Glasgow Documentary Wedding’s
A wedding is more than the moments you plan.
The people who gather around you, the reactions you don't see, the conversations that happen while you're somewhere else. These are all part of your wedding story.
I photograph weddings with the eye of a documentary photographer, paying attention to people, relationships and the atmosphere as the day unfolds. My aim is to give you the freedom to experience your wedding fully, then bring together a collection of photographs that lets you discover more of it afterwards.
Not a day directed around photographs. A visual story of the day you lived.
I am a Glasgow based wedding photographer, having covered traditional and contemporary weddings, and culturally diverse celebrations with a documentary approach, Scott will deliver the curated story of your day in photographic form for you to relive the day, time and time again.
Every couple, each wedding, all families are unique and therefore your photographs should also be unique. My approach is to record all the elements of your day in beautiful and natural photographs that when put together transports you back to that day, those cherished moments, the laughter, the tears, and the cheers.
“Scott, yesterday when you delivered our wedding photos … WOW! My mum, Steven and I were completely overwhelmed with emotion. I cried so much with happiness!!”
I am not just there as your photographer, I am experiencing the feeling of the day you have been meticulously planning. This means when it comes to editing and curating the story of your day I can draw out that emotion through visual storytelling and music. To see the end result check out the photo film on this page, but remember, each day is different.
I make a visual record of the day as it actually happens, whilst you get to fully enjoy the day you have been planning, interacting with the people you’ve chosen to share a special moment in time with whilst I unobtrusively record it for you to look back on for years to come.
“It is so beautiful the way you work, weaving quietly in and out and all with so much respect for the natural unfolding of the day.”
My greatest joy comes when couples look at the images for the first time and start to piece together all the special moments that made their day wonderful and unique.
“It was wonderful for me to be able to see parts of the story of our wedding that I didn't get to see on the day, like these morning shots. Thank so much Scott.”
My work is very much in the photojournalistic - documentary style of wedding photography with little to no direction given to the bridal party and guests, therefore, maintaining the ethos of genuine moments. Editing style is a blend of documentary wedding photography and editorial wedding photography, providing storytelling of your day in clean well composed imagery.

What you can expect
All wedding packages receive a photo film edited to tell the story of your wedding day as it unfolded. These will vary in length as they are curated to tell the story of your day. You will be excited to see the photographs of your wedding day, you will receive at least 12 easy to share preview images within 48hrs of your wedding. The main event your photo film and all edited digital images will be delivered to you within 21days.
As a photographer I look for the moments, the laughter, the connection and the light. All of these make for photographs you will want to look back on time and time again much like the family photographs of the past, that connect and make memories forever.
Where the story of your day comes to life.
Documentary storytelling does not end on the day of your wedding, I will then edit the images into curated photo film which captures the day as it unfolded. All the details, the people, relationships, emotion and fun of the day for you to revisit at any time.
Glasgow Documentary Photography has a core belief of authenticity from start to finish, working with intention, with passion, and with people at the heart of it all. Every detail here reflects that mindset.
Steven and Gedaina came together in marriage in the beautiful setting of Kelburn castle and estate, North Ayrshire, Scotland. It was a multicultural wedding with Steven from Scotland and Gedaina, Brazil. The wedding photographs in a documentary style tell the story of their day, the people, the moments and emotion. Generally I work in candid moments, not interrupting the day. The final edit is what you can expect when you book me to document your day, each day is different and will be put together with music that reflects the vibe of each stage in the day.

Small Weddings & Elopements
A smaller wedding, told with the same care.
£450
Planning a relaxed wedding in Glasgow with your closest family and friends, or an intimate elopement somewhere in Scotland? You don’t need a large wedding or a full day of photography to have a story worth telling.
I photograph small weddings with the same documentary approach: paying attention to the people, interactions and moments that make your day yours, without directing events around the camera.
With up to three hours of coverage, we’ll discuss what matters most to you and agree a bespoke approach that fits your plans. The aim is to create a considered collection of photographs that tells the story of your day, from the moments you expect to the small details and interactions you might otherwise miss.
Your investment includes:
Up to 3 hours of documentary wedding photography
A carefully curated and edited collection, averaging 100+ photographs
All finished images delivered digitally, in colour and black & white
Every small wedding is different, so the final collection will reflect your plans and the moments that unfold.
A £250 Reserve the Date Fee secures your booking and is deducted from the final balance.
Your wedding, beyond what you see
Full-day documentary wedding photography
£1,800
Your wedding will be one of the few occasions when many of the people who matter most to you are gathered in one place. You'll spend the day with them, but you won't see everything.
You won't see every reaction during the ceremony. You won't hear every conversation, catch every exchange between old friends, or know what was happening in the room while you were somewhere else.
That's where I come in.
I photograph weddings by paying attention to people: how they respond to one another, the relationships that surface, the anticipation, the humour, the emotion and the small moments that might otherwise pass unnoticed.
I work unobtrusively, allowing your day to unfold rather than turning it into a series of photographic instructions. I'll be there from the start of your preparations through the ceremony and celebrations, looking beyond the obvious events to the people and interactions that give them meaning.
I'm not trying to make your wedding look like somebody else's idea of a perfect day. I'm there to document yours.
A story you can return to
After the wedding, I carefully select and edit your photographs, bringing them together into a visual story of the day. The collection includes the moments you remember, alongside those you couldn't have seen for yourself.
The result is not simply a record of where you went and what you did. It's a way to revisit the atmosphere of the day, reconnect with the people who shared it, and discover moments that were happening beyond your own experience.
Your photographs are also brought together in a curated photo film, with music chosen to reflect the unfolding story. It's another way to return to the day, whether you watch it together, share it with family or revisit it years from now.
Your day, fully documented
I'll arrive at the start of your preparations and remain through the ceremony, the time spent with your guests, the speeches and celebrations, the cake cutting and first dances. I usually stay for a short time as the evening party gets underway.
With up to 12 hours of coverage, there's time for the story to develop naturally. I'm there for the significant events, but also for the quieter moments, the unexpected interactions and the details that help bring the whole day back to life.
What your full-day coverage includes
Up to 12 hours of documentary wedding photography.
A curated collection of professionally edited digital photographs, averaging 400+ images.
A photo film bringing selected photographs together with music.
At least 12 preview images within 24 hours.
Your completed photo collection and photo film delivered within 21 days.
A considered mix of colour and black-and-white photographs.
For couples who want to be present in their wedding, and photographs that let them experience more of it afterwards.
Full-day documentary wedding photography: £1,800
A £250 Reserve the Date Fee secures your wedding date and is deducted from the final balance.
A focused story of your wedding
Half-day documentary wedding photography
£800
You don't need a full day of photography to tell a meaningful story.
Perhaps you're planning a smaller wedding, an intimate celebration, or you simply want the most important part of your day documented without having a photographer present from morning until night.
My half-day approach is about understanding what matters most to you, then giving those moments the attention they deserve.
Before your wedding, we'll talk through your plans and develop a schedule together. This gives me a clear understanding of the parts of the day that matter most, while leaving room for the unexpected moments that make documentary photography so rewarding.
I might photograph the anticipation as you and your guests arrive, the atmosphere before the ceremony, the exchange of vows, the details you've chosen with care, and the conversations and connections that unfold during your drinks reception.
I won't be asking you to recreate moments or constantly interrupting your time with family and friends. I'll work unobtrusively, observing how the day unfolds and looking beyond the obvious events to the expressions, interactions and small details that bring it to life.
The aim isn't to photograph less of your wedding. It's to tell the story of the part that matters most to you.
A story shaped around your day
Every wedding has its own character. My job is to recognise what makes yours distinctive and bring those moments together in a carefully curated collection of photographs.
Rather than delivering a set of images with no connection beyond the date they were taken, I'll select and edit your photographs to create a visual account of your celebration. The result is a story you can revisit, share and discover more of over time.
What your half-day coverage includes
Up to five hours of documentary wedding photography.
A planning conversation and agreed schedule tailored to your wedding.
Coverage of the agreed parts of your day, typically including arrivals, the ceremony, details and candid moments during the drinks reception.
A carefully curated collection of professionally edited digital photographs, averaging 200+ images.
Photographs in colour and black and white, selected according to the moment and the story each image tells.
At least 12 preview images within 24 hours of your wedding.
Your completed photo collection delivered within 21 days.
Is this the right approach for you?
This package is ideal if you're planning an intimate wedding, a smaller celebration, or a day where you want the focus to be on a particular part of the experience.
It's also suited to couples who value genuine interactions over staged photographs and want to spend their time with the people they've invited, rather than organising the day around a camera.
We'll agree the coverage beforehand so you know what to expect and I understand what matters to you. Within that plan, I'll pay attention to the moments you couldn't have scheduled, but may be especially glad to have remembered.
Half-day documentary wedding photography: £800
A £250 Reserve the Date Fee secures your wedding date and is deducted from the final balance.
There are no hidden costs to my wedding packages, the reservation fee is deducted from the total price of the package, you receive a photo film and all edited digital images. Additional cost if you choose to print via the online platform Pic-Time take a look at how your gallery will be presented and the multiple option open for you, family and friends to store memories in the format of framed and unframed prints, albums, and much more. This allows the flexibility for you all to print as you wish for at least 1 year after the wedding.
Client Reviews
Scott, yesterday when you delivered our wedding photos …
WOW! My mum, Steven and I were completely overwhelmed with emotion. I cried so much with happiness!!
The photos are absolutely beautiful, but what touched us the most was the delicacy and emotion captured in every single image. They truly touched our souls.
Looking through the photos, we felt like we were reliving every moment of our wedding day the little details, the emotions, the smiles, the love, and all those precious moments that went by so quickly.
You didn't just take photographs; you captured memories, feelings and moments that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. Your work is incredibly special, and we feel so lucky to have had you there to tell the story of our day through your beautiful photography.
