“I fell in love with her courage, her sincerity, and her flaming self respect. And it’s these things I’d believe in, even if the whole world indulged in wild suspicions that she wasn’t all she should be. I love her and it is the beginning of everything.” F. Scott Fitzgerald

A beautiful love story for your Friday afternoon! Luisa & BJ’s stunning wedding at Achnagairn House

CandySnaps proudly presents Sugar8

Caroline — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 09:33:15 +0000

Wooooohoooooo! CandySnaps is proud to announce a collaboration with Eileen of Sugar8 videography to bring you authentic super 8 filming of your wedding day! Sugar8 can be booked as an add on now to your photography package! A short but sweet record of your special day set to some of your fave tunes! Sugar8 explains: ‘ Of course there are plenty of options for boring cheesy wedding videos that are 2 hours long, shot in unflattering light with cheesy music that you will watch when you first get married, then it’ll never see the light of day again. Who wants that? Why not have something that looks beautiful and timeless shot in the flattering soft glow that super 8 film gives.
Using film gives a depth and warmth of colour that can’t be recreated in digital. Something that’s a nice concise length set to a few of your favourite songs. Something that will still be getting watched generations from now. Awhh. Imagine your Grandchildren watching your wedding video and thinking how cool and beautiful you both looked’

Check out the lovely Eileen’s website for details on pricing!

Happy Monday X

Susan & Robin

Caroline — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 10:58:04 +0000

Sometimes you get to photograph a wedding and it’s just magical. Susan & Robin’s wedding was one of those. On a very cold but beautifully bright day in November I was off to Mhor in the heart of the Trossachs National Park in Scotland. I was totally blown away by the beauty of the landscape on the drive there and the autumnal colours of the trees and the stillness of the loch. And then there were Susan and Robin. Such a sweet and gorgeous couple and I just had the best of time capturing their little intimate family celebration of their wedding day. I so want to go back to Mhor and eat some of that beautiful cake!

Happy Tuesday lovebirds!

12 days til christmas!

Fiona & Alex

“According to Aristophanes in Plato’s The Banquet, in the ancient world of legend there were three types of people.
In ancient times people weren’t simply male or female, but one of three types : male/male, male/female or female/female. In other words, each person was made out of the components of two people. Everyone was happy with this arrangment and never really gave it much thought. But then God took a knife and cut everyone in half, right down the middle. So after that the world was divided just into male and female, the upshot being that people spend their time running around trying to locate their missing half.”
― Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

I think Fiona and Alex have found their missing half. Here is their beautiful wedding at Blairquhan Castle with gorgeous flowers by the fantastic Lotte and Bloom!

Happy Wednesday lovebirds

Thinking of you
There’s lightning bolts in my chest
I know you know
I think our love is the best

If you have to stay
I’ll be on the water
Catching the next wave
You can meet me where it breaks

Dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream

I’ll be on the water – Akron/Family
