A beautiful love blossomed between Glenda and John, who shared a passion for adventure and life. They chose to elope to Edinburgh and asked us to be their destination wedding photographer.

They discovered a shared dream of exchanging vows in an enchanting place, so they travelled from their hometown in America to the breathtaking landscapes of Scotland to celebrate their love at St Anthony’s Chapel in Edinburgh.

St Anthony’s Chapel, a ruin of an ancient castle, stands proudly on a rocky outcrop of Arthur’s Seat, high above St Margaret’s Loch.

St Anthony’s Chapel’s location offers breathtaking views across Edinburgh, Leith, and the Firth of Forth, a sight that left Glenda and John in awe.

Surrounded by Holyrood Park’s breathtaking natural beauty, it provides a grand and isolated setting, creating a sense of awe and historic charm for your wedding.

Jonathon did a fantastic job with our photos and video. He captured the day perfectly! We got a video of the ceremony, speeches and first 3 dances which Jonathon was able to do himself with cameras set up and it was amazing to see after. I highly recommend Love Wedding Photos and Film and will use them in the future for any photographer needs I have.

Jonathon recently photographed our wedding and we couldn't be happier with the results. Our families were also extremely pleased and have been creating montages and framing the photos. Jonathon put us at ease and was professional and friendly and created lots of shots in such a short space of time. The communication before hand and after was great especially as there was last minute changes to our wedding. I would definitely recommend. Many thanks.

Destination Wedding Photos

Here are some of our favourite destination wedding photos of this fabulous elopement in Edinburgh.

 

Glenda and John sought to rekindle the magic of their commitment by exchanging heartfelt and personal vows in a beautiful ceremony perfectly delivered by Annalese McDermott of Humanist Society Scotland.

Photographing Glenda and John’s intimate celebration was a joy. They were laid-back, content and happy in each other’s company, and their love was profound.

St Anthony’s Chapel, a striking medieval ruin, stands proudly on a rocky outcrop in Holyrood Park, overlooking the city of Edinburgh.

Believed to date back to the 15th century, this mysterious structure was likely built as a chapel serving pilgrims journeying to the nearby Holyrood Abbey.

Its precise origins remain unknown, adding to its air of enchantment and historical intrigue.

The chapel’s commanding location offers breathtaking views over the park’s rolling hills, Arthur’s Seat, and even the distant coastline, creating a dramatic and romantic atmosphere.

For couples seeking a wedding venue with a unique twist, St Anthony’s Chapel provides an extraordinary backdrop.

Though not suited for hosting full ceremonies due to its rugged setting, it is a dream location for unforgettable wedding photography.

The weathered stone walls, framed by lush greenery and the dramatic Edinburgh skyline, perfectly blend natural beauty and historical charm.

The ever-changing Scottish skies only enhance the atmosphere, whether a golden sunset casts warm light over the ruins or moody clouds add a touch of drama.

When couples choose us to be their destination wedding in Edinburgh, we can capture timeless, cinematic photos that feel straight out of a historical romance.

Accessible via a scenic hike, St Anthony’s Chapel is ideal for adventurous couples looking for something magical.

The combination of its history, breathtaking surroundings, and ethereal beauty makes it a standout choice for wedding photos that will be cherished forever.

It’s a piece of Edinburgh’s soul, adding depth and romance to any wedding story.

The ancient stone ruins silently witnessed their love and commitment as they reaffirmed their bond and celebrated their journey.

After their ceremony, we took the happy couple on a beautiful photoshoot around some of our favourite photography locations in the historic Old Town.

As they walked, held hands and shared a gentle kiss, we photographed their sweet moments’ emotions together, creating a gallery of timeless photos that authentically capture the love they share.

We had the best time with Glenda and John, who are head over heels in love! We wish them the best for a happy life together and hope they will cherish the precious memories we created together when they entrusted us to be their destination wedding photographer in Scotland.
