About Me
Hello… My name is Patrick, and I’m a wedding photographer based in Edinburgh, Scotland. I have lived here all my life and have no plans to change that even though I would love to move to the highlands one day. I am a dad to four wonderful children that get annoyed and run away every time they see me with my camera. I mean, who doesn’t want their photo taken at breakfast? haha!
I really do love the wedding world and my only regret is that I didn’t take the jump sooner, but I assure you that I am making up for lost time and am loving every second of it now attending over 80 weddings! I first got my hands on a real camera back in 2018 and as most it starts out as a hobby but it has since spiralled out of control…
In a good way :)
In choosing a wedding photographer, you are trusting that person to capture all of those big moments but also all of the small moments and in the details, the laughs, the tears of joy etc. that all come together and create the story of your wedding day. To me the photographs I take are much more than the place they are set in, the lighting, or composition. Everything plays their part of course, but really they are about capturing the intricacies of a relationship that make every wedding unique.
I want you to feel like I’m there to support you throughout the whole planning processes and by the time it comes around to your wedding day, it will feel like we have been friends forever and I’m just a guest that happens to have a camera and has a rough idea of what he’s doing. I shoot unobtrusively, capturing the day and its moments as they naturally unfold whilst trying to keep out of the way as much as possible.
I often find myself wanting to document moments, whether they are unforgettable experiences or everyday events. Photography allows me to do this not just for myself and those around me, but also for my clients. I spend lot of time outdoors because that's where I feel most inspired and I think my work reflects that. I have a pretty relaxed nature and that mirrors in the way I photograph weddings. I say it a lot but, if I were anymore laid back I’d be in trouble.
My style is more documentary, I like to blend in and capture what's going on without you really noticing that I am there. Those candid moments only happen once and I’d love to get them for you. Of course, mum and gran all want those particular photos for the front room but I want my photographs to be a documentation of one of the best days of your life. A little story featuring you and your partner and all of your close family and friends that will last forever.
Take some time to choose a photographer that prioritises documenting the kinds of moments that matter most to you. It's a pretty big job, which is why I believe it's one that is well worth the investment.
Regardless of what you decide, I encourage you to make your wedding photos a priority.
Recently I was fortunate enough to win my very first industry award, and I’m still in absolute shock. To be recognised by my couples as worthy is such an honour and I cant thank them all enough. I always strive to be the best help, best person and best photographer I can.
