About

On Hitched.co.uk since 2022

Last update: April 2024

Folkstorie specialises in cinematic, dreamy coverage of intimate weddings and elopements with a focus on candid images.

My style is influenced by the wild beauty of the Scottish countryside, which will be showcased wherever possible. I will go the extra mile to make the planning process as stress-free as possible!

I am based out of the beautiful city of Edinburgh, Scotland.

Services Offered

I have a range of packages to choose from so you can pick whatever best fits your budget and wishes. You'll get to meet with me for an initial consultation to talk about your ideas for the wedding.

I am also happy to recommend other vendors for you to work with on your day, from florists to musicians. After the wedding, the images will be shared on a convenient online gallery for you to browse and share at your own leisure.

Albums are also available to add onto packages. Get in touch for details!

Josh is truly excellent. His photos and films are perceptive and creative, but he’s also just a really top guy. He’s polite and professional and will have everyone smiling. Just book, you won’t regret it.

Can't Recommend Enough!

My fiance and I had a blast doing our engagement photos! We were pretty nervous beforehand and didn't know what to expect, but Josh kept it so fun and relaxed. And we are completely IN LOVE with the photos!!

The perfect experience.

We had a brilliant time with Josh from Folkstorie. He went above and beyond to make my partner and I comfortable, despite us both being rather camera shy. The shoot itself was really fun as Josh is super friendly and a chatty guy- who makes you feel at ease throughout (resulting in excellent and natural looking shots)!

The resulting album that we received was promptly delivered and we were both really pleased with the editing. There is a beautiful tone to the images, which looks better than the location did in real life.

I would not hesitate to have a shoot with Josh again. It was such an enjoyable experience (I never thought I could say that about getting my photo taken) and we were so pleased with the results. Thanks a million.

Great guy, awesome photos!

Josh made us feel so relaxed and comfortable! And that's quite an achievement because we're both pretty camera shy. We had all our favourite music playing and we were free to go wherever we wanted - we basically just had a day out while Josh took snaps, and then every once in a while he'd spot a particularly good photo opportunity and give us suggestions and stuff. Literally can't imagine it going better. Would highly recommend!
