Documentary Wedding Photographer based in Edinburgh, Scotland
An expert of natural and authentic wedding photography. As a professional photographer, I capture genuine emotions with a documentary-style approach - focusing on narrative storytelling. I care about your wedding or elopement as much as you do, appreciating the history, art, and architecture, as well as the natural beauty of Scotland.
I cover weddings, elopements and portraits across Scotland, from Edinburgh to the Highlands and Islands - including iconic destinations such as Glen Etive, Glencoe, Rothiemurcus Estate and Achmelvich Beach. With over 15 years’ experience, I’m inspired by Scotland’s rich history and stunning landscapes - blending these elements to create timeless and unique photographs, allowing the authentic moments to unfold.

Style
Natural and individual; I like to reflect the personalities of couples, through my photography - in an authentic way. I document the flow and mood of each event in a relaxed way.
-
Approach
It’s not only about capturing the best photographs possible; the narrative, including location, is considered as important. It is also a priority to me to understand how the experience feels throughout. I’m here to provide advice and support along the way.

Advice
From finding perfect viewpoints, to making the day your own, I have been through the journey with many couples and can offer my own insights. Most of all, your wedding should be an enjoyable day with family and friends, or even just the two of you. I am here to ensure you have an amazing time with beautiful and honest photography to look back on.

About Robbie
With 15 years’ experience, I’ve covered over 500 weddings and events while working with Duke Scotland from 2009 onwards, and continue to collaborate on projects - offering couples and commercial clients the flexibility of having up to two photographers. I currently specialise in weddings, elopements and portraits; I’m also interested in landscape, architectural and product photography. I was born in Perthshire and have lived in Scotland all my life. My design background includes studies in Landscape Architecture at the ECA and Product Design in Glasgow. I’m dedicated to capturing your personal stories and look forward to hearing your creative ideas - bringing them to life through beautiful galleries, albums and framed prints.

Inspiration
I value integrity, transparency, and going the extra mile. My work is influenced by photography icons such as W. Eugene Smith, whose legacy speaks for itself, and Philip-Lorca diCorcia, whose vibrant colour film photography and ability to capture candid moments, like in his 'Heads' series, bring me a lot of joy. I’m also inspired by Elliott Erwitt, particularly his quote: 'I am obsessed with dogs—because they remind me of people, but with more hair.' Other photographers who currently inspire me include Nadav Kander, Martin Schoeller, and Phil Penman, whose work I enjoy following on Instagram.
