Edinburgh — part of the Lothians — is one of the UK's most-photographed wedding cities, with castle, country-house and Old Town options. Photographers working in Edinburgh are regularly booked at venues like Prestonfield House, The Balmoral and Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh.

Expect to pay roughly £2,005–£3,500 for a full wedding day for a photographer in Edinburgh. Quotes move on hours of coverage, second shooter, album/print package and edit turnaround.

For weddings we recommend booking 6–12 months ahead. For portraits and events, 2–4 weeks is usually enough. Edinburgh demand spikes May–September — book ahead for peak weekends.
