Are you planning your big day and need a Balbirnie House wedding photographer?
We truly cannot recommend you guys enough
Jonathon and Claire, we simply cannot put into words what an amazing job you guys did at capturing all the special moments on our big day! We got married in April 2025 at Balbirnie House and the photos/video are absolutely incredible. We are forever thankful we chose you guys to be a part of our wedding
Not only did yous do such a fantastic job on the day, but to take time out your busy schedule to come and photograph my Dad who sadly could not attend the wedding at the last minute and merge him into the photos meant the absolute world to us and every single person that has seen them cannot believe how much it looks like he actually was there!
We truly cannot recommend you guys enough and wish we could do it all again. You both made this part of the day so special and memorable and for that, we cannot thank you guys enough ❤️
All of our love,

Balbirnie House rooms
As an experienced Balbirnie House wedding photographer, we can vouch that options abound for fantastic photo opportunities, whatever the size of your wedding.
There is a range of rooms, each with a unique feel and charm.
The Bedrooms
The bedrooms at Balbirnie House have not been forgotten in terms of style and elegance.
The 31 guest rooms balance period style with luxury furnishings matched with modern amenities.
The rooms’ natural light and spaciousness make them ideal for pre-wedding reportage, capturing every element of your preparations.
The Long Gallery
The Long Gallery is one of Balbirnie House Hotel Scotland’s most central rooms, in the heart of the original Grade A-listed Georgian house.
This room is striking for ceremonies, with a beautiful architectural balance combining arches and a vaulted ceiling.
Natural light floods in from the beautiful lunette windows.
This intimate ceremony location can hold up to 100 guests and 90 at Christmas.
At Christmas time, a splendidly decorated tree adds the wow factor.
The Orangery
The Orangery is the Millennium addition that blends holistically with the Main House while incorporating original features.
It adds a truly modern feel to a historical setting.
The incredible mirrored, tinted-glass ceiling combines with the floor-to-ceiling Georgian-style windows to bathe the room in tranquil light.
The Gardens
The Gardens are an unmissable part of any event and are a Balbirnie House wedding photographer’s delight.
Whether appreciated through the large, magnificent Georgian windows during the winter months or actively enjoyed for Spring and Summer weddings, these well-manicured gardens are a photographer’s delight, offering a unique, picturesque setting for your wedding.
On good weather days, weddings can take place on one lawn, with an adjacent lawn available for your drinks reception.
Enjoy your drink of choice against the splendid Georgian backdrop.
Whatever the feel of your wedding, the gardens are ideal for photo backdrops.
Elegant hedgerows balanced with mature trees and interspersed with beautiful beds mean we are spoilt for choice.
The pathways meandering through the grounds enable you to escape to a private area just seconds from the main building.
The Staircase
As your discerning Balbirnie House wedding photographer, we can vouch that The Staircase is a ‘must-use’ location for newlywed photos.
Wonderful, dramatic photos of the bride and groom in a wow-factor location, especially perfect on rainy days.
The Ballroom
The Ballroom is a magnificent place rich with elegance and allure.
Your use of the ballroom includes the ballroom gardens, bar, ballroom lobby, and lobby terrace.
Your ceremony can be held here. For the wedding breakfast, you can seat up to 180 guests; for the evening, you can increase capacity to 250.
The Ballroom is a stunning room for photos, whatever the time of day, but it comes to life after dark with the impressive and enchanting granite-style black dance floor embedded with twinkling light, a truly magnificent setting for a first dance.
Additional colour-changing lights complement the floor, enabling you to create a different feel for your daytime and evening celebrations.
While Balbirnie House offers a range of rooms to suit the style and size of your wedding, if you choose to have your ceremony off-site, you’re spoilt for choice.
The picturesque Markinch Village church is just a five-minute drive.
Also nearby is the equally delightful Falkland Parish Church or St Mary’s R. C. Church in the village of Leslie.
Balbirnie has been a multiple award winner, and it’s easy to see why.

Balbirnie House Wedding Photographer Reviews
We promise to create fabulous photos of you if you hire us as your Balbirnie House wedding photographer, but don’t just take our word for it:
Zoe and BillyJonathon and Claire are the loviest couple.. from our very first communication they made us feel special and were so interested in who we are as people! They tailored everything just for us, and had they not radiated such beauty and kindness, we wouldn’t have even known they were there… and for two people like us who HATE getting photos taken, we had a great time and felt so comfortable!
We got married on 31st December, and they gave up their own celebrations with their families to help us capture ours...
We truly hit the jackpot, and wouldn’t ever trust anyone else to capture our special celebrations and moments!
Please don’t pass up the opportunity on having these two look after your special day! Very trustworthy and fantastic value for money.
Helen and DanielJonathon and Claire - we cannot thank you both enough for being the best - from start to finish, it has been a dream to work with you both! If you are reading this and considering booking - DO IT!!
Thank you both SO MUCH for everything, we absolutely love our wedding pictures and how beautifully you have captured our day and the memories we’ll have forever - we are still so blown away by how perfectly everything turned out and on an absolute high!
We also wanted to say how grateful we are to have had you both at our wedding. You were just such a joy to be around and put us both at ease.
