A Perfect Day, Perfectly Captured

From the day we had our initial meeting with Dougi in Edinburgh to the actual big day, Dougi's warm and friendly demeanor immediately put us at ease, making our wedding day even more special. Dougi always made us comfortable to trust his process and his ideas which all translated amazingly. His ability to blend seamlessly with our guests and capture authentic moments was truly impressive. From the very beginning of the day’s activities, the heartfelt exchange of vows at the ceremony, the festive and lively drinks reception, to the unforgettable speeches and joyful dance floor, he truly captured the essence of our celebration.
The stunning photographs with the backdrop of the historic Balmoral Hotel, with its grandeur and elegance, perfectly complemented the beauty of our wedding day. The album he created is a timeless treasure, filled with memories that will be cherished for generations.
We are eternally grateful to Dougi for his talent, professionalism, and dedication. His work has exceeded our expectations and provided us with a beautiful visual record of our special day. We wholeheartedly recommend Dougi to any couple seeking a photographer who will capture the magic of their wedding day.

Don’t look any further for candid shots!

We came across Dougi when looking for a photographer that could produce really natural photos of our wedding. Neither of us are particularly posey people and didn’t want to spend any length of time standing still. Dougi was everything we were looking for and the offering of a ‘pre wedding’ shoot was really appealing to us. We booked 2 years before the wedding and he kept in touch the entire time offering assistance and checking in. Then it came time for our pre shoot, Dougi was really flexible with dates and times and met with us in Edinburgh on a very busy day! He put us at ease instantly over a coffee and seemed genuinely interested in chatting about our lives and wedding. I noticed he had been following us both on social media for a while at this point so he had a good idea of our personalities which I think is a great touch. The shots he got on that day were so fun, he was really easy to follow and you could just see his creative mind at work. We got them back so quickly too.
The Wedding Day - he arrived and brought an air of calm to the suite. I was much more relaxed than anticipated and he just got straight to work, the pictures of the bridesmaids all ready are some of my favourite overall! He was so subtle that morning you wouldn’t have known he was there if he wasn’t making you laugh.
We got married on the day of Storm Darragh and the wind could’ve taken you away, that and it felt like -5 outside… Dougi was really quick in getting our outdoor shots and you wouldn’t know from the pictures that we were absolutely Baltic!
The rest of the night he bounced around and captured loads of great memories for us, people have said they had no idea he was there on the dance floor and has caught so many lovely moments as a result.
Nothing was forced with Dougi, he’s so easy to get along with and his wealth of experience is just so obvious in his work. We couldn’t recommend him more highly if we tried. Don’t look any further than him for gorgeous candid memories of your day!

Smith, 28 Oct 24.

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding. From start to finish, Dougie was the epitome of professionalism and made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. His communication throughout the day was excellent, ensuring everything flowed perfectly without feeling rushed. Thoughtful and attentive, he had a way of putting us at ease, making even the most camera-shy moments feel natural. Above all, his caring and understanding nature truly stood out, capturing not just beautiful images but the genuine emotions of the day. We are so grateful for his incredible work and highly recommend them!

The best wedding photographer you could ever ask for!

Dougi was an absolute delight to have for our wedding day! From booking to our pre wedding shoot and then to the actual day Dougi was so professional so friendly and the quality of his work is unmatched! We are absolutely obsessed with our photos! Everyone commented on the day how great he was too! We booked Doug 2 years in advance and unlike other suppliers Dougi kept in touch with us so we knew we were not forgotten about! Nothing was too much trouble on the pre wedding shoot or on the wedding day anything we asked for Dougi made it happen. We received 10 photos less than 24 hours after the wedding and then all of our photos only 3 weeks after the wedding! If you’re looking for a photographer for your special day look no further than Dougi! Get him booked!

Listened to what we wanted and delivered it perfectly

We were sceptical about wedding photography and absolutely loathed the idea of an album full of posed and fake shots which captured rows of relatives and curated, staged images of us “having a lovely time”.
We told Dougi as much and he said he could deliver what we wanted, and he absolutely did. Inobtrusive and discrete he skirted the day taking hundreds of photographs that reflected us and our surroundings and friends and family perfectly. I love the photographs and he was so nice and easy to have as part of the day.

Couldn’t Be Happier With Our Experience And Photos

My husband and I found Dougi’s portfolio of wedding photography in our search and we knew immediately that we had found our photographer. Dougi perfectly captured the candid, relaxed feeling we were hoping for. He really has an incredible eye for capturing moments. Dougi was such a joy to work with through every step of the process, from our first zoom meeting to receiving our gallery of photos. His great communication and support, flexibility and chill vibe put us right at ease. Thomas and I couldn’t be happier with our photos! And all of our friends and family have been complimenting them as well. We’re only sad that our time working with Dougi is over.

The best wedding photographer ever!

Dougi is by far one of the best suppliers that we had at our wedding, we had so many of our guests comments on how friendly he was and was a great part of our day. We met up for our pre wedding shoot and Dougi made us both feel so at ease and relaxed, neither of us are used to getting our pictures taken but he managed to make it feel so natural and the smiles he captured were so genuine and lovely! He was very laid back and ensured that we enjoyed our day whilst also capturing beautiful photos. I will be recommending him to all of our friends and family for future weddings and any events! Thanks again Dougi, you were brilliant!

Friendly, relaxed, professional photographer.

Dougi is an incredible photographer.
He captured our day perfectly, exactly what we wanted. He went above and beyond on our wedding day and on the build up to our wedding. He is such a friendly, easy going guy with the ability to ease a crowd… and get them going! We couldn’t be happier with our photos, they were ready after a week - which was a very pleasant surprise and would recommend Dougi to everyone! Thank you so sooo much Dougi. You are an absolute star.

Absolutely the best!

What can I say? Dougie was the best. Made everything a joy for someone like me and my husband who hate getting their picture taken. And ladies if he can make me - a 59 year old bride - look this good imagine what he can do for you! You must must must book him!

Creative Genius

Dougi was by far one of the best choices we made when planning our wedding. We booked Dougi at the end of August 2023 for our wedding at the end of November 2023 and we were delighted that he was available. He was quick to respond and always flexible to what we wanted and needed. After an initial pre-wedding shoot to get used to him and being photographed (we're both quite shy by nature...) we were sure we made the right choice.

On our wedding itself, Dougi was so relaxed and easy going which made it all the more fun for us to simply enjoy our day. And a big bonus that the day after we got an initial sneak peek of 10 photos. Dougi's turn around time is amazing and after two and a half weeks, we have our full digital album.
We are just over the moon with our beautiful photos!! Dougi captured our day perfectly, with the spirit of love, fun, family and friendship we hoped would shine through.
Dougi is a true creative genius and his relaxed presence set the tone for us to enjoy every minute of our day - and all our family and friends commented on how friendly and easy going he is. It is so evident what an important role he played as part of our day to make sure every moment was captured and we cannot thank him enough! It was a pleasure working with him and we will highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer.

Perfection

We booked Dougi for our recent wedding and I cannot recommend him enough. The photos he captured for us are stunning and he just made us feel both at ease. He was so friendly and our guests (and other suppliers) commented on how lovely and friendly he was. Thank you so much Dougi.
