    Hi and thanks for taking the time to come and look at my photography.

    I'm a full time Wedding & Portrait photographer based in Grangemouth, a central location which is ideal for covering most parts of Scotland and the UK, with Falkirk, Stirling, Perth, Edinburgh & Glasgow all within easy reach.

    I have a very relaxed style and my aim is to make you feel comfortable and look beautiful, creating stylish and natural photographs that will stay with you forever.

    I offer a no obligation, friendly initial meeting for you to view the various sample albums showing real weddings that I have recently shot. There is a choice of modern flush mount and matted albums. Each album is designed by me and hand built to order.

Hay Cris

Those are Professional standard photos fit to be in a glossy magazine, I really trhink the street sceens are exeptionally different from the run of the mill stuf I see alos the Black and white- I love them.

The detail in the white dress and blqack jackets is good with the 300 I wonder if you use D-lighting?

The 700 will give you the tools but if you maintain theat standard of photography in your composition There is no reason you should not keep busy with work.

Regards

John
