Gayle & Alisdair 21st June Mar Hall
We had a great day filming Gayle & Alisdairs wedding and reception at the wonderful Mar Hall. They had lots of really wonderful touches such as a String Quartet and an old Glasgow Corporation Bus for taking their guests to the Hotel. A lovely couple and a lovely day!

My New Venture
I made this, and the response I got was so good, that I have decided to start selling them. Basically, the Glidetrack gives you lovely smooth flowing shots, that look as if they came straight from a Hollywood movie. Traditionaly, this would involve a really lasge setup that consists of a track and a camera tripod on wheels. All very cumbersome and not compact in the least. The Glidetrack takes up next to no space, and can be set up in seconds and moved just as quickly. Have a look!

Andrew & Jennifer 3rd May 2008
We had another great day filming Andrew & Jennifers wedding up at Norton House Hotel in Edinburgh. Once again, we got lucky with the weather and they were able to have their ceremony on the lawn which made for a lovely setting.

Bracken & Julia 26th April Cromlix House
We had a simply fantastic day filming Bracken & Julias wedding at Cromlix House which is up near Dunblane. Once again, we were lucky with the weather, as the forecast had been for showers all day. Cromlix House is genuinely one of the nicest venues we have had the pleasure of working at and the staff were all incredibly nice. All in all, a Perfect day!

Another new addition
I made myself a tripod mounted dolly that means we can now produce some seriously arty gliding moves.

I am actually considering starting to sell these as the response
has been really good
Here is a clip showing it in action.

Coming Soon!
By June we are finally (it’s been a LONG wait) going to be able to offer the option of Blu Ray Discs to our customers. What does this mean I hear you say. The easiest way I can put it is with a picture.

Currently although filmed in High Definition, the disc we give you is in PAL SD(720 x 576). Blu Ray means we will be able to give you a disc that plays at 1080p. The jump in quality this will offer will be incredible. The larger image is made up of more pixels therefore, you get much more detail in the image. We are already thrilled with the footage we are getting from our Canon XH-A1’s. To see it delivered at it’s full potential will be just amazing. Exciting Times!
To be able to play these discs, you need either a Sony PS3 or a Blu-Ray DVD Player, and a FULL HD tv.
