Wedding Photography Outer Hebrides | Maggie + Do | Amhuinnsuidhe Castle
The Isle of Harris was my destination last Friday, for the wedding of Lewis couple Maggie and Do, who chose the beautiful Amhuinnsuidhe Castle as the venue for their vintage-themed wedding. Set at the end of a long, single track road, beside the sea, it proved the perfect location and the weather stayed dry so the ceremony could be held outside. Maggie, a hairdresser in Stornoway, looked absolutely stunning thanks to her colleagues from the salon and everyone had a fantastic day, culminating in a dance led by Lewis band Costello.
The next day, the happy couple jetted off to the Seychelles for a fabulous honeymoon and they texted me to say they are having a wonderful time. Please feel free to leave a comment for Maggie and Do, as I’m sure they will be logging on at some point, to see the photos.

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.
The most romantic wedding i’ve ever attended! Well done Lynne, beautiful photos once again….Maggie and Do i think you should have your anniversary party at the castle each year, i could get used to that level of care!
We are delighted with your pictures lynne…….. and in the way you managed to capture our very special day for us!!:)
