Edinburgh Wedding Photographer – Natural, Relaxed & Documentary Style
I’m Claire Tennant, an Edinburgh wedding photographer capturing natural, honest moments across Scotland. From big city celebrations to quiet countryside elopements. I document your day as it really felt, relaxed, emotional, and completely you.
Natural Wedding Photography in Edinburgh & Across Scotland
You want wedding photographs that feel like your day actually felt.
The big moments, the quiet in-between moments, the people you love most, and all the emotion that made the day yours.
I’m Claire, an Edinburgh wedding photographer specialising in natural, relaxed and documentary-style photography for couples who want beautiful images without spending the whole day posing for them.
Whether you’re planning a luxury castle wedding, a laid-back city celebration or an intimate Scottish elopement, I’ll capture your day honestly, creatively and unobtrusively.
Relaxed Wedding Photography Across Scotland
I photograph weddings throughout:
- Edinburgh
- East Lothian
- Fife
- Glasgow
- The Highlands
- and destinations across Scotland
My approach is simple:
less staging, less pressure, more real moments.
No stiff poses.
No endless group photos.
No turning your wedding into a photoshoot.
Just genuine storytelling photography that lets you enjoy the day fully while still ending up with incredible images.

my approach
I’m a documentary wedding photographer based in Edinburgh, capturing weddings across Scotland for couples who care more about moments than perfection.
My style blends:
- candid storytelling
- natural light
- relaxed portraits
- emotional moments
- editorial creativity
I’ll gently guide when needed, but most of the day you’ll barely notice me there, allowing you to stay present with the people you love.
The result is a gallery full of honest, timeless images that feel natural years later. You make the memories and I’ll capture them in beautiful photographs that you can share and treasure.
Delight to work with
Claire was a delight to work with. We have so many wonderful memories to look back thanks to her, including lots of us and our little girl.
Andy and Georgia, Ednam House Hotel
I loved it.
Claire photographed our wedding recently and we are so happy with the results of the photos. She did an incredible job on the day of being friendly and providing suitable guidance.
The final photos are excellently edited, really capturing the vibe and incredible loving moments we had on the day.
Veronica and Jamie, Branxholm Park
Highly Recommend.
Claire photographed our Edinburgh wedding and I couldn’t be happier with the results. She was fantastic on the day capturing lots of candid shots and also the more official wedding photos. Amazing quality photos and brilliant photographer. I highly recommend Claire for your wedding!!
