EDINBURGH & EAST LOTHIAN WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

Weddings, Wobbly Knees & Wild Dance Floors

Hey! I’m Claire, a Scottish wedding + elopement photographer based in East Lothian, just outside of Edinburgh. It’s a privilege to call this magical area of Scotland home – a place where rolling hills and grand houses meet golden beaches. I’m all about capturing the real stuff: belly laughs, happy tears, windswept kisses, and dance floor chaos. Think of me as your calm-in-the-storm, stealthy storyteller, and unofficial confetti wrangler. If you’re planning a day full of love, laughter and fun, I’ll be there with camera in hand, ready to turn it all into joyful, heart-hugging photographs you’ll treasure forever.

While East Lothian is my base, I’m often found roaming the cobbled streets and hidden corners of Edinburgh too—chasing light, dodging the pigeons, and snapping love stories all over this hauntingly beautiful city. Whether you’re tying the knot in a grand old venue, a leafy garden, or a quirky new space, I’d love to hear all about it. Let’s grab a coffee, or jump and a call, and chat about your plans—I’m all ears and always up for a new story to tell, wherever in Scotland it may be!

Testimonials

Kind words

“Claire took the most beautiful photographs of our wedding and we love looking back to relive the day. It was so easy to work with Claire: she communicates quickly and makes you feel at ease…”

Olivia + Andrew, Ellingham Hall

“Claire was so relaxed and discreet on the day, you almost forget you’re being photographed! She also hadn’t worked at our venue before but she had clearly done her research. Highly recommend.”

Kirsty + David, Guardswell Farm

“We are incredibly grateful to Claire for the wondeful photo gallery from our wedding. She was very kind and thoughtful, making us feel calm and comfortable all day.”

Emma + Andrew, The Signet Library
