Hi, I'm Karen 👋

Calming

Dedicated

Hello! I’m Karen, a down-to-earth and super-reliable professional photographer based in Inverness in the Highlands of Scotland.

I’m at my happiest when I’m outdoors, in nature, or on the deck of a ferry, heading out to the islands. I can’t get enough of the Western Isles. I even got married in the sand dunes at Luskentyre, on the beautiful Isle of Harris. One of the best adventures I’ve ever had was cycling the 200+ mile Hebridean Way solo in a week in 2021, and camping along the way. I’m currently planning my next Bucket List adventure… probably a long distance walk!

Happy couple married in June

Kingsmills Hotel, Inverness

Karen did a fantastic job of our wedding photos! They’re all great! We had a small, intimate wedding at the Kingsmills Hotel in Inverness and only needed a couple of hours of photography coverage. We really enjoyed Karen’s company on the day, and she surprised us afterwards by delivering our wedding photos in less than a week! Thanks again Karen – we couldn’t be more happy with the pictures!

Kimberley & Stuart Randall

Happy couple married in January

Highland Archive Centre & Craigmonie Hotel, Inver

Karen’s knowledge and experience was invaluable to us on the day. She made us feel so at ease, it truly felt like she was a friend sharing our day. We particularly enjoyed our couple’s photoshoot at Ness Islands and we’re THRILLED with the results. Thanks again for everything, Karen, we can’t thank you enough for your time, professionalism and good humour at our wedding!“

Happy couple married in October

Mar Lodge, Braemar

Karen was such a fantastic wedding photographer for our wedding at Mar Lodge Estate, Braemar. Karen was great at communicating prior to the wedding, responding to emails quickly and we had great video call a few weeks before the wedding which really helped prepare us. Karen was a fantastic photographer to have at our wedding and I would recommend her to anyone looking for natural and relaxed photos to treasure from your wedding day.

Beatriz Bachega & Gabriel de Souza Augusto

Happy couple married in October

Fonab Castle Hotel, Pitlochry

We travelled to Scotland from Brazil in October to get married! Our celebrant recommended Karen so we arranged a call with her and booked her as our wedding photographer! We’re so glad that we did! We really enjoyed Karen’s relaxed company throughout the day, and we felt totally comfortable in front of the camera. We are in love with our wedding photos and can’t stop looking at them! Thank you so much Karen!

Emily & Connor Whiteford

Happy couple married in October

Karen, thank you so much for the gorgeous photos! Our parents were worried after bad experiences with their own wedding photographers, but you put them at ease on the day and they cried tears of happiness over our beautiful pictures. You’ve captured the magic of the day, and how amazing our surroundings were. These will be treasured memories for the rest of our lives, and we thank you for that. Looking over the photos transports us back to the day we got married.

Happy couple married in September

Private property, Lochinver

We’re absolutely delighted that we booked Karen as our wedding photographer. Could not recommend more!! We were looking for a photographer to capture natural and true moments throughout the day and we loved Karen’s authentic and bright style. And we liked Karen too! Karen made us feel totally comfortable and we had the best day. Our timings changed a little on the day, but Karen went with the flow and captured some really special pictures of us. Karen, thank you so much!
