I used to wonder if life as a wedding photographer would turn into 'Groundhog Day'.
But no chance, you guys out there are just too imaginative to ever let that happen. I so look forward to those unique twists every bride and groom give to their day. And it's wonderful to see how personal every wedding can be.
So, taking this to the next level here's Sandra and Antony's 'Wedding in the Woods' - stand by to be amazed!
The location in the depths of forest at Marthrown of Mabie was magical - and the thatched Roundhouse was a magnificent setting - lit by candle light. An army of helpers composed of Sandra and Antony's friends and family descended to help with the preparations, and take part in the pre-wedding Highland Games, while the girls headed into Dumfries to Jon Walker's salon.
While the girl's hair was expertly crafted by Jon and his team, back in the forest axe throwing, caber tossing, and heavy lifting to make the onlookers wince provided scope for some fantastic moments to photograph.
Then - hush - as the girls embarked on the most atmospheric bridal entrance I've seen in a long time; along the forest path, through the mist, accompanied by the tones of a lone piper into the roundhouse!
Following a very touching wedding ceremony it was time to party - singing and ceilidhing the night away.
Congratulations Sandra and Antony - your day was truly unique, visually inspiring and a treat for my camera!
