Arran Portrait – Portraits at Home

Then I was then honoured to be invited to Arran to capture Colin’s 70th birthday celebrations. Colin’s family had travelled from all over the world for this special occasion. After taking the boat over to the island, Emma very graciously came to collect me from the ferry. We then travelled through some ‘biblical’ rain to get to Colin’s village. Unfortunately we had hoped to take pictures in and around various Arran landmarks but the weather ruled that out, so we made do with indoors.

As luck would have it, just as we were wrapping up, the weather broke. We managed to get some shots outside on the village beach where the whole family grew up and got some cracking shots of Colin and Elizabeth looking out to sea.

A lovely family and a great occasion to be a part of.

Portraits at home – Paisley Portriat

A wee break from the weddings with a couple of portraits. First we have the beautiful little Neve photographed at her home in Paisley. What an absolute cutie and so well behaved too. As with all our portrait clients we recommend that,  rather than get all dressed up and drag yourself off to the phony studio environment – you should relax and let us come to you.

That way any changes of clothes or toys required and the general familiar environment helps puts kids at ease. It is also a lovely way to ‘bookmark’ that point in your life too. The context of a home portrait doesn’t seem that valuable until a few years later – that couch, that wallpaper, those toys etc.
