As an Edinburgh photographer, I feel incredibly lucky to live and work in such a beautiful and historic city. Edinburgh attracts visitors from all over the world with its unique mix of old-world charm and dramatic natural landscapes.

What I love most is how accessible nature is here. You don’t need to drive far to find breathtaking scenery — simply walk down the Royal Mile, pass the majestic Holyrood Palace, and suddenly you’re surrounded by the towering Salisbury Crags. From there, you can admire panoramic views of the city on one side, and the striking Arthur’s Seat on the other — the highest point in Edinburgh and, personally, my favourite part of the city.

I had the pleasure of exploring this stunning location during a couple session with a lovely pair. We wandered through the open green spaces, enjoyed the peaceful surroundings, and captured some natural, relaxed moments with Edinburgh’s skyline in the background. It was one of those shoots where everything just felt right — the light, the laughter, the scenery.

If you're planning a couple session in Edinburgh and love the idea of combining city charm with scenic views, Arthur’s Seat and Salisbury Crags are absolutely worth considering.
