YOUR WEDDING EXPERIENCE
Shetland to Santorini;
Marrakech to Madeira
Your story: for you, by me.
You don’t have to choose between the timeless beauty of editorial imagery and the nostalgic essence of photos that feel like movie stills.
YOU JUST NEED A PHOTOGRAPHER WHOSE STYLE IS A FUSION OF BOTH.
Sometimes it’s giving Pride and Prejudice - wide, dramatic, like a sweeping romance.
Sometimes it’s grainy and close, like an old film you found in a drawer.
Sometimes it’s just… you, caught in a frame.
Every image I take is crafted - for the people in it.
Not just what you looked like, but what it meant.
The feeling. The memory. How it moved through you, and how I saw it.
That, to me, is the essence of a story well told.
A story told for you, by someone who genuinely cares.
Born from a relationship deeper than just photographer and client.
One built on trust, ease, and real connection -
so when you look back, it’s not just nostalgia, it’s recognition.
That was us. That was real.
YOUR ADVENTURE MADE ART
A poetry of colour and light,
with you as the main characters.
Where you see yourselves in the photos
and feel understood.
Some moments call for precision. Others ask for patience.
That’s why I shoot both digital and film - to honour the full rhythm of your day.
Digital gives us freedom. It’s fast, flexible, and lets me capture everything unfolding around us - the big moments, the fleeting ones, the quiet in-betweens.
Film brings the poetry. It slows things down. It demands presence. It gives softness, grit, and soul — and sometimes, the most honest version of a memory.
I blend both intentionally.
So when you look back, you’ll see your story told in full colour, texture, and truth - just as it was.
Digital and 35mm film: the best of both.
Digital gives us freedom; film brings the poetry.
It’s not always the kiss or the confetti that ends up framed.
Sometimes it’s a breath. A touch. A quiet kind of magic.
A quiet breath. A thumb rubbed over knuckles. The kind of silence that says more than words.
Small intimacy. Humble moments.
The things that don’t scream for attention - but define the day.
Then the frame shifts.
Front-row grins. Craned necks in the back.
Your people mid catch up, raising glasses, wiping tears, full-volume joy.
That champagne pop. That one wild kiss.
At the centre of it all, you two.
Present, a little undone, completely wrapped up in each other.
Then we zoom out again and there it is.
The whole scene. The space. The choices you made without realising they’d mean so much.
The light. The textures. The place that held it all.
Layer by layer. Real over rushed. Nothing added. Nothing missed.
PICTURE
Her wonderful-ness goes way beyond her talent.
Although we hadn't actually met in person until last week, WE instantly felt at ease with her.
"There's no amount of words to explain how wonderfully talented Susan is. We knew from the second we saw her work that she was the one to plan & photograph our elopement.
She's made this experience so seamless, she's gone above & beyond to ensure everything was perfect for us. I wish I could bottle up the feeling we were able to have on our wedding day and just live it on repeat."
- BENJAMIN + STEPHANIE
THE FULL
That soul-deep freedom.
The let’s go exploring, ooh that looks tasty, what’s over there? energy.
Waking up somewhere new, wondering what the day might bring - and knowing it could be anything.
Maybe it’s the way the morning light hits the rooftops.
Or cocktails on the docks.
Birds overhead, boats bobbing below.
It’s poolside toasts with your best people.
Wandering hand-in-hand through the old part of town.
Getting wrapped up in a culture, a tradition, a language that’s not your own - but feels like it’s part of your story now.
The adventure isn’t just the location.
It’s the way you’re in it - curious, connected, completely present.
And I’ll be right there with you, camera in hand, catching it all.
Adventure awaits...
I want to give you the elegance of the editorial, alight with the rawness of the real.
The spirit of adventure, the wonder of the world and the beautiful ordinary...
DESTINATION WEDDINGS AND ELOPEMENTS
All at once.
Getting married abroad is a decision to do something bold.
To leave the ordinary behind, passports in hand, chasing something that feels a little wild - a little more you.
So that’s how we’ll do it.
I’ll be there for a few days, not just one - no panicked arrivals, no rushed hellos. We’ll explore the venue together, settle in, and find the rhythm of the place.
You’ll feel confident, calm, and ready to actually enjoy it.
And because you didn’t choose this destination by accident, we’ll make the most of it.
Whether it’s sunrise on cobbled streets or an afternoon chasing golden light through the hills, we’ll carve out time just for the two of you.
No pressure, just space to be yourselves, in a place that means something.
I’ve lived overseas. Planned my own destination wedding in Kenya. Shot love stories across the globe.
So if the timeline shifts or the weather turns or the ceremony starts 40 minutes late?
We roll with it. With humour. With grace. With trust.
That’s what it looks like to do this together.
This isn’t a package - it’s an experience. And I’ll be there for all of it.
What it looks like to do this together:
You choose them for how it feels to have them by your side.
For how they see what you don’t.
For how they hold the moment - quietly, confidently - and let you live it.
That’s the difference.
And that’s what lasts.
I’ve photographed weddings across Scotland, Europe, and further afield - from the misty mountaintops of the Isle of Skye to the coastlines of Iceland.
My work is shaped by cinematography, nature, and art - and rooted in a background in English Literature and Film and Visual Culture.
But more than anything, it’s shaped by you.
This is what I do.
With calm. With care. With everything I’ve got.
If you feel it - I’m your photographer.
(OK, elevator pitch, here goes…)

You’re allowed to have a favourite side, ask for a blemish edit, and still be the badass who climbs a mountain in boots for the shot. I get it - because I am that girl too. The one who wants to look elegant and editorial, but also wants it to feel real.
What matters just as much as the final photos is how it feels to be photographed.
If you want a photographer who feels like a friend, who can guide the day while keeping it easy - I’m here for that.
The vibe, the energy, the connection we share.
It shows in every single frame.
You can be glam and hike UP a hill.
Because when you feel good,
you look even better.

3. Confirm your booking by accepting the quote, paying the deposit and signing the contract
4. Stay in touch, enjoy the process and the results!
How do we receive our images?
I use an online gallery platform, the perfect way for you to experience your images digitally on computer, tablet or phone. You can download the images in the gallery here and also access the store. You receive Sneak Peeks and then your Full Gallery here. Once you've received your full set of images, I'll send you a link to select images for your wedding album. From there I'll design it, send you an online proof and once you're happy, it's ordered and delivered to your door!
What's your availability like?
I open my diary a year in advance so that I can book and plan my year intentionally. In order to ensure each couple gets the attention and level of professionalism from me that they deserve, I do limit the number of bookings I take.
Each couple's story should be a work of art and therefore although the diary may open on a certain date, I will only book in with clients that I feel I click with and in order to deliver the very best imagery of their wedding, elopement or portrait session.
Do we have to feed you?
On your wedding day, yes please. Up to 12 hours on my feet means my body and brain are pulling out the stops to capture every moment for you. Me refuelling while you’re eating means you don’t get unwanted snaps of people with their mouths full, and means I’m recharged in time for all the after meal action.
It doesn’t have to be the three course meal you’re serving your guests - just something hot and vegan for me to eat in the back - and I’m a happy photographer ready for the evening.
If you're eloping and we're somewhere wild and wonderful, with only a few hours coverage, I am more than happy to bring my own - as long as we discuss beforehand so I am aware!
Do we own the images once you send them?
What Susan Sees Photography will have and will always have copyright and ownership of the images. When you receive them, you then have printing rights to the images, which means you can print them, post them on social media, blog them, email them to your family. What you don't have the right to do is re-edit them, sell them, use them for marketing purposes to earn a profit, or claim them as your own. All the nitty gritty is in the paperwork I’ll send you.
How many images will we get?
I don't have an exact amount of images that I guarantee because every wedding is so different and it depends of so many things - how long I'm there, how many guests, locations etc. What I will say is the wedding/elopement galleries usually are between 600 and 800 images based on the factors above, and story sessions are mostly between 100 and 150 images. If it's a good photo, you'll get it!
Can we choose the type of album that's included?
Yes! I try and make the process as personalised as possible.
Once you receive your full set of images, I'll send you a PDF with all the album options. You get to choose the cover colour from nine options and what is embossed on the front (three lines of text). If you'd like to upgrade to more pages or a different size of album, you'll be able to see the price list included.
Once you have chosen which album size you'd like, you'll receive a selection link to choose the images you'd like to include. From there I design the album, send you an online version and make any adjustments you'd like. It's only ordered once you've approved the online version to be to your liking.
Can we have the RAW images?
Simply answered, no. RAW files are unprocessed image files and they take up a heap of space, not to mention you need professional software to be able to open them. Plus you really don’t need 20 photos of you blinking, I promise. When you hire me, you're doing so because you like examples of my work. My post-shoot process is an enormous part of what you see and editing is where so much of my signature style comes into play. I promise not to withhold any images that you're hoping for.
Do you have a limit of how many weddings you do?
Yes. I do not is book in every single wedding enquiry that comes my way. I do this so that my couples get the best experience possible and so I don't burn out. When it comes to weddings, it's about providing quality to my clients, not about squeeing in as many weddings as I can.
