For my day job I work as an Air Traffic Control Instructor and I’m fortunate to meet lots of amazing students that come through the college each year, as a result I’m privileged to shoot a lot of their weddings as well as those from within the air traffic community and their families and friends. Lesley and Paul’s wedding came from a recommendation from Lesley’s brothers fiancee who is a Controller in the Shetland Islands and whose wedding I’m really looking forward to shooting next year up in Scatsta. So in June I was fortunate enough to travel up to Scotland to shoot Lesley and Paul’s wedding at the Parkville Hotel in Glasgow. Everyone was so kind and helpful, Lesley and Paul were brilliant and had some great ideas for photos and also special thanks to Lesley’s mum and dad who kindly chauffeured me around for the weekend. The couple booked The David Livingstone Centre in Blantyre where the famous explorer was born for the formal shots. A really nice venue where we dodged the showers and were blessed with some glorious sunshine. All in all the perfect day.
