“Engagement photography captures the essence of your love story, providing cherished memories before your wedding day. It fosters a connection between you and your photographer, easing camera shyness. The images serve as beautiful mementoes and can be used to enhance wedding invitations and save-the-date cards. It’s an opportunity to showcase personalities and create timeless, romantic photos”.

Engagement photography is an incredible investment which you can treasure long into the future.
But these photos only tell part of your love story.
A spectacular engagement photoshoot will provide you with a vivid reminder of those wonderful times which preceded the big day itself – and will serve as an ‘opening chapter’ to the rest of your adventure together.
What are pre-wedding photos?
Pre-wedding engagement photos, sometimes called an ‘e-shoot’, ‘lifestyle photos’ or ‘engagement photography session’, are some of our favourite shoots with couples.
Most couples haven’t ever had their photos taken during a professional photoshoot, which can initially seem daunting to the uninitiated.
Rather than wait until your big day, a pre-wedding photoshoot means we meet for an hour or two for a relaxed, informal photo session as a warm-up for the main event.
As photographers based in Edinburgh, we usually meet our couples in or around the Edinburgh and Lothian areas.

We’ve covered pre-wedding photo sessions at almost every location you can imagine.
Leafy parks and gardens, castles, woodland trails and beaches.
We’re very lucky in the Edinburgh area to have a wide and varied range of locations and backdrops on our doorstep!
During our engagement photography shoot, we’ll have a relaxed time showing you how to get the best shots on your wedding day.
This means that on your big day, we’ll spend our limited time together shooting photos that we know will look fantastic.
The engagement photo session is also a great opportunity to get to know each other better.
We guarantee you’ll leave our brief time together feeling relaxed about the photo aspect of your big day.
As a bonus, you’ll receive all your pre-wedding photos from our shoot via the same download link as your wedding photos.
An excellent way to look back on the days leading up to the best day of your life!
