With expertise in diverse venues from historic castles to coastal ceremonies, we prioritise natural interactions and emotional authenticity. Each package includes full-day coverage, pre-wedding consultations, and a curated selection of edited images presented in premium albums or digital formats.
Engagement Sessions
Engagement sessions provide couples with an opportunity to build rapport with our photographers while creating memorable images before their wedding day. These sessions help alleviate camera apprehension and allow us to understand your unique dynamic. Priced from 350, these sessions typically last 1-2 hours and result in 30-50 professionally edited photographs suitable for save-the-date announcements or personal keepsakes.

We specialise in capturing weddings at diverse locations across Scotland and the North of England. Our photographers adapt seamlessly to different environments, from grand estates to remote landscapes, ensuring consistent quality regardless of setting. Travel within these regions is included in our standard packages, with additional support available for coordinating logistics at unique venues.

Our premium wedding albums combine archival-quality materials with bespoke design to create lasting physical records of your celebration. Each album undergoes meticulous curation and layout customisation, with options for leather or contemporary covers. These professionally printed collections ensure your memories remain accessible and tangible for future generations.
