Perthshire Wedding Photographer
with a Documentary and Editorial Style
Perthshire stretches from Blair Atholl in the north to the farmland around Perth itself, long nicknamed Big Tree Country for its old estates and ancient woodland. This page looks at the wider county, separate from the Perth city page and the Schiehallion page elsewhere on this site, which cover their own specific places in more detail.
I photograph weddings across the county’s castles and glens, a ceremony in a 220-seat ballroom, a reception under a garden pavilion built for hundreds, portraits beside one of Europe’s oldest trees. Below are the real venues worth knowing, plus the questions couples ask me most before booking a wedding here.
From Intimate Elopements to Big Weddings in Perthshire
Perthshire covers both ends of the scale well, from a 20-guest ceremony in a castle’s own rooms to a 300-guest reception under a garden pavilion.
I photograph:
– quiet, intentional elopements with just the two of you
– small weddings with close family and friends
– full wedding days with a larger guest count
– multi-day wedding celebrations, including welcome dinners and relaxed moments before or after the wedding
No matter the size or length of the celebration, my focus is always the same: real moments, strong atmosphere, and portraits that feel natural rather than posed. The scale may change, but the intention doesn’t.
Wedding Videographer in Perthshire: Photo and Hybrid Video Coverage
Alongside photography, I also offer wedding video coverage in Perthshire as part of a hybrid photo and video approach.
Video is treated as an extension of the photography, captured with the same sensitivity to light, timing, and atmosphere. The focus stays on real moments, movement, and sound, without staged scenes or intrusive production.
For weddings that benefit from an additional perspective, a dedicated videographer can also be included, always working in the same calm, unobtrusive way and fully aligned with how I photograph the day.
This approach works especially well for destination weddings, where intimacy, setting, and emotion matter more than spectacle.
The Wedding Venues in Perthshire
A seven-century castle ballroom at the foot of the Highlands, a family castle with its own garden pavilion, and Europe’s oldest tree for portraits.
Blair Castle, Blair Atholl
The home of the Atholl family for over seven centuries, with a Ballroom that seats up to 220 guests or scales down to an intimate 80, connecting through a hidden door to the Banvie Hall, a modern glass room looking over the gardens.
Fingask Castle, Rait
Home to the Threipland family for four hundred years, said to have hosted Bonnie Prince Charlie. The castle itself suits smaller weddings of around 70, while the front garden pavilion takes up to 300, with a bridal suite and seven self-catering cottages on site.
The Fortingall Yew
Not a wedding venue, but a genuine portrait location: in the grounds of Fortingall’s ancient church, a yew estimated at anywhere from 2,000 to 5,000 years old and often called the oldest living tree in Europe.
Your Perthshire Wedding Photographer
I’m Dejan, a Perthshire wedding photographer.
My focus is always the wedding itself, not performances for the camera. The photos are simply a reflection of the day: genuine, calm, and emotionally grounded.
I take my work seriously, but never myself too seriously. A relaxed atmosphere, clear communication, and quiet confidence make all the difference, especially for destination weddings.
From the moment we met Dejan, he made us feel completely at ease. He has a calm and kind presence, and captured every emotion of the day in a way that felt honest and natural. Nothing felt forced or over-posed, yet he was always in the right place at the right time. His work feels intimate and timeless, and we’ll treasure these photos for the rest of our lives.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between this page and the Perth page?
This page covers Perthshire as a whole county, mostly its castles and estates further from the city. The separate Perth page focuses on venues in and around Perth itself, like Scone Palace.
How many guests can Blair Castle’s Ballroom hold?
Up to 220 seated, or it can be arranged more intimately for around 80. The estate asks couples to enquire directly about which configuration suits their day.
Can Fingask Castle really handle 300 guests?
Only in the front garden pavilion, built for larger weddings. The castle’s own rooms suit smaller groups of around 70, with the pavilion as the option once numbers grow past that.
What’s the best time of year for a Perthshire wedding?
Late spring through early autumn for the gardens at their best, though both castles run weddings through the colder months with their indoor rooms and open fires.
Which airport should our guests fly into?
Edinburgh is the most practical option for most of Perthshire, with Glasgow a reasonable alternative depending on which part of the county you’re heading to.
