The Balmoral Hotel wedding

As an Edinburgh wedding photographer, I love returning to familiar venues and seeing them with fresh eyes—and The Balmoral Hotel never disappoints. One of the city’s most iconic landmarks, its clock tower can be spotted from Calton Hill and is beautifully lit up at night. Set on Princes Street, The Balmoral offers a truly grand entrance and an elegant backdrop for a wedding day.

This wasn’t my first time photographing a wedding at The Balmoral, but it’s always a joy to return. What makes this venue extra special is the opportunity to access the roof—a rare and unique spot for wedding portraits with stunning views over Edinburgh’s skyline.

On this chilly day, I had the pleasure of photographing a wonderful couple who embraced the weather and made the most of every moment. From rooftop portraits to a relaxed walk through Princes Street Gardens, we captured their love story with a blend of natural light and authentic emotion.

I always aim to tell the story of the day through documentary-style wedding photography—unposed, real, and full of atmosphere. Edinburgh’s streets, historic buildings, and ever-changing skies add so much character to each frame. It was a privilege to document this beautiful celebration in the heart of the city.
