Scottish Based Wedding & Elopement Photographer

Claire Juliet Paton Profile Image


‘C’ is 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 in a little cottage in East Lothian 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 seeing what we can grow in the garden.


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. This is my full-time job, so please don’t hesitate to get in touch today and let’s chat.

Josh Is The Wedding Film Guy

Thinking of booking your photographer and videographer together? I’m so pleased to offer a film maker via the wonderful Josh! He is many things to me; good pal, neighbour, bro-in-law, and a talented colleague. Josh is available to create short highlight films, cinematically capturing the best of your event through film. He’s my top recommendation and we’d love to work together to tell your story…
