Vanilla Moon Photography

I have worked as a qualified, professional photographer for over two decades. I was 14 when my dad handed me my first camera and ignited a passion for photography which would accompany me around the world. At first I'd spend hours photographing steam trains on a preserved railway near my home. Later as a photojournalist working for some of the UK’s biggest newspapers, I’d have a grandstand view of history in the making. There'd be celebrities to photograph... sporting heroes to capture... foreign places to visit... Now life’s changed. I’m a proud mum of two based in the Scottish Borders. I’ve not lost that powerful urge to take the perfect image, the tender portrait that tells a life story, the 'moment in time' photograph to cherish for years to come. Life is full of precious memories. And capturing them to keep forever, will always be my passion. YOUR WEDDING DAY It’s the biggest day of your lives, when everyone’s eyes are on you. That was me once - I was a bride too. So I know how it passes by in a blur. That’s why capturing it all, to reflect on time and again, is so important. The romance, the laughs, the stolen glances and the solemn moments. The soft colours of the flowers, a tiny detail on a dress… I also know you need space to enjoy your day. It’s your wedding, after all. I love to come up with fresh ideas to make your wedding photographs unique and special to you both. My years of working as a photographer and editor for major newspapers means I know what makes a show-stopping, eye catching, once in a lifetime shot. It's your big day. Together we'll make it even more memorable.
