I'd describe myself as a lipstick tomboy, I love getting all glammed up for a night out but equally as happy if I'm covered in mud from a hike with the dogs.

I've been interested in photography since the age of 10, taking a camera everywhere I went, a habit I continue to this day! When my dog Skye was pregnant with puppies I decided to upgrade my camera to a Nikon D780 and start taking my hobby more seriously, documenting the whole pregnancy. Since then, I've continued to develop as a photographer, taking my camera with me to weddings, sports events, parties, vintage car rallies and countless adve

Happy couple married in October

March 2024

Fantastic

Kirstin was fantastic to work with, we spent time together a few days before hand so she could get to know everyone, and our peedie dog. She memorised all the names, who was who, and what we wanted. Kirstin went above and beyond to help us on the day, even taking us to a separate location for photos. Cannot thank you enough, you made everyone feel at ease as if we had known each other for ages.

FAQs

Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

Mr & Mrs Bain as it was my first winter wedding in a beautiful candle lit barn and a fantastic sparkler exit.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Book with me xo

Describe your typical process with a couple.

1. Fill out contact form If you're interested in having me photograph your love story, fill out the contact form with your date & venue. I will get back to you within a few days letting you know my availability & to discuss all of your plans so far. 2.Sign the Contract Once you choose your package it's time to finalise the booking by signing the contract and paying the deposit. After this your wedding is officially booked in & in my calendar. Woohoo! 3.Get hitched! We'll coordinate a plan for the entire day. A questionnaire will be sent out to you a few months before the wedding to get all of the details & timings from you. I want to keep things as natural as possible, no one wants to spend most of their day stood posing for photos. Enjoy every minute! 4.Receive Images You will receive sneak previews a few days after the wedding. The full gallery will be ready roughly around 6 weeks later. After this you pick your 50 favourite images for your print box (in package three) and should receive it within 3 weeks.

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

one that truly shows their emotion and love for eachother. Their natural laughing face or looking lovingly at each other. I want to FEEL your connection.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

I live in Orkney so I'm ready for all kinds of weather. It's totally up to the couple, they can decide to just do indoor photos or if they don't care about getting a bit wet then im all for embracing it and having the memories to look back on. It always makes a good story in years to come.

Describe how you got into photography.

fun fact - I'm dyslexic which I use to my advantage as I see the world differently. I thrive on capturing gorgeous memories and seeing beauty in the little things that often goes unnoticed. My aim if for you to look back at your wedding photos and be able to feel the same emotion as you felt in the moment it was taken.
