We booked Douglas for our wedding in May, and from the start this was a great experience, he accommodated our every need, there was clear communication and much discussion as to what we wanted for our big day. The photos are out of this world and he gives you 110% I have never seen a photographer work as hard as he done to capture every single moment and every detail, constantly coming up with new ideas on the spot as he was using the location to inspire.. Douglas gave us memories to cherish forever and the quality is absolute perfection. You will not be disappointed. 10 stars.

We are so grateful to Douglas being part of our day. Neither of us are the most comfortable in front of the camera but he made it so more easier and made us feel comfortable! We are so impressed with the photos from our day and we loved the mix of different styles of photographs that Douglas was able to get. All our family and friends have commented how good Douglas was at his job and we got so many great photos that’ll last a lifetime. We were also so grateful for how quickly Douglas was able to send some initial photos to us. We could not recommend Douglas enough.

The title really says it all! My husband I feel so lucky to have found Doug for our wedding photos. Doug did such a fantastic job and everything about him showed he truly cared about making our day as special as possible!

Douglas was fantastic during the whole wedding journey. He and his wife were super professional, friendly, helpful, and diligent throughout and the photos came out beautifully.

From the get-go, Douglas was super personable and flexible, helping us to feel more comfortable and relaxed. He included an engagement shoot as part of our package, which gave us some much needed practice and helped us to get more comfortable in front of the camera and also gave us lots of useful tips to think about for the big day.

Before the wedding, Douglas encouraged us to think of the type of photos we wanted, the people we wanted portraits with, and how we ideally wanted the schedule to run. As we didn’t have a formal wedding planner and were doing most things ourselves, this was very helpful!

The morning of the wedding, Douglas and his wife, Magic, drove all the way from Edinburgh to near Aviemore, through Storm Amy, to reach us. On arrival, they were perfectly calm and methodical, which was very much needed in all the chaos. We had no power outside the marquee, or phone signal on the whole estate, and somehow he managed to wrangle everyone to create some amazing pre-wedding photos.

During the ceremony, Douglas kindly (and thankfully) also filmed the wedding. We had setup our own camera for this but the file unfortunately corrupted, so he really saved us from not having anything! Additionally, Magic offered to take short video content on an iPhone, which included various snippets throughout the day. This came out beautifully and really captured the atmosphere of the day.

For the portraits, Douglas did an amazing job helping us and our guests to feel comfortable in front of the camera. Throughout the day, so many of my guests mentioned how friendly, approachable, and professional Douglas was. My husband and I are not used to being photographed and Douglas was so kind and patient with us when giving directions that he helped us to feel relaxed and really enjoy the process. We had wanted to get photos mostly outdoors, however were also at the mercy of Storm Amy, meaning Douglas had to be a bit creative which he took on with ease.

All of our photos came out so beautifully. We couldn’t be happier with how Douglas captured the atmosphere, joy, and love of our special day. He’s been so great to work with and an all round lovely guy.

My husband and I could not be happier with the service that Doug provided. Prior the to wedding day he was responsive to all my questions which made me feel at ease. He was also very accommodating in terms of the trial shoot where he came to the wedding venue on a date and time that suited us. On the day he captured every moment I wanted and delivered way beyond our expectations! Capturing the fun and 'candid' moments of our party without ever feeling intrusive. every image was beautifully composed, full of emotion, and perfectly edited. He managed to capture not just how the day looked, but how it felt. Our family and friends keep commenting on how stunning the photos are, and we’ll treasure them forever. Thank you so much Doug! We could not recommend you more.

My partner and I are so happy with our wedding photographs taken by Douglas. He was so well prepared, having taken the time to visit the wedding venue in advance so that everything ran smoothly. He was helpful and fun to have around on the day.
Douglas really listened to what we wanted, which was more natural and fun photos.
We especially loved that he managed to incorporate our car into some fun grooms party photos!
Overall I’d really recommend Douglas for capturing any special event.

Douglas was able to capture both the minute details and grand scale of my wedding beautifully. Douglas' ability to bring the colours out of my bridesmaids' dresses and the groomsmens' kilts really made the family portraits that were taken inside the venue stand out, pictures which we intend to keep as treasured keepsakes. When it came to the couples portraits, Douglas made us feel totally at ease, meaning our natural selves were able to shine through the our most intimate pictures. We also want to thank Douglas for capturing the tiny details of our rings, accessories, flowers, cake and wedding venue decorations, all of which means we have a full picture of how our big day looked - something particularly important to us as it was such a whirlwind experience. Thank you Douglas.

Douglas and Magic offer an incredibly professional service. Douglas is communicative of both his requirements (essential), and understanding of his clients’. On the day, Douglas and Magic worked incredibly hard to capture the essential moments of our wedding, and provided our photographs to an incredibly tight turnaround.

16/3/24 wedding - My husband and I were very pleased with his work. He is extremely kind and talented. He was well recommended by a friend and after seeing the results we are certain that we made the right choice hiring him. Our pics are impeccable.

I was very impressed by Douglas' photography skills. He did a great job capturing both our family portraits and the atmosphere of our wedding. He organised the group photos efficiently, and I liked how the results looked more natural that way.

Douglas found the best spots to capture us in beautiful light. We had a lot of fun and it only took 20 minutes to capture a variety of different scenes.

These memories are something we will treasure forever, and it's so nice to have accurate and natural portraits and pictures to keep those memories fresh.

What stood out to me the most was his ability to capture the real, unplanned moments of our day. He seemed to be everywhere, snapping genuine emotions and the little, almost magical details that made our day what it was.

If you're in search of a photographer who can handle both the formal and informal sides of a wedding, I could not recommend Douglas enough. We are so glad that we chose him to capture our day.

Thank you so much, Douglas!

A true professional and incredibly skilled in his craft. I want to take a moment to express my gratitude for the photography services provided by Douglas. He did a great job capturing both our family portraits and the candid moments during our wedding. Moments that I will remember forever thanks to these photos.
When it came to family pictures, Douglas skilfully organised us, making the process smooth and the results look natural. These portraits are something we'll treasure for a long time. He asked us beforehand what shots we were looking for and went above and beyond to get everything we asked for and more.
What stood out even more was his ability to capture the real, unplanned moments of our day. He seemed to be everywhere, snapping genuine emotions and little details that we might have missed. Even when we thought he should take a break he was still super involved in the photography.
If you're in search of a photographer who can handle both the formal and informal sides of a wedding, Douglas is the best choice. We appreciate his work and would recommend him to others. Thanks, Douglas!

Unforgettable experience, reliable, dynamic, friendly and very professional, made us all feel at easy. He captured the real sense of my wedding through the pictures. Thank you Douglas 🙏

Mr. Mackenzie was the perfect photographer for our wedding needs. He worked really well with all our guests, friendly and charismatic (especially great with the kids) to help get those amazing shots. The final images were just incredible and are now sitting on our mantle with pride. We got some extra prints done for the fam, and everyone was thrilled. Highly recommend!!!

Douglas managed to capture every aspect of our wedding from start to finish, he was prompt to arrive on the day, he had so many ideas for lovely photos capturing sentimental items such as jewellery etc. the photos we received are more than just a picture they tell a story and that’s exactly what we wanted. Would highly recommend!

Douglas was such a professional and friendly part of our special day. He captured so many special moments for us and made us and our guests feel at ease while having their photos taken. I fully recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and talented photographer on their wedding day! Thank-you again Douglas! Marie & Graeme
