Anastasia Fasta photography

Anastasia Fasta is an Edinburgh-based wedding specialist who approaches every day as a story to be told. As a documentary photographer with a cinematic touch, Anastasia focuses on capturing genuine emotion and the small details that make each celebration uniquely yours. Her work is about creating nostalgic, "live it again" moments — images that transport you back to the feelings, the atmosphere and the quiet, in-between seconds of your wedding day. Why choose Anastasia? She brings a holistic approach to wedding photography: she values connection, calm presence and thoughtful preparation. Building a relationship with couples before the day is central to her process — a friendly pre-photoshoot chat or a relaxed meet-up helps her understand your values, your vibe and what matters most. That connection allows her to photograph you naturally, so portraits feel candid and celebrations feel honest rather than posed. What makes her approach special is the blend of documentary storytelling and cinematic composition. Anastasia moves through your day with sensitivity, prioritising emotional truth over manufactured moments. She looks for light, movement and authenticity — from tears at the vows to laughter on the dance floor — and translates those moments into evocative imagery that reads like a story. Her emphasis on atmosphere and emotion means couples receive not just photographs, but cinematic memories they can return to again and again. How she works: she listens first. Planning includes conversations about style, locations (from Edinburgh’s streets to Scotland’s wild landscapes), and practical details like timing and comfort. On the day she creates a calm atmosphere, guiding gently when needed and otherwise staying present to capture real moments as they unfold. Anastasia also offers engagement and couples sessions that build rapport and provide relaxed portraits ahead of the big day — a helpful step for couples who want to feel at ease in front of the camera. While weddings are her core speciality, Anastasia can also include video highlights to complement your photos and craft a fuller record of your day. She’s available across Edinburgh, throughout Scotland and for destination elopements in the UK. If you want a wedding photographer who will become a thoughtful part of your day — someone who documents your story with warmth, artistry and intention — Anastasia invites you to get in touch and begin planning your cinematic, authentic wedding gallery.
