Welcome to Janie Barclay Wedding Photography

BA (Hons) Fine Art: Photographic and Electronic Media.
Wedding Photography in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Perth, Perthshire, Dundee and throughout Scotland.

My approach to weddings is an artistic one. I combine the best of directed formal groups and fine art imagery with spontaneous reportage photography. I think the most original and exciting wedding photographs are born from a fusion of classical lighting and posing with artistic and contemporary ideas. I photograph to tell the story of your wedding in images that will capture every moment of your day.



I love wedding photography and I hope the joy I feel at each and every wedding comes across in the photographs I capture. Together we will create something really beautiful for you to remember and treasure forever. We travel throughout Scotland, we are based in Aberdeen where there are many lovely venues for your special day. If you are planning on having your wedding in Aberdeen / Aberdeenshire or even further a field please check my links page to see the venues we love.

Your wedding day is a day full of intense emotion and is one of the most memorable of your life. Let me help you capture those moments. I am there to ensure that this wonderful day of yours becomes a collection of beautiful images telling your story in an artistic and elegant way. I always try to push my photographic boundaries, giving you photographs of the highest possible standard.



Have a look at some of my work here. As you will see I love to capture those spontaneous moments, but I also like to add some more posed, formal shots that help to create the unique story of your wedding.

I believe that whilst �catching the moment� is vital in my wedding photography it is also very important not to forget the more formal posed shots. I think they can be some of the best of the day. The art of posing is often overlooked today which is a great shame. This is also the time when the photographer has the chance to show off to everyone the wonderful colours of the dresses and flowers, the intricacy of the hair do�s, the artistry of the makeup, even the amazing and unusual shoes that have been so carefully and painstakingly chosen. I pose the groups in a way that complements all these things.



I recommend a pre-wedding shoot. I feel it�s such a good chance to get to know one another and to learn to relax in front of the camera. It�s something I do for free for my clients simply because I know it works for us both.

I want to help you remember every detail of your very special day. Thank you for reading this and please feel free to contact me at any time.
