On the wedding day, Jonathon blended in effortlessly, making everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. The photos turned out beyond beautiful — every image tells a story, and we’ll cherish them for a lifetime.

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.

What are engagement photos?

Engagement photography is an incredible investment which you can treasure long into the future.

But these engagement photos only tell part of your love story.

A spectacular engagement photoshoot will vividly remind you of the wonderful times that preceded the big day and will serve as an ‘opening chapter’ to the rest of your adventure.

Engagement photos, sometimes called an ‘e-shoot’, ‘lifestyle photos’, ‘pre-wedding photos’, ‘engagement photography session’, are some of our favourite photo sessions 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 meet our couples in or around the Edinburgh and Lothian area to shoot engagement photos.

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 fortunate 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 relax and show 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 an excellent 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!
