A photographer who made our day really special

We chose Alan after seeing examples of his previous work online. We arranged to meet up and were instantly put at ease with his friendly, informal approach. We explained what we wanted and he talked us through various ideas.

Alan is really good at keeping in touch between agreeing to work together and the big day.

On the day itself, his warm and sincere approach really helped us all to relax and enjoy the day. Our guests loved Alan being amongst us and he was really good at working with our oldest and youngest guests which is pretty special.

We are delighted with the photographs. They really show our relationship together and there are some really lovely individual portraits of those we love - Alan captured them perfectly.

I think Alan’s pricing options are fair and he can tailor to your budget.


I would wholeheartedly recommend him for your special day!

Our Photographer was INCREDIBLE

We booked Alan back in 2023 for our wedding this year following seeing his style of photography and instantly knowing it matched us, he is incredibly natural and you can tell he has a vision with every photo he takes. We really wanted a more natural style just capturing every moment and Alan delivered. We managed to meet Alan before the big day for a few pre-wedding photos which was great as we got to know each other and it made the day so much less awkward as we’d already experienced the ‘how to’ stand, walk & pose!
The photos dropped in our inbox within a matter of weeks and we are buzzing with the results! Quote from my wife: “he took a shit ton of pictures” 🤣 and a quote from my best man “he’s like a ninja, I didn’t see him taking those photos”!
He had a good mix of making things feel very chilled and fun, as well as the right amount of forcefulness to get us and guests to the right place so he could capture the photos and let you get on with mingling/partying.

I remember his pricing being very competitive to other photographers but the value in this was incredible, memories for a lifetime captured.
Photography is the only product that you’re not just buying for 1 day, you’ll keep them forever. Make sure you make the right choice, and if Alan also matches what you envision for your memories, he is definitely the right choice.
He’s also a super nice guy.. I recommend getting in touch and chatting things through with him.

Thanks Alan, we’ll remember you when we look back at our photos for years to come!

Fantastic!

We recently got married at Huntingtower Castle in Perth, and Alan was our photographer. I’ll be honest—I usually hate having my photo taken, so the idea of wedding photos filled me with dread! But from our very first conversation, Alan put me completely at ease.

We did a pre-wedding shoot with him, which made such a difference. It helped me relax and gave me a clear idea of what to expect on the big day. Alan was fantastic with communication throughout and kept us fully in the loop at every stage.

On the wedding day itself, Alan managed that perfect balance—he was present but unobtrusive. He captured so many beautiful moments without us even realising he was there, which is exactly what we wanted. The photos feel natural, relaxed, and genuinely reflect the joy of the day.

He moved through the formal shots quickly and efficiently, so we never felt like we were being pulled away from our guests. Everything felt seamless and stress-free.

We also did table dash photos with our evening guests, and Alan really captured the energy and fun of the reception—again, without being intrusive.

We are absolutely thrilled with our photos and have received so many lovely compliments. We’ll be recommending Alan to everyone we know who’s getting married—he truly was an essential part of what made our day so special.

Amazing photographer and an absolute pleasure!

We absolutely couldn't recommend Alan enough! He was great at communicating and even showed that he was excited for our wedding day which made us feel quite lucky to have someone truly invested in our big day! 🎃

On the day he was incredibly helpful from keeping an eye on the time, organising people where they need to be, helping us get ready, taking photos preparation and guests ariving and also, have a good chin wag with us. Our photos have come out beautifully and they feel really natural for us, lots of smiley faces and creative ideas. He has a lovely eye for detail and created some lovely photos of our decor, vow books and rings. Alan really knows how to capture personality and happiness in a photo and we're truly sad we cannot do the day all over again with him!

Amazing quality and professionalism

Alan
Finding it hard to put into words how to thank Alan and to describe just how good our experience was! We found Alan via hitched and we are so glad we did!! The process from start to finish has been amazing. Alan sent us information, quotes etc. When we decided to book with him he made a point of being available to meet with us when we were in Aberdeen. (Aberdeen is 200 miles away from where we live) he showed us some of his work in print and available photo albums. Alan talked to us about how the day could go, the process of the photography throughout the day and includes us in all the decision making throughout this. He had a plan A,B & C for everything when it came to our photos (weather permitting) which was really reassuring. Our wedding photos were at Dunnottar castle and Alan went ahead and contacted them on behalf of us, keeping us updated throughout the whole wedding planning experience. When it came to the big day Alan was very discreet and calm working away in the background and has a fantastic kind manner putting everyone at ease to achieve the best photos possible! Professionalism and quality is above all. Cannot recommend enough. Thank you. Rachel & Graeme.

Exceptional work in unconventional situation.

Alan was a fantastic photographer for our wedding.

We had a slightly unusual wedding ceremony, since my husband and I were living in Japan and had travelled to Scotland just to get married. Despite the long distance and time difference, Alan was exceptionally professional in assisting us with our wedding. He often times went beyond our expectations with helping us plan from abroad.

In addition, I would highly recommend him based on his friendly attitude alone, which greatly aided my photo-shy family in feeling comfortable in front of the cameras.

Fantastic service, highly recommended.

Alan Farmer captured our day perfectly, from start to finish. He was professional, friendly, made us feel completely at ease, and most of time we didn't even know he was there! Our photographs are AMAZING, not only do they look fabulous but Alan managed to tell a story of our day.
We couldn't recommend him enough, from his professional, patient and friendly manner, his attention to detail, reasonable pricing and of course making us all look fabulous! Thank you Alan for making our day extra special!

Relaxed Photo Experience

My wife and I had a "couples shoot" with Alan. We had a fantastic afternoon from start to finish. Alan knew exactly what we wanted. He was so chilled which made the experience that much more enjoyable. Thanks again Alan!!

Informal & Relaxing

Allan was a very relaxed and easy photographer to be around. His aim was to capture natural photographs of our day and as such didn’t force anyone to pose in any particular way for photographs just taking advantage of the atmosphere and surroundings. Very likeable guy, easy to get along with. Even at short notice he arranged a pre-wedding shoot to get to know us before the day. Highly recommended.
