Scotland Photographer - Family Portraits and Weddings
I’m a professional wedding, portrait and commercial photographer based at Loch Lomond, working across the Central Belt of Scotland, including Glasgow, Stirling and Falkirk.
I photograph weddings, relaxed family portraits and commercial projects for businesses, charities and organisations, creating natural, authentic images that feel real and unforced.
If you’re camera-shy, you’re not alone. My approach is calm, straightforward and people-focused, with an emphasis on candid moments, gentle direction and keeping things enjoyable from start to finish.

Wedding photography in Scotland
I photograph weddings across Scotland, with a particular focus on Loch Lomond, the Trossachs, Glasgow and Stirling.
My wedding photography is storytelling-led, combining natural portraits with candid moments as the day unfolds. I work quietly, letting the day flow without endless interruptions, so couples can spend time with their guests while I capture the atmosphere, emotion and detail.
From lochside venues to city weddings in Glasgow and Edinburgh, I adapt my approach to suit the day, the setting and the people.
If you’re planning a wedding in Scotland and want relaxed, emotional photography that reflects how the day actually felt, I’d love to hear about your plans.
Family portrait photography
I offer family portrait photography across the Central Belt of Scotland, including Glasgow, Loch Lomond, Stirling and Falkirk.
Families book me for natural, outdoor or at-home photo sessions that feel more like time together than a formal shoot. Gardens, parks, holiday accommodation and meaningful locations all work beautifully, and people tend to relax much more than in a studio environment.
I regularly photograph extended families, visiting relatives, milestone birthdays and multi-generation groups, and yes, pets are very welcome too.
Commercial photography for businesses and charities
Alongside weddings and portraits, I work on commercial photography projects across Scotland.
I photograph teams, food and drink, accommodation, tourism experiences, events and behind-the-scenes activity, helping businesses and charities present themselves clearly and confidently.
Because I also run a marketing consultancy, I understand how photography is actually used, on websites, social media, press releases, funding applications and campaigns. That means the images are created with purpose, not just aesthetics.
Many of my commercial projects are based around Loch Lomond and the Central Belt, but I work across Scotland when required.
Why work with me
I’m based in Loch Lomond, Scotland’s first National Park, and the landscape, light and sense of place continue to shape how I see and photograph people.
I’ve spent years working with couples, families, businesses and organisations, helping them feel at ease and confident in front of the camera. The aim is always the same: honest photography that accurately represents people.
I’m also the author of 101 Things to Do in Loch Lomond and the Trossachs, which combines local knowledge with photography and storytelling, reflecting how closely my work is connected to the places I photograph.
