Meet Catriona —

Your Photographer in the Cairngorms National Park

I am a wedding, family, and brand photographer based in the Cairngorms. I have 10 years of experience. I have spent 18 years living in this landscape.

Photography for me has always been about people

how we connect, how we belong, and the moments that reveal what matters most.

When you invite me to photograph your wedding, family or business, you’re not simply booking a photographer. You’re choosing someone who creates a calm, supportive space where you can feel comfortable and truly yourselves.

Over the past 10 years in business, I’ve learned that the best photographs rarely come from perfect posing. They come when people relax, laugh, breathe, and forget about the camera altogether. My role is to gently guide when needed, step back when it matters, and allow real moments to unfold naturally.

Living in the Cairngorms for the past 18 years has shaped how I see and photograph the world. Knowing this landscape means I can guide you to places that feel beautiful and unhurried. You can slow down and enjoy being together. Let the experience become part of the photographs themselves.

Most of all, I want the experience of being photographed to feel easy. It should be enjoyable. This is something you’ll remember with warmth long after the day has passed.

What It Feels Like to Work Together

My role is to create a relaxed space where you can simply be yourselves. Clients often say it feels less like a photoshoot and more like spending time with a supportive friend who happens to have a camera.

With a calm and sensitive approach, I gently guide when needed and step back when the moment is already unfolding naturally. Children can explore, families can laugh, and real moments can happen without pressure.

The aim is simple: for you to feel comfortable, enjoy the experience, and leave with photographs that truly reflect this time in your life.

Experience You Can Trust

After more than 10 years photographing weddings, families and businesses, I’ve learned how to read the rhythm of a moment. I’ve learned when to guide. I’ve also learned when to wait, and when simply to observe.
Living in the Cairngorms for 18 years has given me a deep understanding of the landscape. I appreciate the soft light and the changing seasons. I know the places that feel both beautiful and meaningful to share with others.
This experience allows you to relax into the day. You can feel assured knowing everything is gently taken care of. Meanwhile, the moments that matter unfold naturally.
