For the romantics & old souls

1. Dean Village, Edinburgh

Cobblestone streets, ivy-covered cottages, and a soft whisper of the Water of Leith. This fairy-tale setting is perfect for couples who dream in vintage tones.

2. Culross, Fife

A 17th-century village so untouched it feels like a movie set (which it is, Outlander fans, you’re welcome). Add a sunset, and it’s pure magic.

3. Dunrobin Castle Gardens

Think Versailles, but in the Highlands. Manicured hedges, sweeping sea views, and grand stone staircases.

For the wild-hearted & adventurous

4. The Quiraing, Isle of Skye

Epic doesn’t begin to describe it. Jagged peaks, moody clouds, and rolling hills that look like a painting. Just make sure you bring sturdy boots and a sense of adventure.

5. Glencoe Valley

A rugged, dramatic backdrop where love stands tall against nature’s power. Golden hour here? Otherworldly.

6. Loch Ard & the Trossachs

Forest reflections, serene water, and fewer crowds than Loch Lomond. It’s a dream for peaceful, earthy vibes.

For the coastal dreamers

7. Elie Beach, Fife

Golden sands, pastel skies, and a lighthouse to boot. Great for sunset strolls and spontaneous splashes.

8. Seacliff Beach, East Lothian

Hidden gem alert: wide-open beaches, views of the ruined Tantallon Castle, cinematic romance.

9. Luskentyre Beach, Isle of Harris

Yes, this is Scotland, not the Caribbean. Turquoise water, white sands, and peace so pure it’s almost surreal.

For the urban cool couples

10. Glasgow’s West End

Murals, botanical gardens, quirky cafés. It’s gritty meets glam, perfect for editorial-style shots and candid laughs.

11. The Vennel, Edinburgh

That iconic castle-in-the-background shot, but with a modern twist. Secret alleys and staircases make it feel like your own private storybook.

12. Dundee Waterfront

Modern architecture, urban backdrops, and wide skies. Pairs well with bold fashion choices and a whole lot of sass.

Pro tip

Scotland’s weather changes its mood like a toddler with snacks. We always scout backup spots, carry clear umbrellas, and embrace whatever the skies give us, it’s part of the story. Rain? We make it art.

Your story is one of a kind, let’s shoot it somewhere that feels the same.
