As an elopement and wedding photographer from Inverness, Karen works with couples who are emotionally invested in their photography and want beautiful, natural images and a relaxed vibe on their special day. Since becoming self-employed in 2017, she has captured every kind of wedding imaginable, but nowadays, she focuses on small, intimate, bespoke weddings and elopements as well as traditional, larger weddings where the time schedule is planned around the photography.
