On my drive to the office every day, I must confess I’m usually so consumed by pretending to sing like Cher at the 1999 Brit Awards that I barely notice th ..read more

Jennifer Reoch and Jamie Hunter 7th October 2023 Venue | Pollok House, Glasgow Photography | Eve Conroy Photography “Jamie and I are both Scottish, but we met while working at an American summer camp in West Virginia.

We were away at log cabin to celebrate our 9th anniversary together.
