• About Robbie

    With 15 years of experience, I’ve covered around 750 weddings and events while working with Duke. Working alongside Dom since 2009, we continue to collaborate on projects, offering couples and commercial clients the flexibility of having two photographers available for events across Scotland. I currently specialise in weddings, elopements and portraits; I’m also interested in landscape, architectural, interior and product photography. I was born in Perthshire and have lived in Scotland all my life. My creative design background includes studies in Landscape Architecture in Edinburgh and Product Design in Glasgow. Robert Adam Photography is dedicated to capturing your personal stories and I look forward to hearing your creative ideas, bringing them to life through beautiful galleries, albums, prints and framed presentations.

  • 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. Additionally, the rich history, landscapes, and architecture of Scotland naturally influence my creative process.

  • Style

    Natural and individual; I like to reflect the personalities of the couple, through my photography - in an authentic way. I document the flow and mood of each wedding in a nonintrusive and laidback manner.

  • Approach

    It’s not simply about capturing the best photographs; the narrative, including locations, is crucial. It is important to me to understand how the client feels. I am here to provide advice and support at every step of the journey.

  • Advice

    From advice on the perfect locations, to making the day your own, I have been through the journey with many couples so 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 for years to come.

  • Sasha and Mark, Mansfield Traquair

    “From the warm twinkling ceremony to the crazy confetti group shots; the moments, to tearing up the dance floor; shots of friends and family from near and far adorning their glad rags; to the kilts and big bold hats and feathers: Robbie caught it all and more. The pictures show all the emotions, colours and details in every frame and looking through the shots is like re-living the day over and over again. 1000% Recommend!!”

  • Lynsey and Craig, The Caves

    “Robbie...you were our wedding photographer and you took the first photos of us as newlyweds. You took our first family photographs, which hang so proudly in our home, then you took more family photos when we welcomed our second child (these are without doubt our happiest batch yet). You know us as a couple and as a family. We love you, Robbie! Your skill, dedication, patience and creativity are like no other. Without a doubt you are our family photographer - we could never have anyone else. Thank you for all of our happy moments captured so beautifully!”
