Alastair Burn-Murdoch Photography

Alastair Burn-Murdoch Photography is a Bonnyrigg-based specialist in wedding photography, focused on capturing the real emotions and joyful moments that make each wedding unique. With 20 years' experience working as a husband-and-wife team, Alastair and his partner bring a calm, professional presence to your day so you can relax and enjoy being married — while they quietly document it in a natural, reportage style. Why choose us? We believe the best wedding photos come from genuine moments rather than staged poses. Our approach is documentary-led: we look for those fleeting expressions, the small details and the spontaneous laughter that tell the story of your wedding day. That documentary sensibility is combined with a creative eye — the result is wedding photography that feels both true and beautiful, perfect for sharing and for a stunning, high-quality album. What makes our work special is a blend of traditional craft and modern storytelling. Alastair’s darkroom training gives him a considered approach to composition and finish, and every photograph is personally edited to bring out the best in both colour and black-and-white. We pride ourselves on producing images with a timeless quality — whether you want lively colour or classic monochrome, we prepare each image with care so your wedding photos will look superb on screen, in print or in an album. How we work: from our base in Bonnyrigg we cover weddings across the local area and beyond. We start by getting to know you, discussing the flow of your day and any moments you particularly want captured. On the wedding day we keep things natural and relaxed, staying attentive to the atmosphere while remaining unobtrusive. After the wedding we personally edit your gallery and can help you create keepsakes — from a beautifully bound album to framed prints or canvas artworks — so your memories are preserved and presented exactly as you wish. While wedding photography is our primary focus, we also offer portrait and engagement photography for couples who want pre-wedding images or family portraits. If you’re planning a wedding in Bonnyrigg, Edinburgh or the surrounding area and want a professional wedding day photographer who specialises in natural, creative storytelling, we’d love to hear about your plans.
