A moment frozen in time—photos that allow you to hold a feeling in your hands. 
With all the little things you might not even notice that capture you as a couple. The in-between moments, glances, crinkle-eye smiles, goosebumps. There's nothing more beautiful to me than the pure joy, excitement, and comfort of two people wildly in love.

My approach to elopements and sessions is rooted in ease and presence. I'll guide you when needed, offering prompts to help you connect—but my heart lies in simply letting you be, together in your own rhythm, however that looks for you. It's in those honest, unguarded moments that the magic happens. 

Getting to know you from the moment you reach out allows me to tell your story in a way that truly feels like you. My hope is that when you look back at your photographs—months or years from now—they carry you straight back to that moment: the way it felt, the sounds in the air, the scents on the wind, and the memories you made together. 
I'm here with you for the whole journey—from vendor recommendations and location scouting to planning your elopement or session with care.

The journey & the details

Sara & Aleks

"Joni photographed our elopement in May and we cannot thank her enough for images she delivered. It took us a week to fully calm down and absorb them. She is the kindest soul, made us feel confident and relaxed so much that sometimes we forgot she was actually there. Our gallery looks as if it fell from Disney fairytale. Truly, look no further, you will be over the moon with your wedding photos if Joni will be the one to document your special day"

This is the moment it all leads to-the day you choose each other, fully and freely. As you soak in every second-wind in your hair, laughter in your lungs, vows whispered in to the air-I'll be there, quietly and wholeheartedly. Capturing the real, raw and fleeting moments as they unfold. Nothing forced-just the truth of your love, turned in to art that you'll hold close for a lifetime. 

part 03: the heart of it all

From dreams to something real and wildly you. Once you're booked, we dive deeper into your story. I'll send over a thoughtful questionnaire to get to know you both even better—your connection, your story, and what truly matters to you. From there, we'll work closely together to shape a day that feels effortless, meaningful, and deeply personal. Whether you choose to elope in amongst the mountains, on the beautiful coast or deep in an ancient forest, I'll be right by your side, helping you bring it all to life. 

part 02: Weaving the Wild together

Your journey begins with a simple hello.

Our call is a relaxed, heart-to-heart space to explore your vision, answer your questions, and see if it feels like a perfect fit. When you're ready, we make it official-and the adventure begins.

How do I book?


I am so grateful and honoured that you would like to work together! If you fill out my contact form with all your beautiful plans or visions for your day, I always aim to respond within 24 hours (if for any reason you have not received a response, be sure to check your spam!). 
I will send over my pricing guide and once you have decided on the package that is right for your day, it's just a case of signing your contract, booking form and a 30% deposit and you're all booked in!

Do you photograph all over Scotland?

Absolutely! I am down for any part of Scotland that you want to run away to, whether thats mainland or any of the islands. All of my packages include my travel, so there are no added charges.

How many photos will we receive?

I generally don't have a set amount that I deliver, however for all 4 hour elopements, intimate wedding and vow renewals you will receive a minimum of 250 photos and for all 2 hour couples sessions you will receive a minimum of 125.
I truly believe in quality over quantity and will make sure to include all of the crucial and important photos of your day/session.

Can we print our photos and do you offer albums? 

Of course!! Your gallery has an integrated shop for you to print your photos and create your own albums. All of my packages include something tangible for you to take away with you. I think it is so important to print your photos. 

What happens it if rains?

One of the many unpredictabilities of the Scottish weather is that there is a good chance it may rain. I honestly would say the best thing to do is to embrace it! Don't be afraid to get a little wet and mucky. I will have goodies to keep you warm and dry you off afterwards!

Are you fully insured?

Of course, I have full public and product liability and professional indemnity insurance! Keeping us all safe :)

What happens if we need to reschedule or cancel?

I completely understand, sometimes life throws a curveball and things change. I will always do my best to accommodate any rescheduling of dates. If I am unavailable for your new date, I am happy to offer a list of available trusted photographers in Scotland that could cover your date; where they would shoot your day and I would edit your photos. However, If you would be more comfortable cancelling and finding an alternative photographer yourself then depending on the date of cancelling, I would require a cancellation fee of 35% of your booking. Please note all deposits are non-refundable.
