East Lothian Wedding Photographer Testimonials
We know you will ♥ working with Love Wedding Photos And Film! Don’t just take our word for it…
Lauren and MikeI can honestly say it was the best choice we madeI first discovered Love Wedding Photos and Film when a old school friend shared her wedding photos on Instagram. They were amazing, so natural and not heavily edited - which I think can be hard to find these days. At this point we weren't even thinking of getting married but I thought if we ever do, that's who we need to take our photos.
Fast-forward 4 years later and we did decide to get married and Love Wedding Photos and Film were the first booking we made after the venue. I can honestly say it was the best choice we made. From booking in with them, the wedding day itself to getting our photos back, they were so professional and easy to deal with.
We had a super low key, outdoor wedding with just 9 guests. For us, our wedding was about making our relationship legal, in front of our closest family members and when I look at our photos, that's what Jonathon captured perfectly. My husband hates getting his photo taken however, Jonathan's relaxed, laid back style really put him at ease and we managed to get the best happy smiles out of him.
We ordered prints and an album afterwards and the quality of both is fantastic, therefore I would highly recommend these too.
Brides to be, I'd urge you all to use Love Wedding Photos and Film, they are just awesome and you won't have any regrets because wedding photos should be done right, which these guys do.

Wedding Photography Frequently Asked Questions
How far before my wedding day should I hire my photographer?
We recommend getting in touch as soon as you can. We receive bookings as much as three years in advance for peak dates such as weekends and the holiday season. Off-peak smaller ceremonies and elopements are often booked at short notice. Please do contact us to find out more and to avoid being disappointed.
How is the price for wedding photography calculated?
Our wedding photographer prices vary depending on how many photographers are required, how many hours of coverage is required, where in Scotland you are getting married and the date of your wedding. Peak times (public holidays, Fridays, summer months and weekends) usually cost a little more. Get in touch with details of your day, often we have limited offers, and we’re usually happy to provide a bespoke quote if your plans don’t fit our standard pricing.
How much does it cost for a wedding photographer in East Lothian?
Our prices for an East Lothian wedding photographer start at just £349 for a single photographer. Adding an extra photographer and extra hours will cost more. View our photographer prices on our website right here.
How far will you travel?
As wedding photographers in East Lothian, we mostly cover ceremonies in East Lothian and Edinburgh. We are regularly asked to photograph couples in Midlothian, West Lothian, and Scottish Borders, and we’re happy to travel anywhere in Scotland! Have a look at how many fabulous venues and locations we’ve worked at.
Tell me why I should pick you to be my photographer.
Since 2006 we have photographed 500 couples’ weddings across Scotland. We are one of the highest-rated photographers on Google reviews. Not only do we create beautiful photos, but we also enjoy providing the very best of service to our couples, resulting in receiving an award for Best Photographer in Scotland South East at the 2020 Scottish Wedding Awards. Many of the best venues in East Lothian trust us as preferred photographers because we consistently provide exceptional service and photos.
Are you insured?
Absolutely! We’re comprehensively insured, with professional indemnity and public liability insurance, and our equipment is also insured. We operate a drone, and we’re fully authorised and insured for that, allowing us to offer you a wonderfully unique perspective for your photos and video. We also recommend purchasing wedding insurance with enough cover for all possible mishaps.
Can you provide elopement photography?
We certainly can. We are the most experienced elopement photographer in East Lothian, with significant experience in intimate elopement weddings at locations across East Lothian. We’ve also enjoyed photographing elopement weddings far and wide throughout Scotland, including Skye, Sutherland and the Scottish Borders.
Why do you recommend two photographers for all-day wedding coverage?
Having two wedding photographers in East Lothian allows for increased coverage of your day; a single photographer can’t be in two locations simultaneously. For example, while Claire is photographing the bridal preparations, Jonathon can be with the boys as they prepare. Two photographers working together can offer the best coverage of your once-in-a-lifetime moments; during the first kiss as you are announced as newly-weds, Jonathon can be at the back of the aisle photographing as you embrace and kiss while Claire is at the front of the room capturing your family’s reactions. During the newlyweds’ photos with Jonathon, you miss your family and guests having fun, so Claire covers that part of the day. Bear in mind that two photographers are not always needed, and we appreciate your budget might be better suited to a single photographer. We provide you with options; we have you covered with the best balance to suit your unique requirements. We recommend you view our wedding photographer prices for more information.
How do you supply our photos?
Your photos are delivered via a private download plus a password-protected online web gallery. We no longer supply photos on a USB thumb drive. Storing and sharing your photos from our secure servers is the future, and it’s here for you right now at no extra cost. No waiting for the postman to deliver a USB drive which you then have to pass around your family – just share the download and gallery links with your family and friends as often as you wish and at no extra cost. Remember that most devices such as iPads, notebooks and mobile phones do not have a USB port, meaning you have no way to open a USB drive. We also keep your photos online for at least one year (though, in practice, your photos will usually be kept online indefinitely), providing a valuable backup at no extra cost to you. Your private web gallery allows viewing from practically any device, and you can order beautiful prints and wall art directly from the gallery.
How long until we receive our photos?
Typical delivery times for photos are from as little as two days to several weeks from your wedding day. Delivery times can vary as the year progresses if our editing backlog increases during peak season because we never outsource any of our work. We will keep you updated and always aim to have your photos delivered as quickly as possible while maintaining our exceptionally high standards.
Can I find out more about what you do?
Of course, we provide a lot of relevant and useful info on our guide to choosing a photographer.
