Welcoming all couples who find a deep connection in the great outdoors.
Scotland, the home of wild romance.
Do you dream of escaping day-to-day life and setting off on an epic adventure for your elopement? Are you ready to make memories that will last a lifetime?
If so, we’re here to make it happen for you.
We specialize in Scotland elopements, shooting there every June (the perfect shoulder season, with warmer weather and fewer tourists).
With its moody glens, endless history and ancient castles, Scotland is rugged and romantic to its very core, making it the PERFECT elopement location.
So, pack your bags, grab your passport and let’s go on an incredible international elopement and honeymoon adventure all in one!
Meet your photographers
Hey, we’re Chad and Vanessa, aka ‘The Outlovers’ and we’d be super excited to be your Scotland elopement photographers.
Vanessa is from Scotland originally – she spent the first 20 years of her life growing up there – and we now go back every June. We know the country inside out: the most famous spots that you’ll no doubt want to see, but also the lesser known gems that most tourists don’t make it to.
Having someone who knows the place like a local, but who is in the same country as you during the planning process, is a dream.
There’s no battling with different time zones, no language barriers (have you TRIED understanding a strong Scottish accent?!), and no cultural differences when it comes to customer service expectations.
It really is the best of both worlds.
As your Scotland elopement photographers, we’ll guide you through the whole planning process and will be ready to act as your unofficial local tour guides once we hit the ground in Scotland!
“TLDR: The Outlovers are phenomenal people…”
“…their work product is spectacular, and they will go above and beyond for you.”
– Kaylee & Jake
We’re not only your Scotland elopement photographers…

While Chad continues to shoot, Vanessa will lead a heartfelt ceremony written just for the two of you and reflective of your personal story and beliefs.
*** Please note, this will be ceremonial only and will not legally marry you. Most of our couples do the paperwork back home for simplicity. ***
We offer video, too!
Coz photos and video go together like peanut butter and jelly!
We offer an optional mini video add-on for those couples who want their love captured in motion.
Just imagine being transported back to that magical day when you’re grey and old, looking back on a life well-lived.
