Classic Portrait Photographer of the Year

Award Winning Photographers

Award Winning Portrait Photography





The annual Master Photographers Associaton Scottish Awards were held yesterday at Dunblane Hydro . We are delighted to announce that we have won the overall title of Scottish Classic Portrait Photographer of the Year 2011.





The winning image which is shown below is our client Don Nedler from Texas USA, whom we were commisioned to photograph in Australia back in March.





The winning image was shot in Black & White, in studio, with a single light to give a classic look. We wanted to create a more edgy feel though with the facial expression. Dark clothing was chosen to compliment the whole look.





Thanks goes to the judges for acknowledging the artistry and creativity of the image, and most of all thanks to Don for commisioning us to begin with.





As well as the overall title of Classic Portrait Photographer of the Year we also received

Reportage Wedding Photographer of the Year - Award of Merit

Amrit & Harneen's Beach Portraits

Award Winning Portrait Photographers
Award Winning Wedding Photographers
You wouldn't think that we'd be working on the beach with the weather we've been having recently, but that's just where we were on Saturday 11th December.
It was on with the winter woolies and cosy boots and onto the sand and rocks at one of Scotland's many beautiful beaches.
Amrit & Harneen have booked us to photograph their wedding next year, and they wanted a Pre-Wedding Portrait shoot so they can show the images at their engagement party in January.
We had a great time on this shoot and we think Amrit & Harneen did too! We captured brilliant informal images as well as some romantic shots of the Bride & Groom to be.
Amrit & Harneen, we hope you love your images as much as we do, here's a little taster of the shoot. We can't wait for the Wedding, you're going to have stunning images!

These are some of the images we shot at a full day shoot for Noluur Cashmere just outside Langholm in the Scottish Borders. The shoot was in an old derelict house with no heating or water so it was just a bit chilly! Thanks to models Craig and Chantelle for braving the cold and doing a fantastic job. Also to Bill who was our chauffeur for the day, ferrying us back and forwards in his 4 wheel drive!

Luci's Photoshoot August 2010, Portrait Photography in Hawick

Portrait Photographers Scottish Borders
Portrait Photographers Hawick

We wanted to do something completely different for Luci, a much more arty and editorial feel to the images. We found these perfect trees which really gave us the look we were hoping for.

It's so satisfying when you already can see the picture you want to create in your head, and then you find the perfect location that matches that image.
