AFTER breakfast Mikey starts revamping the space left by the old woodburner. The ceiling is a particular mess and never been level, so he has a fair job on his hands.

I have a photo job in Luss and pack my gear. It’s a wedding with na small-ish group of 25 guests and I have to capture folks arriving, the ceremony, a drinks reception and a boat trip. I generally only do weddings with just the couple, celebrant and, at most, a couple of witnesses, so this is a little out my comfort zone.

When I get there I find the ceremony room pretty dim with windows behind the space, so everything’s back lit…thank fuck I brought a strobe and soft box. This is when I find the real value in my recent switch from Nikon DSLR kit to Sony mirrorless. Saved the day!

Then couple are cool and it’s a nice crowd. I’m on the job for a good three or four hours and get home late afternoon.

Mikey’s made good progress with the walls/ceiling/floor in the woodburner space. I hit the studio and dump the photos onto a hard drive and start going through to select the best ones….
