding me that “pain is temporary,” your support means everything (especially when my legs say otherwise).

So, will I conquer this challenge? Will I emerge victorious, standing proud at the finish line? Or will I collapse dramatically for the sake of social media engagement? **Either way, it’ll be entertaining—so get involved!**

Hit the link, chip in, and let’s make every step count! 💪

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Giving Page. This year I am taking part in Big Hike and completing the Half Marathon distance. I only have a few weeks to get prepared so Please donate to my Giving Page and help me take big steps to beat cancer.

A little preview from yesterday’s wedding at the Beautiful Kingswood Hotel Burntisland! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Thankfully the bride and her daughter buried a sausage at the venue the night before to bring us great weather on the wedding day! It was a scorcher ☀️

It was an amazing day with you and your wonderful family and friends ❤️

Smash that Like button for them!

Today I did something a bit different (and very unexpected).

My daughter was due to have her photos taken for our Galaday programme, she is a rainbow fairy queen 🌈🧚👸and was a little excited. We had to be there for 13:00pm but due to a mix up the photographer hadn't arrived.

Who stepped in? Yep, I rushed back to the house to pick up my gear 📸 and back to the church ⛪️ to save the day!

It wasn't my usual clientele, they were so much better behaved than the typical bride and groom, maybe its because they hadn't had any alcohol *Yet 😂

Anyway, I can’t share pictures! They will be sent to the gala day committee so they can choose ones for the programme!

What a pleasure to have been involved even if it wasn’t planned ❤️

Album Collection day! 🤵‍♂️👰
