Carolyn & Gillon, Engagement Mugdock Park

Last week I met up with Carolyn and Gillon for their engagement session in Mugdock Park, near Milngavie.  This lovely couple are due to be married in February and I can't wait!! 

Mugdock Park is a special location for Carolyn and Gillon as they have many fond memories of meeting there together when they first started dating, the Castle in particular.  We had lots of fun exploring the beautiful park making the most of our gorgeously sunny day.  Carolyn and Gillon brought along some meaningful props to use, including their personalised monopoly set featured below. 

Enjoy!

Photography Farm: Part Two

Back in September I had the enormous privilege of attending a workshop in London at Photography Farm, this was the first workshop on the farm, brainchild of Photographer Lisa Devlin and event coordinator Jayne Sacco, I think that all involved would agree it was a roaring success and  6 weeks later and I'm still buzzing from such an amazing few days!

I've posted Part One here, this was the morning shoot with real couple Heather and Rob due to be married next year and one of photographer Lisa Devlin's couples.  We were spoilt again with another amazing styled shoot modelled by Kat Williams of Rock n' Roll Bride, if you don't know about her blog, where have you been?!? go check it out!

The theme, executed to perfection by the tea set was 'after the rainbow'.  Dorothy back on her farm in Kansas after her return from Oz, dreaming of somewhere over the rainbow.  Kat had luscious rainbow locks and later on sparkly ruby lips, the magical workings of Elbie van Eeden, matching perfectly with her ruby slippers, customised shoes from Irregular Choice.  Her lush dress was provided by Candy Anthony.

So without further ado I now present to you the wonderful Kat Williams as Dorothy......



































Kat has blogged about our time at the farm here and Lisa Devlin has her fantabulous pictures up here go check them out people. Also you HAVE to check out the lovely little video that FX films produced all about our few days at the farm, you can view it here

I can't thank everyone at the farm enough for such an ace time, I can truly say this workshop has changed how I view my photography, it's inspired and encouraged me to be true to myself. So massive thanks to all the amazing folks that put this all together.....
