We’re so happy you found us!

We appreciate there are a zillion photographers and videographers out there and you’ve quite possibly spent many hours trawling through Google/Instagram/other people’s weddings photos to get here.

While we would LOVE to be part of your day, we currently only have availability for midweek elopement bookings in 2023 / 2024.

Here’s the short version of who we are and how we work, to help you decide if we’re the right photo + film duo for you....

WEDDING PORTFOLIO

We are a husband and wife duo based in Fife, near Edinburgh who have been photographing - and are now also filming! - weddings and elopements together for over 15 years!

We keep things very natural and relaxed, working mostly in a creative documentary style and shooting candidly. Our couples tell us they want all the important photos (including a few group shots to keep the family happy!), without having to spend too long away from their guests and the party. 

Having said that, we’re always happy to sneak folks away to create some photo magic, especially when the light is amazing, and they need a little (almost) alone time away from it all. We love it when they tell us this was one of their favourite parts of the day (it’s ours too, but you probably already guessed that!).

We’re often asked, but find it really tough to describe our photography style, so we’re going to cheat here and let our couples do it for us…

"Jay and Christina are simply the best. The quality of their work speaks for itself. Our wedding photos are incredibly beautiful and even more than that - they made our day so comfortable and fun. Every moment we spent planning, they were extremely communicative and straightforward, and in person they're just dolls. They are so kind! So fun! So fun to be around! They made everyone, not just us, feel at ease and we couldn't be more grateful."

"What can I say about Christina and Jay... genuine, spirited, charming, enthusiastic, extremely generous, creative, professional, I could go on. They are simply wonderful!
The photographs themselves ARE AMAZING!! So natural, capturing all the different emotions of the day. We can’t recommend Elemental Photography enough. Christina and Jay, thank you so so much for everything you have done, thank you for the amazing memories you have created for us and thank you for being a part of one of the best days of my life."

"Jay and Christina perfectly captured the spirit of our wedding, the energy, love and happiness, everything we wanted and more! All our friends and family absolutely love the photos and we are still getting compliments about how great they are. In addition to the amazing photos from the most special day of our lives, they were also absolutely fantastic the whole time. We think one of the nicest things about our wedding was to be surrounded by people who shared the love with us on the day and they were not an exception to that. Thanks again!"

“I cannot thank Jay & Christina enough for our incredible wedding photos - they captured our day beautifully; all the anticipation, emotion, laughs & love! From the first time I met them, to the wedding day itself, they felt like old friends who fitted right into the party.

“They have a magical knack of making everyone feel comfortable from the get go, getting the best shots and managing the organised chaos of a wedding day with 140 guests! I cannot recommend them enough for anyone still looking to book their wedding photographers!”

“Jay and Christina were everything we wanted for our elopement and even things we didn’t know we needed! From our first contact email we just got this instant feeling that these were the photographers for our special day. This continued in our Skype chat and when we met in person on our wedding day we couldn’t have asked for more!

“Our photographs are just so incredible. The magic of our day was completely captured for everyone who couldn’t be there to enjoy and they will continue to delight us for the rest of our lives. I couldn’t more wholeheartedly recommend Elemental Photography.”

Katie & James

PRICING

Our weddings range from teeny elopements for two right through to huge four day celebrations, and we tend to find that bespoke pricing rather than fixed packages works best for our couples.

But as a guide, here's our most popular elopement option.

Travel within mainland Scotland and North England is also included. If your wedding is taking place further afield (say Havana?) let us know!

ADVENTURE SHOOT

Getting to explore some of Scotland’s most scenic places with our couples is one of our favourite things. It isn’t always possible to run to the hills on your wedding day (if you're having one!).

These are a great way to carve out some time to connect as a couple. And you’ll be left with incredible photos, and wonderful memories to treasure forever.

Pricing is location dependent - get in touch for more details.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Do you shoot film or digital?

  Digital for weddings – we’re Nikon/Sony users.

How many weddings do you shoot?

We want to deliver our absolute best work from each wedding we photograph, and we therefore limit the number of bookings we take to 25 a year, in order to keep the standard of our photography and customer service consistently high. It also means we get some weekends off too. Burn out is very real in this industry and we’d hate to not love what we do anymore or deliver our very best each time. It’s a very important day after all!

Do you offer films?

Our creative little films are available for intimate weddings and elopements. If you’re looking for the full works, we can recommend some incredible filmmakers.  

How long will it take for us to get our photos after the wedding?

Your full set of images (including your slideshow and gallery) will be ready within 4-6 weeks. A whole lotta love goes into these!

Do we need to feed you?

If you’d like us to stick around while you eat dinner, then a hot meal would be appreciated (this is usually served to us while you enjoy your meal). Otherwise, we can pop out to get our own food.

Will you personally be shooting the wedding?

Yes, unless in the event of major illness/other emergency (fortunately, this hasn’t happened yet in our 12+ years of photographing weddings but we have lovely, talented folks on our speed dial, just in case!).

How do we book?

To secure the date a deposit is required (this can be paid online, and our booking form can also be completed and signed online). And the remaining balance is due 8 weeks before the wedding. 

How many photos will we get? Are they edited? If so, are they colour corrected or completely retouched?

The final number varies as each wedding is different, but you can expect 500+ photos from full day, two photographer coverage and they will be edited in our signature style (as shown on our website).

Do we have to decide now if we want an album?

Bespoke artbook albums are available to order now or after the wedding – just ask if you’d like more details.  

Can we have the digital rights to our photos?

Yes, you will receive printing rights and the licence to reproduce the images for personal, non commercial use. You can share them on social media, make your own prints, books etc. 

Will you submit our wedding images to be published in magazines or online?

Only with your permission!

Do we need to meet before we book?

We’d love to get together for coffee or beer, but as many of our couples live overseas it isn’t always possible, in which case Skype tends to be the next best thing!
