Wedding Photography Duisdale Hotel, Isle of Skye | Elaine & Adam
Nov 14, 10
Yesterday I photographed the wedding of Dumfries-shire lass, Elaine Halliday to her handsome beau Adam from England. The couple live in Hampshire but had a soft spot for the Highlands and married at Eilean Donan Castle with a small group of their closest family and friends present. After the ceremony, everyone returned to Duisdale Hotel on Skye for a sumptuous dinner before having a wee dance to The Hebrideans. The English guests were great fun, particularly Adam’s dad, and they had a good time dancing along with their new Scottish family!
All the best for the future to Elaine and Adam. To any family and friends viewing these photos, please feel free to leave a message below for the happy couple!

STUFF ABOUT ME
I live where I grew up, in the north-west Highlands of Scotland, near the Isle of Skye. I left home at 18 and returned 18 years later and I've worked as a secretary, a marketing assistant, a PR manager, and a local news reporter.
Although I've always loved looking at pictures in magazines, I didn't really get 'into' photography until I was quite old - 36!! Now, five years on, it is my full time occupation and I DO love it, but that is as much from the folk I get to meet and the fun of being part of a wedding day, as it has to do with having a camera in my hand. I just really, really like meeting new people, especially happy people!
Here's another few snippets of info:
At 34 I had an early midlife crisis and took off on a long trip from London to Kenya via Russia, Mongolia, China, Tibet, Nepal, India and several African countries - it was the best year of my life.
I never gave up on the idea of finding 'the one' and a few weeks ago - aged 41! - I walked down the aisle myself.
The second biggest love of my life is Flora - the funniest, cleverest, cutest little doggy ever!
I've climbed Mt Kilimanjaro and done a Marathon - okay, it was the Moonlight Bra Walk Marathon....but 26.2 miles is 26.2 miles!
I love perfume - especially if the bottle is quirky; my latest purchases were Gucci Flora and Balenciaga.
Coming back to my roots is the best thing I've ever done; Edinburgh and London - good times - but now I can have a dog, grow my own veg, breathe clean air and see the sea, every single day.
I love films, magazines and eating - if I can do all three while camped out on the couch or in the bath, I'm happy!
I am quite a soppy romantic, and I really, really, really love my job.
Beautiful photographs Lynne, and it is lovely to see Elaine and Adam. You both look lovely! Hope you both had a fantastic day and enjoyed the cake(s) x
