Loreen & Michael

My goodness! It was a very hot day. My first outdoor wedding at Balbirnie and boy was I cooking. Loreen and Michael must be one of the most laid back couples I have ever photographed, nothing fazed them and they were both very relaxed prior to the cermony. The day went without a hitch. A special thank-you to Michael's Granmother for the lovely chat.

Slow Time Mondays & Curious Fix gig shots

Last month my daughter and I were invited along to watch the Slow Time Mondays play at the Rothes Halls by their lead singer Ross Paterson (Ross teaches my daughter - Erin to play guitar and she is doing very well - thanks Ross!). I thought it would be a good idea to take the camera as I haven't shot a gig in years. We had a great night both bands were very good.

Curious Fix were a mix of early Manic Street Preachers and a wee bit of Placebo. The lead singer 'Pritch' put in a gutsy performance wearing full make-up and managed to escape in one piece!

Slow Time Mondays are a bit more difficult to describe. Ross's voice reminds me of Ian Curtis the legendary Joy Division singer mixed with Caleb from the Kings Of Leon. The music had hints of the Cure (A forest period), Martha and the muffins, The La's and much more. My personal favourite track is Space Invaders (guys, we should shoot a video for it).

Studio and location shots of the Slow time Mondays will be appearing soon - I have included an image from the studio session as a wee taster.

Cheers
