Cinnamon Fringe. Commercial photography for hair-dressing salons.

The owner of this salon based on Ellon was having a new website created by Grampian Website Design. We were asked over by the designer to create images of the busy atmosphere and friendly chit-chat that persisted through out the day between hair dresser and client. We created both colour and black and white images for them to give it that 'sixties' feel to fringe -edge hair dressing!

Cairndaisy Bed & Breakfast, Muir of Ord. Guest house Photography, Beauly.

Cairndaisy is one of the little gems you only ever seem to find out about through referral. Set in some of the finest countryside here in the Highlands, close to all the sights but far enough out for peace and quiet. The owner is renowned for her baking, the rooms have a standard beyond most with a very high attention to detail and you might even get a tune from a master piper if you ask! They approached the studio for new images as their new website being created by Inverness Online had more opportunity to sell rooms, food and surroundings..

Ben Loyal Hotel, Tongue. Hotel photography, Tongue.

It seems when you get to Tongue it is impossible to go any further north in the British Isles... Jurassic coastlines, Smoo Cave with its history and of course the Ben standing proud in a vast ocean of moorland stretching as far as the eye can see. Many do the run from Ullapook to John a Groats, stopping in the Ben Loyal hotel. Fine food, comfortable beds and a place to rest before continuing on the next stage of the journey. The studio was asked to create new images for them following considerable decoration and for a new website.

Beach Cottage, Inverness. Holiday let photography, Allanfearn, Inverness

A complete refurbishment took place prior to the launch of this new boutique bed and breakfast, nothing spared, the owners attention to detail beyond excellence. Top this with stunning views of the Kessock bridge and Beauly Firth, dolphins launching themselves into the air directly opposite and you have the recipe for an incredible stay in Inverness. We were asked by the owner to create images for the new website.

Ard Choille Cottage, Mallaig. Holiday let photography, Mallaig.

 Ard Choille Cottage, an historic croft that has been renovated and extended has a very special and unique selling point... if you like Harry Potter or steam trains.  Yes, the train made famous by the books goes past the bottom of the garden - a fantastic site of steam and coal smoke as it draws in to the nearby station of Mallaig.  Fine furnishings and a kitchen that would equally be at home on a spread for home and country, this cottage needed  a new website to do it justice.  Your Reflection were asked following a recommendation by another Holiday cottage owner to provide imaged of the property and its views out to Rum.

Ardmour Cottage, Isle of Skye. Holiday let photography, Broadford isle of skye.


A five star holiday cottage with views out to sea and an interior that sets a standard to many a holiday home owner.  Fine furnishings and a saffron walled bathroom with roll top bath that would be at home in any period property!  Your Reflection Studio were asked by the owners who also run a local bed and breakfast to provide a new set of images due to a forth coming website upgrade.  This also included wading across a burn to get a view of the property with the Cullins in the background!

Kiltaraglen House, Isle of Skye. Guest house Photography, Portree, Isle of Skye.


Your Reflection Studio, Commercial Photography Packages for the Hotel, BNB and Guest House Owner.
Kiltaraglen House
A stunning house, with views to the mountains overlooking Portree and a side business of wildlife tours into the seas around Skye. If you're into walking and wildlife, then this is a fantastic place to stay for a holiday - fine food from a very proud owner, home from home comforts and a feeling of being part of the family, awaits anyone thinking of staying here in Skye. Your Reflection Studio were asked to pop in and look at improving the images they already had for the their website - we ended up reshooting the whole place: from an hilarious shoot of the family cooking a very hearty breakfast to capturing guests at dinner.  Then there were the surroundings – the brilliant blue skies,  clear of cloud (having driven through a blizzard in Kyle to get there!!) for the frontage, the bedrooms and function rooms.
