It was great to be back photographing another wonderfully intimate City Chambers Edinburgh wedding ceremony.
Sarah and Kenny chose Edinburgh’s leading civil wedding venue in the heart of the Old Town.
I’ve met Kenny and Sarah a few times over the years.
They are mutual friends with Tiffany and William, whose wedding I previously photographed at Norton House Hotel.

SarahJonathon was absolutely amazing on our wedding dayJonathon was absolutely amazing on our wedding day - he had an extremely calm, organised, unobtrusive and professional manner which was invaluable on a rather stressful day! He was so knowledgeable in terms of recommending the best light and locations for our various photos, and was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the day. We received our photos in a very timely manner and with an amazing choice of colour or black and white. We love each and every one of them and our friends and families love them too - commenting on what a fantastic job Jonathon had done in capturing every moment and every tiny detail. We are delighted with our photos, and would highly recommend Jonathon for anyone considering wedding photography.

After your ceremony, step outside to be greeted by the iconic backdrop of the Royal Mile, the perfect setting for truly unique wedding photos.
Cobblestone streets, historic buildings, and the city skyline add drama and charm, especially in the golden glow of summer.
From intimate portraits to playful group shots, the setting is perfect for capturing your joy.
Marrying at City Chambers also keeps things fun and relaxed. Its central location makes it easy for guests to explore the city before or after your ceremony.

Civil ceremony in The Alexander Suite
My day started in The Alexander Suite of Edinburgh City Chambers with beautiful bride Sarah and her proud Dad.
Sarah looked incredible in a long gold dress, her hair styled with soft, loose waves; she looked so happy and relaxed.
Walking arm-in-arm with her Dad, carrying a beautiful bridal bouquet of white flowers, Sarah made her entrance and walked down the aisle.
Kenny couldn’t take his eyes off his Sarah!
Sarah and Kenny, joined by both sets of parents, exchanged wedding vows and wedding rings in their City Chambers Edinburgh wedding marriage ceremony.
Then they shared their first kiss as husband and wife, a wonderful moment to capture.
Newlywed photos in the Old Town
After some formal photos of Sarah and Kenny with their parents, I took them for their newlywed photoshoot.
We started with a photograph on the staircase in the City Chambers, right before the impressive stained-glass window, then moved outside.
It was a bit rainy, but that didn’t dampen the mood!
Sarah and Kenny were a delight to photograph, pure naturals in front of the camera as we explored the surrounding area together.
Their newlywed photoshoot felt lovely and relaxed as Sarah and Kenny were so easygoing.
I captured photographs of my bride and groom using the city’s fabulous architecture as an impressive backdrop for the photos.
Our outdoor photos of the newlyweds started around the Quadrangle at City Chambers, across to Parliament Square and on the steps of St Giles’ Cathedral.
The photos of Sarah and Kenny walking hand in hand down the historic Royal Mile in the rain are some of my favourites!
Celebratory drinks at the Radisson Royal Mile Hotel
The final photos of the day were taken at the nearby Radisson Royal Mile Hotel on George IV Bridge, where Sarah, Kenny and their parents enjoyed a celebratory drink.
