‘I love my photos! Debbie was so professional and kind, kept track of exactly what photos I wanted and made it happen! She was flexible and accommodating even after we got a popped tire and couldn’t make it to a shoot location, she found a way to make it work for us! I would definitely recommend her to any bride that needs to build a good team of people to support her. I’m so pleased with my photos and am excited to get them framed and look at them for many years to come!’

Earlier this month, I had the joy of meeting Ashley and Iann, a couple who travelled all the way from Montana, USA, to elope in one of the most incredible places in the world: the Scottish Highlands. They stayed at the beautifully secluded Torridon Hotel, a luxury retreat tucked beneath ancient pines and surrounded by lochs and mountains. As a Scotland elopement photographer, I never take this landscape for granted. There’s something about Torridon, its stillness, its wildness. that seems to echo the deepest parts of love: quiet, enduring, and honest.

Ashley and Iann wanted something simple and true to who they are. And that’s exactly what the Highlands gave them. We spent a few peaceful hours exploring the rugged trails near the hotel, capturing portraits with views stretching over to Beinn Alligin, a majestic and craggy peak that holds court over the Glen. The light shifted constantly on the snow covered mountain tops, mist, soft rain and they embraced it all with a quiet sense of calm and joy. Ashley wasn’t phased by the weather or her dress brushing against the ground. With her boots laced up and hair dancing in the breeze, she was completely present, laughing, soaking in the view, and holding Iann close.

Why Choose The Torridon Hotel for Your Elopement?

If you’re planning a Scottish Highlands elopement, The Torridon Hotel offers something truly special. It’s luxurious yet rooted in nature, with roaring fires, warm Highland hospitality, and views that take your breath away.

With mountains, lochs, and coastal trails just a short walk away, the photo opportunities are endless.
