About

Natural, relaxed and joy-filled wedding photography across Edinburgh and beyond

Hi, I’m Lorna — a calm, friendly wedding photographer based in North Berwick, just outside Edinburgh. I specialise in relaxed, storytelling photography that captures not just how your wedding day looked, but how it felt. My aim is to give you beautiful, honest images filled with real emotion, and to make the whole experience feel easy, enjoyable and completely stress-free.

Whether you're planning a heartfelt elopement on the coast or a joyful city celebration with all your favourite people, I’ll be there with a quiet presence and a big smile — gently guiding when needed and blending into the background when you just want to soak it all in.

My Photography Style

My style is timeless, natural and full of feeling. I focus on genuine connections and those little in-between moments that often end up being the most meaningful — a nervous hand-squeeze, your guests’ reactions, a stolen glance across the room. These are the memories you’ll treasure for years to come.

During portraits, I’ll give gentle direction to help you feel confident and relaxed — no awkward posing or forced smiles here —just meaningful, honest photos of you looking awesome and feeling amazing.

A Bit More About Me

After over seven years photographing weddings across the South of England, my family and I recently relocated to beautiful East Lothian. I now photograph weddings across Edinburgh, the Lothians and Fife — and I’m so excited to meet new couples in this stunning part of the world.

I’m also a mum and a fluffy double doodle owner, happiest when I’m by the sea or wandering around a local market with a coffee in hand.

People often say I bring a calm, steady energy to their day — I’m there to support you, not just photograph you. From helping you build a relaxed timeline, to quietly pinning on a buttonhole when needed, I’ll be in your corner the whole way through.

Perfect accompaniment to a perfect day
