Your photoshoot will be fun and relaxed with no STIFF faces – guaranteed.

Are you after some beautiful portraits of the two of you now that the engagement is official? Or are you secretly planning to propose and want photographs to capture the moment they say ‘Yes!’? Or perhaps you’re travelling to Edinburgh and while here, would love to have professional couple photos taken in and around our beautiful city?

Well, if you’re fun, and adventurous and want your story to reflect your love, you’re in the right place! Let’s celebrate this.

My name is Armands and I’m an Edinburgh engagement photographer.

I want to create meaningful photographs that will tell your unique story. I’m here to guide you, help you to plan the perfect photoshoot, and to ensure you have an amazing time.

Planning your engagement photoshoot in Edinburgh?

Edinburgh is an amazing place for photography.

No wonder people flock here for special occasions and to plan those surprise proposals.

The city is one of the most romantic destinations in Europe, making it the perfect backdrop for couples’ photoshoots.

Edinburgh is unique in that there are so many locations where you could do your engagement photography.

You have the city centre with its beautiful gardens. You have the old town with characterful buildings on Royal Mile and moody closes to escape the crowds on the streets.

You have a beach nearby, or you can reach some wonderful, secluded beaches just a 30-minute drive away in the car as well.

You have the famous ‘Arthur’s Seat’ mountain if you would like your portraits to look like you have been in the Highlands.

Plus, a 15-minute drive away, you have the magnificent Pentland Hills for those who would prefer a more active outdoors shoot.

There are so many options to choose from and I can always guide you if you are unsure.

Edinburgh Arthur’s Seat Proposal

“Armands was a fantastic Photographer! I hired him for my proposal on top of Arthur’s seat and he was very on top of it, literally! After I proposed (which was captured beautifully) he revealed himself to us and we had a lovely chat. Afterwards he had us pose around Arthur’s seat. We did a photo shoot for around 45min to an hour and he came up with lots of great ideas for shots that we really loved. Fantastic photographer and a really nice guy! A+”

Here is a little backstage clip I made while I was pretending to be a tourist taking photos in the Great Hall at Edinburgh Castle.

That’s me in the grey jacket.

This is a very romantic idea for those who would like to have a proposal with a historic flavour.

Prices

Thank you for considering me as your engagement photographer. Regarding the cost, the price really depends on what you are after.

My standard rate for city engagement photoshoots is £280 which gives you plenty of time for a proposal and photo session after. It also includes your digital copies.

If you’d like photos to be taken in both the city and in the Highlands, please let me know and we can come up with a solution. I’m happy to do more adventurous engagement sessions outdoors as well – tell me all your exciting ideas!

Travelling to Edinburgh for an engagement photography session?

Please do get in touch if you’re planning your engagement photo session to coincide with a romantic trip to Edinburgh. While I work with many local couples, I am also very happy to hear from couples who are based elsewhere around the county.

Perhaps you are planning to get engaged while visiting Edinburgh? Or maybe you just have a love of our beautiful city and want to celebrate your recent engagement with pictures to remember your trip here?

International enquiries are also very welcome! I have photographed many newly engaged couples from as far afield as Hong Kong, Japan and China, and love helping you document your engagement in a fun and creative way while you are in Edinburgh.

Perhaps you want to do something daring and extravagant? Amazing! I really enjoy helping your creative vision become a reality, whether you want to wear a full-glamour wedding dress or visit prominent city attraction spots.

If this is you, here are a few things you might need to consider and your photographer to confirm before booking:

– Do you need permission to be photographed in your dress at certain locations you planning?
– How will you move from location to location?
– Are you planning to do changes for him or her?
– Is your photographer good at posing couples in high-fashion style sessions?
– Is it possible to do a session somewhere else in Scotland, like the Highlands?

These are just a few considerations for you to think about. I’m here to help and provide advice. Please do contact me with any questions you may have.
