Capturing your elopement authentiacally

Hey , I’m Emily - the girl behind the lens.

I’m Emily, a UK-based destination elopement photographer specialising in intimate weddings across the Scottish Highlands, Iceland, and beyond. My work has taken me to some of the world’s most awe-inspiring landscapes, from the rugged peaks of the Dolomites to the wild, windswept cliffs of the Faroe Islands.

Elopements are about connection, and my approach is rooted in creating a relaxed and natural experience that allows you to truly be present. I’m here to capture those unscripted moments—the quiet glances, the bursts of laughter, and the way the wind catches your hair as you stand on the edge of the world together.

With nearly a decade of being a photographer and countless journeys through the Scottish Highlands, I bring a deep understanding of these landscapes. Whether it’s finding the perfect hidden spot, navigating unpredictable weather, or helping you plan your day, I’m here to make it as seamless as it is unforgettable.

When I’m not photographing elopements, you’ll likely find me exploring new trails, savouring a cup of coffee in a cosy café, or dreaming up my next adventure. I’m passionate about storytelling through images that feel as honest and extraordinary as your love story.

If this sounds like what you’re looking for, let’s connect and start planning your incredible day.

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to capture our Glencoe elopement. Emily was very knowledgable about the area, suggesting beautiful spots to visit on the day. She was warm, friendly and professional, and even helped me get into my dress! We felt very comfortable and relaxed in her company. Our photos are beyond stunning, they are romantic, moody and truly unique. We have had so many compliments from friends and family and we will cherish them forever. Thank you so much Emily, you are incredibly talented. Sophie and Richard

Relax and enjoy your elopement day

Your elopement is all about the two of you, free from the pressure and stress of a big wedding. Take a deep breath and soak in every moment. This day is for celebrating your love, your way, without distractions or expectations. Whether you’re exchanging vows on a mountaintop, in a quiet forest, or by the sea, let the beauty of your surroundings and the simplicity of the moment guide you. Trust that everything will fall into place, and savor the joy of being fully present with your partner. After all, this is your special day—just the way you’ve always imagined it.
