About

Hey!

I’m Lizzie, a Scottish documentary elopement and wedding photographer. I absolutely love capturing relaxed, beautiful images of ALL love stories.

If there’s one thing you need to know about me, it’s that I really love love. Love between all people, no matter your gender, race or sexuality, whether you’re big or small. I love the quiet, romantic in between moments where there are glances and laughs, soft touches and kind words.

My style of photography is driven by connection – connection between the people in front of the lens, and my connection with them. I love getting to know what makes you tick, your story and how you live life together! My aim is to provide a relaxed, comfortable space for you to be authentically you, and have fun together while I create art from your moments and stories!

Lovely, talented photographer that will put you at ease

We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photographer. From the very beginning, she was so warm and lovely, instantly putting us at ease. We were quite nervous about being in front of the camera, but she made the whole experience feel completely natural and relaxed.

Our engagement shoot was such a great introduction—it really helped us feel comfortable and prepared for the big day. By the time the wedding came around, we felt like we were in such safe hands.

On the day itself, she brought such a calm, positive energy and made sure we had special moments carved out just for the two of us, which meant so much. She captured all the big, important moments beautifully, but also so many of the smaller, candid ones happening behind the scenes—those are some of our absolute favourites.

We truly treasure our photos and honestly love every single one. If you’re feeling even slightly nervous about wedding photography, we can’t recommend her enough—she made the entire experience enjoyable, effortless, and so special.

If you don't like having your picture taken, book Lizzie!

My husband and I both hate having our pictures taken so finding a photographer was the thing we were the most anxious about when we eloped.

We'd seen Lizzie's portfolio and loved her style and talent for taking documentary-style photographs that reflected moods and landscapes. She couldn't have been more reassuring and helped us to not only feel comfortable but honestly enjoy an afternoon of taking pictures! Her helpful prompts got the best out of us, and she was so friendly and kind it made the whole process so much smoother, and she gave great advice in terms of selecting locations for pictures and timings.

We are absolutely thrilled with the pictures we've had back so far.

the BEST photographer 🤍

We honestly can’t put into words how thankful we are for Lizzie. From our engagement photos to the wedding day, she made us feel so comfortable and at ease in front of the camera.

The photos we have received so far are absolutely stunning. Every time we look through them, we are transported right back to the wedding day. Lizzie captured the day perfectly.

If you’re considering Lizzie for your wedding, do it. You’ll be forever grateful you did. She is truly the best at what she does 🤍

Lizzie has been absolutely fantastic during our photoshoot. She is friendly and professional, we are both camera shy but found ourselves very relaxed and truly enjoyed the experience! The pictures we received are stunning and were delivered on time. I would definitely recommend her!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
