Wedding Photography Skeabost Hotel, Isle of Skye | Caitriana + Gavin
Last weekend I shot the lovely wedding of Skye lass Caitriana MacPherson and her fiance Gavin Deeprose from Glasgow, at Skeabost Hotel. Caitriana grew up in Eynort, and now lives and works in Glasgow, with Gavin, who is a lawyer.
A marquee was erected in the gardens at the back of the hotel, on the banks of a loch, and Caitriana did a fantastic job of decorating it with gorgeous vintage look details – that’s why I have included lots of shots of the interior. Her stunning flowers were from fabulous florist, Donald, at Loch Duich Plants and they were perfect for the look Caitriana wanted.
Despite the wet weather, everyone had a fabulous time, especially on the dance floor – it was pretty full all night.
Caitriana and Gavin have now jetted off to Australia on honeymoon, via Singapore, but please feel free to leave a message for them below. Here are a few of my favourites from the day.

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.
