Why choose Alan to photograph your wedding in Edinburgh, Glasgow & Throughout Scotland??

Okay okay, “but Alan, why should I choose you?”, I hear you say…..

I get it - I feel your pain! You’ve done your research for hours online, on social media, and what you’ve found is a LOT of choice and you’re not sure who to go with. You’re utterly confused with the sheer variety of styles, options and prices available. Does that sound familiar?

Or maybe you’ve just begun looking for a photographer and not sure where to start? The overwhelm is real!

Or! Maybe you know EXACTLY what you want and you just need to be sure you’re going to get it. I hear you!

Either way, if you’re anything like me, you’ll want to be sure you’re making the right decision - you’re going to have these photos for life so it's important to get the right photographer for the job. That way, you can get it booked and move on with the wedding planning.

Well, here’s the good news - choose me and you can chill out, knowing you’ve made the right choice & your wedding photos are in good hands!

Having photographed hundreds of weddings in Edinburgh, Glasgow & the UK, I’ve got a wealth of advanced photography knowledge & skills gained over 16 years out in the real world. I go above and beyond many of our competitors using advanced know-how, to ensure I get the best results possible for you and your big day, whatever happens (yes, even if it rains!). In a nutshell, you can trust me to create amazing photos you’ll love to show off to your friends and family!

Alan Snelling Photography was voted by couples on Hitched.com as one of the UK’s best wedding photographers!

(I’ve also got enough highly-recognised awards and photography qualifications to sink a small cruise ship, but we don’t want to boast too much about that, do we Alan?)

My easy-going, fun approach will help you feel comfortable in front of the camera too, so you look your best in your finished wedding photo collection and it won’t feel like a chore (plus I love a wee bit of well-timed silly patter to relax everyone!).

The best thing is, it doesn’t matter whether posed shots are your thing, or you’d prefer a more natural, relaxed documentary-style approach where I capture the moments as they happen, I’ve got you covered either way and I know how to do it properly!  Nothing forced, no unnecessary shenanigans - just the perfect wedding photo collection, tailored to you.

From relaxed family photos, to fun bridal party shots, candid storytelling shots (even blackmail shots of your Uncle Eddie breakdancing if you want those), and those signature bride & groom photos - I’ll tell the story of your wedding and capture it in beautiful, colourful & natural photos that really show off the essence of your big day.

What’s more, my bold, colourful style will faithfully capture the authentic feel of your wedding, whatever vibe you decide on. It doesn’t matter whether you’re having a rustic barn wedding, a lavish bash in a Scottish castle, or a sophisticated wedding in a modern hotel venue, my style will adapt perfectly to yours.

This isn’t your average cookie-cutter wedding photography - this is truly unique, modern, award-winning wedding photography, customised to the two of you - the way it should be!

I cannot recommend Alan and his assistant enough! He went above and beyond on what was an amazing but very difficult day for the family. From helping with organising the bridal party to fixing the computer printer they both felt like part of the family! Our photos were beautiful along with our album. On the day they helped things to run smoothly whilst making sure my husband and I had the best day we possibly could! You deserve more than 5 stars x

Alan was our photographer back in September 2015. He came to our home with some of his work and went over his various packages and from the that moment we knew we had found our perfect photographer. On the day of the wedding he put us both at ease and was very friendly. I would highly recommend Alan for your big day.
