Donna & Robin's wedding - The Bay Hotel, Petticur, Kinghorn

Donna & Robin chose the brand new Bay Hotel in Petticur Bay for their evening wedding on what was supposed to be the longest day of the year....... Unfortunately the weather was more January-like rather than June!

Robin arrived with his young lad..And looked pretty cool, calm and collected.And the bride and her family were actually early! The main colour of this wedding was burnt orange.Beautiful burnt orange calla lillies. And one nervous bride pre-ceremony!

But all was well when Donna married Robin.
Afterwards the newlyweds braved their bridalsuite balcony for like............2 seconds!
So we did their couples session in their bridal suite and around the hotel interior.
My favourite shot of the day.
Lots of cuddling and kissing throughout the evening! It was a very laid back, relaxed wedding just what the couple wanted.

And how COOL was it to see a choreographed first dance!!

Catherine & Paul's wedding - Queensferry Lodge, North Queensferry

Catherine & Paul had a gorgeous day at the Queensferry Lodge recently.

Paul had a giggle with his Best Man before the ceremony...but he was anxiously awaiting his bride....who turned up looking gorgeous!And they had a right giggle together during the ceremony! After the ceremony and mingling time, the three of us shot off in the car down to North Queensferry pier for some smooching and kissing and hugging and cuddling.... they did, not me! The weather was all over the place; sunny, then rainy, then sunny again... so bizarre for June!

Back at the hotel, we were ready for the meal...

And the kids were ready with the bubbles!
And as for the speeches.....
My favourite of the day; it's amazing what shots you can find in just a hotel corridor!

The newlyweds will be enjoying the delights of Mauritius as we speak; see you on your return guys!

Nadine & James' "Bliss" session

Nadine & James' go down in NMP history as being the most amazing couple for letting me do the craziest of things at a photographic session!

The newlyweds were in the Bay not only to see the results of the wedding day imagery but also ready to get back in their wedding gear for their post wedding "Bliss" session!

I seeked out the most amazing scenery for these pair and the weather TOTALLY played ball.

Nadine put on her stunning silk Lyndsey Fleming dress, James got back in his kilt.

And they went along with my daft idea of wading out onto the seabed to some driftwood.... little did I realise that the driftwood was in the middle of sinking sand.....

I lost my shoes when I sunk up to my knees, we stunk to high heaven but boy was it fun! And we got the most amazing images, I can easily see one of these getting blown up big for the studio!

Many MANY thanks to Nadine and James for going for a totally amazing "Bliss" session! These sessions are available to all NMP newlyweds!

And even if you didn't get photographed on your wedding day by myself, you can easily book up a "Back Again" session, sinking sand or not, you choose!

Audrey & Jim's wedding - Part Two

After cutting their amazing cake...everyone sat down for their meal. If you didn't know that Audrey & Jim had a great sense of humour, by the meal you would have realised! All the table names were Spongebob Squarepants characters; my Jack would have been in heaven, he loves eating crabby patties!And then it was onto the first dance...and then the dancing; their guests rocked the dancefloor especially this young man, who thought himself quite the young John Travolta!

The older ones showed him how to do it as well!And then Audrey & Jim asked everyone out to the front of the castle for the bouquet toss...which preceded a fantastic fireworks display!

And so there goes another Fernie Castle wedding! Looking at my diary, I have a wedding at this venue on the first weekend in June for the past 3 years in a row now; so who's booking me for next June at Fernie Castle?!

Many thanks to Ioan who came from Wales to assist me.
