I'm an Edinburgh family, small business and small wedding photographer.

No studio stuff here - just natural, fun photos taken in your home or out in the wilds of Edinburgh and the surrounding areas. I specialise in taking natural, fun photos of families, children and babies as well as photos for small businesses and small weddings. When it comes to family photos I love to capture a bit of your every day life, because these are the moments that mean the most.

Have I ever mentioned that my very first job was working in a vintage clothing shop? I ironed the clothes and got paid per piece, which was a bit grim if I’m honest, and I also used to make earrings out of old broken vintage necklaces and sold them there. But I digress!!! Becc of Scotland's Favourite Vintage Market! hired me to take photos at her AMAZING vintage market The Biscuit Factory (EDIN) and I enjoyed taking these so much. Brought me right back 🥹👚🎩🐕👗👠

I’ve been chucking a bit of 35mm film into the mix on some of my weddings and I’m sometimes a bit slow on the tick getting the film processed 😬. Here are a few from F+N’s lovely wee wedding in August.

In stark contrast to the current weather, the sun was SUNNY on this particular morning a couple weeks ago. You know, that low autumnal-approaching-winter sun that gets right in your eyes. We made the best of it thought and these guys were great sports and it all turned out fine. If you’re looking to get some family photos with lovely autumny colours and just in time for Christmas I have availability in November.

I’m in a strong position to feel cynical about love. But every couple I’ve photographed (and there have been so many this year 🥹) has helped chip away at my cynicism, and these two did double time on that front. They arrived from Australia so loved up and ready to celebrate their 5th wedding anni with some photos and some fun, and I’m grateful to have met them ♥️

On this very wet day, some portraits in the sunshine. The lovely Jimmy Crombie is a staple of the High Street and just a really nice chap and he happily let me take a few portraits of him for my street photography series for Vintage Vibes. The “Icons of Edinburgh” project is aiming to celebrate the personalities, individuality and wonderful diversity of Edinburgh’s over-60s. Please check out Vintage Vibes Edinburgh to learn more.

Jimmy really is an icon, I loved the five minutes we spent together 📸

Now THIS is how you make an entrance!

Meet Jimmy, 73, our latest Icon of Edinburgh, a familiar face on Edinburgh's streets and someone who certainly knows how to stand out.

We just love Jimmy's incredible sense of style, magnificent beard and unmistakable swagger and energy. But there's much more to Jim than just his fabulous fashion choices, born and bred in Edinburgh he is a three-time cancer survivor who has faced some enormous challenges in his life, and yet still brightens up our autumnal city streets!

Thank you for being our latest Edinburgh Icon Jim!

My latest v̶i̶c̶t̶i̶m̶ subject for the street portrait series I’m doing in conjunction with Vintage Vibes is Anne. I often see her hightailing it to a class at her gym, it was lovely to have a blether and take some photos.
