EXPERIENCE

Natural Wedding Photography in Edinburgh

My natural and relaxed approach to your wedding day is a creative mix of storytelling, editorial and some gentle direction to put you at ease! Of course, we’ll make time for some traditional family group photographs and no more than 20 minutes for your couple portraits.  I’ll have you back with your guests in no time so you don’t miss out on the champagne!

Although every wedding day is unique – there are some key moments that every couple don’t want me to miss. I’ll be there to capture it all and all the little moments in between too!

my Approach

I love what I do, I’ve been photographing weddings for over 12 years! I want my couples to enjoy their day and focus on what’s important to them!

I get excited by pretty light and whether that is soft and airy, colourful and vibrant or dark and moody, I work with my couples to suit their vibe.

I enjoy working with fun loving couples who share my vision for relaxed, happy and bright photographs. If you feel you’re camera shy, fear not, I have lots of wonderful tricks to help you relax with no awkward posing either! Your couple shoot will be natural and fun without the fuss and take no longer than 20 minutes, so you can get back to your guests and family and enjoy the party! If this sounds like you, we’ll be a perfect fit!

I edit with a clean and bright style, I want your photographs to look timeless in years to come but that doesn’t mean you won’t get the odd ‘moody’ shot too.  I like to keep colours true to life, creating a timeless gallery for you to enjoy for years to come.

Lover of soft, natural flattering light – my photographs are vibrant and true to life, natural and timeless!

Time for some fizz! When you’re ready we can take a short walk nearby for some relaxed photographs, just the two of you.  I know you’ll want to enjoy the party with your guests. I promise I won’t keep you away for long. Afterwards, I’ll take this time to photograph your room details and some fun candids of your guests enjoying themselves!
