Summer Wedding at The Byre at Inchyra

Hey, I'm Claire

and I’m a country girl at heart.

‘C’ for cameras, creativity, colour, countryside, collies, coffee, cheese, castles, and last but by no means least, my children – all things close to my heart. I live near the beach with my two kiddos, my husband Tim, and our little border collie. When I’m not out at weddings, I’m all about family time, and you’ll usually find us at the beach or in the garden.

 

I’m so glad you’re here and considering my work! It’s a thrill to share my passion for people, places, and photography with you. I’ve photographed weddings now for around 11 years, and it’s been one of the greatest adventures of my life. I’d love to hear all about your wedding plans, whether you’re getting married right here in East Lothian, or somewhere else in bonnie Scotland.

East Lothian Wedding Photographer | Scotland UK

For over a decade now I’ve had the privilege of photographing weddings all over Scotland and beyond, being more than happy to travel for a love story. Capturing people’s best days, the in-between moments full of love, the smiles and hugs and laughter, is so rewarding, and I couldn’t imagine doing anything else.
