Oh hey, I'm Janine

I'm Janine. I'm a dog obsessed outdoors lover, wife, first time mama and live to take great photos of even better people

I CAN'T IMAGINE DOING ANYTHING ELSE

I live in Glasgow, Scotland with my favourite human Karl. He's as hilarious as he is handsome. We have an adorable and increasingly sassy baby girl and a cheeky, constantly muddy cockapoo.

I’m a bit of a social butterfly, I love to chat, tell stories, laugh and make friends at each and every wedding and I always hug goodbye, no matter how sweaty you are on the dancefloor.

I absolutely love photographing weddings and while I want you to have picture perfect wedding photos, I also want you to enjoy the moments and get amazing photos in the process.

I’ll photograph all your details because I love all of the care that goes into crafting a wedding. I enjoy capturing candid photos of your guests, trying to catch all the little moments that you’ll miss. It’s my mission to get at least one decent photo of every single person present.

There’ll be times when I’ll gently guide things along. I keep an eye on the time so my couples don't have to. I want you to feel relaxed, unhurried, in the moment.

Sometimes I’ll take a chance if I see an opportunity for an idea. I’ve waded mid thigh into Loch Lomond, trekked up hills, gotten soaked in the rain more times than I care to count and I've been known to steal people away from dessert for a sunset. (Which aren't as common as Pinterest would have you believe).
