Immortalising your Isle of Skye elopement wedding day with an oil painting that becomes an heirloom outliving the day for generations

Hello - Failte/Welcome

Why a Wedding Painting?

A once-in-a-lifetime landscape deserves a once-in-a-lifetime artwork.

On the Isle of Skye, every wedding feels like a scene from a painting — wild mountains, shifting light, ancient beauty. A wedding painting transforms that emotion into a luxury artwork you’ll treasure
for generations.

  • An unforgettable guest experience
  • A rare luxury for high-end weddings
  • An heirloom that outlasts even the memories of those present
  • Created by a lifelong Skye artist
  • Perfect for destination weddings and elopements

 

Today, I bring that experience, intuition, and storytelling to a timeless medium: fine art oil painting. Beyond documenting a moment, a painting deepens it—distilling the light, emotion, and atmosphere of your day into a single image that becomes an heirloom. Something you will hang
in your home, pass down, and treasure long after the last dance.

I specialise in capturing Skye’s dramatic landscapes and the emotion of the day through layered, expressive oils. Whether painting live at your celebration or creating a detailed studio piece from
photos, every artwork is created to be a legacy. For over 15 years I’ve worked in the wedding world as a professional photographer—capturing hundreds of ceremonies, elopements, and celebrations
among the dramatic cliffs, ancient ruins, and wild coastlines of my home.

 

I work live at weddings across Skye, the Highlands, and islands, or create a detailed studio painting from your favourite photographs.

My mission is simple: to turn the magic of your Isle of Skye elopement wedding into a piece of art that feels as unforgettable as the place itself.
