We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Jonathon (Love Wedding Photos And Film) for our wedding. From the first consultation to the final gallery, they were professional, warm, and incredibly talented. He captured every special moment — the laughter, the little details — with such artistry and care.

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.

If you’re looking for someone who truly understands how to capture the heart and soul of your wedding, look no further. Jonathon (Love Wedding Photos And Film) is simply amazing!

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.

Our photography coverage began with the bride and groom mingling with guests outside Edinburgh City Chambers’s wedding venue.

Melanie looked sensational in a modern, slim-fitting gown by designer Alex Perry and groom Joel looked smart but relaxed in a navy suit.

Melanie and Joel were married in a simple and intimate civil ceremony.

Led by the registrar and joined by a close gathering of family and friends, Melanie and Joel exchanged their vows, making their love and commitment official.

After their marriage ceremony, we took group photos of the newlyweds with their guests.

We enjoyed taking Melanie and Joel on their newlywed photoshoot around Edinburgh’s historic and picturesque Old Town.

There are many locations and important landmarks close to the wedding venue where we shot beautiful photos, capturing sweet moments of the newlyweds’ love and connection.
