Wedding Photography Eilean Donan Castle | Amanda + Ali

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.
