ELOPEMENTS & MICRO WEDDINGS

When it rains on your wedding day and it still looks like it belongs in a movie. Earlier this week I had the joy of being part of a styled shoot in Barcelona with @sparklingmoments.events. Whilst I wait for the film scans to come back from the lab here’s a sneak peek from my little Osmo Pocket camera.

The moment vs the photos as a film wedding photographer ✨

I’m still obsessed with all the photos I took at @velvet.and.linen.workshops last April and it was a perfect opportunity to perfect my darkroom development and scanning skills!

Hi I’m Loraine and I’m a wedding and elopement photographer based in Scotland. Here’s a glimpse into some of the amazing places I get to photograph. If you are looking for a photographer for your wedding, elopement or couples photoshoot get in touch today. I still have some limited availability for 2025 and 2026.

Happy International Women’s day ✨
This year feels very poignant to me as I’m currently 8 weeks post surgery for Endometriosis. The medical misogyny I’ve faced dealing with this condition continues to make me so angry. In 2025 we should not be having our pain dismissed and told it’s “normal”, be told that it would only be looked at “when we want to have children”.

I can’t believe that this year marks 10 years of me being self employed and it’s nearly 16 years since I photographed my first wedding. Big love to all my fellow female business owners. I feel so lucky that I get to do this for a job.

I’m also going to take the opportunity to say:
You are never too much or not enough
Abortion is healthcare
Trans women are women
If your feminism isn’t intersectional it’s bullshit
Tell the females in your life that you love them

The photographer & the photos #onfilm

Intentional storytelling where romance and nostalgia meets art

Booking now for 2025 & 2026

I’ve been loving looking back at all the super 8 footage I captured last year and the stunning nostalgic feel. I’ve always loved all my great granny’s films of our family from the 1960s & 70s so it’s been a joy bringing it into my own work alongside my digital and film photography.

The magical autumn Scottish wedding of @nicolle_lynn & @bryendesjardin from last September was just so perfect for super 8.

Oh-my-gosh I still can’t get over the beautiful autumnal colours and feel of the beautiful @maplehursthouse in the Scottish Borders.

They had their first look under the historic trees before saying their personal vows to each other. Then had a ceremony with their closest friends and family on the lawn.

Thank you again for having me capture your dream of a day.
