Invest in your Memories
As you plan your special day, remember your photos will capture the love you share. Investing in them safeguards moments that tell your story, cherished forever. If you’re after photography that depicts a more timeless, contemporary style and infuses art with story-telling then I truly cannot wait to begin with you.
My Approach
A relaxed atmosphere that enriches our bond and the images we capture together. My intention is for your experience to be authentic, celebrating your love and spirit. Together, we'll craft emotion-filled photos that reflect you. My supportive approach nurtures our connection and draws inspiration from meaningful moments that are personal to you. I focus on a natural style that highlights genuine emotion, avoiding awkward poses. My passion lies in creating art that authentically represents you with a modern contemporary style.
My style evolves daily, using film-inspired tones to tell your story., I focus on a more editorial editing style. Blending positioned and candid shots all the while capturing authentic emotion. My cinematic aesthetic offers modern framing for timeless imagery with muted, natural colour tones. Building connections takes time; I focus on meaningful relationships. I dedicate time each year to mentoring and personal projects for growth. To engage fully with couples, I document only 10 weddings annually.
Kind words
‘‘These Images are amazing, thank you so much for making it such a joy, you were absolutely instrumental and none of our day would have been the same without you.’’
Annalise and Morgan - Murthly Estate
‘‘We are not sure where to start, we love our images, thank you for your energy and light , from the planning to your help on the day and your vision. We are forever grateful.’’

Travel is my passion! Based in Highland Perthshire, I journey throughout Scotland, the UK, and beyond. If you're planning a destination shoot, I'm all in! Please note that travel expenses are not included in our package pricing
-
I believe in celebrating natural beauty and the uniqueness of each individual. As such, I typically avoid using Photoshop to alter images. However, I do offer additional touch-ups on a limited number of photos per gallery on a request basis only, and I cannot guarantee that I will be able to fulfill all requests. Please note that extra charges apply
-
Depending on your chosen package and the time of year, the maximum lead time for receiving your finished gallery (as specified in all contracts) is 14 weeks for non-commercial projects. For an additional fee, we can provide an express edited gallery. Within a week of your wedding, we usually share a small selection of preview images on Instagram. If you're interested in receiving additional highlights and preview galleries, we can include those in your package for an extra charge. Please keep in mind that our editing process requires time; while we document a limited number of non-commercial projects each year, we devote three days a week to editing outside of our shooting schedule
-
All images for non-commercial use are copyrighted to Michele Silva. If you would like to share any of your images with other vendors, please note that they will need to contact us for permission to use the images, and fees may apply for vendors. We generally permit sharing of our images from social media, but we still prefer that vendors reach out to us beforehand. Our work and art are important to us, and we appreciate your understanding
-
Yes! As part of your gallery delivery I always include additional images, you have the ability to choose your digital collection package beyond your package details, you get to choose your desired high res downloads and depending on your digital package have access to additional free image downloads or get charged for high res downloads per image.
-
No, you can do this at the gallery delivery stage via our link delivery of your gallery. We offer a slideshow delivery of all images captured before your gallery delivery link goes live, which will help you decide if you would like to have more images than your inclusive package. Additionally, your gallery link will remain active, so you will always have access to print and download offers available, allowing you to build your print collection over the years.

Absolutely! Being an artist is a passion of mine. Crafting your story requires significant time and dedication. It took me years to reach a point where I truly appreciate every facet of what it means to be a photographer. It’s more than just capturing and delivering photographs; it’s about the experience I strive to offer alongside that. I’ve invested in tools and developed platforms designed to enhance the overall photography
Most weddings, from the booking stage to the actual event, take approximately 33 to 59 hours of work, and that’s before any editing is considered. The value of my skill and time is akin to any other business or job, determined by my administrative rates and photography fee per hour. While this explanation might sound less personal and a bit clinical, I place a great value on my art. I prefer not to shoot more than 12 weddings per year, as it’s essential for me to define the value of my time and the effort required to deliver a remarkable experience for couples who appreciate and desire a more artistic form of photography. This approach must be sustainable for me to work and live comfortably. Your chosen digital collection reflects the time involved in editing, which entails far more than simply applying a one-click bulk edit to my workflow.
Backing up, culling, and editing each selected image from your collection is a vital part of the process. The editing time for each wedding ranges from 32 to 68 hours, depending on the event length and initial package. Delivering galleries to my couples involves multiple stages, from pre-event preparation and the shoot day to administrative tasks and communication. I truly value my time spent outside of capturing or editing.
I maintain organised workflows and administrative documentation that support my couples, in addition to contracts and client systems that provide clarity and confidence in safeguarding your experience and photographs. This mutual respect and partnership begin right from the start.
Planning and maximising our time together demands experience and attentiveness, ensuring that I'm thoroughly prepared for your wedding, shoot, or event. This preparation fosters a connection ahead of time, allowing us to make the most of our experience and ultimately guaranteeing that your photographs genuinely reflect your unique day and love. Documenting your event is not just about capturing images—it's the art form I provide. The tools and cameras I use, alongside my time and expertise, are crucial. This stage of preparation is just as significant as the editing process and sets the foundation for what follows. I adhere to a standard approach for shooting weddings, utilising only the highest quality equipment, including film cameras.
How and why I introduce Digital add’ on to my initial packages -
My creative hourly rate encapsulates more than the minutes dedicated to delivering your gallery link. It embodies a skill in storytelling, interwoven with editing. In a world overly saturated with transitory digital images, the tangible nature of prints stands apart, transcending mere snapshots. It invites you to feel, to touch, and to relive memories every time you revisit your elegantly crafted album.
Your investment should serve as a constant reminder of love and life. This philosophy underpins my commitment to showcasing your story. Embracing prints isn't simply adhering to a trend; it reflects a sincere dedication to preservation. This choice might not resonate with everyone, and that’s absolutely alright. It’s about a deliberate selection that aligns with the depth and passion and intention into my art and the value I want it to hold for all my couples and clients.
What truly matters is the cherished experience, the moments you hold dear, and the exceptional quality that couples working alongside me not only seek but genuinely deserve. This is about crafting a narrative that goes beyond the surface—transforming fleeting memories into eternal treasures.
