Hi, I'm Rhea McKenzie 👋
Fun
Friendly
Adventurous
I'm your extra wedding guest with a fancy camera, ready to join in the good times, the giggles and the adventures.
That’s “hello, how are you?” in my native Doric – I’m North-East born and bred. I’m a sucker for the wild, rugged beauty of Scotland and rural wedding photography puts me in my element. But I like to think of myself as much more than another Scottish wedding photographer. I’m your bonus bridesmaid, your extra pair of hands, your biggest cheerleader, and your eagle eye for detail – all wrapped up in a cute waistcoat and ear-to-ear grin.

She is a joy to work with, so down to earth & professional from start to finish.

When Rhea said she was available to capture our wedding day we were absolutely delighted. Rhea really listened to what we wanted from the day & we couldn't be happier with the wonderful memories she captured for us to cherish forever.

Rhea is professional, considerate and makes you feel so at ease throughout the whole day.

Rhea was an absolute joy to have capture our wedding day. Rhea worked so well with our other suppliers too and because of this, things just seemed to run so smoothly. Our photos are so beautiful and receiving them brought back so many memories that we will now be able to treasure forever. Rhea's photos are natural and were exactly what we were looking for. We cannot recommend Rhea enough! Being in Rhea's company creates an energy that is so infectious and brings a smile to everyone's face. Our wedding guests also commented on how great Rhea was. Our day wouldn't have been the same without her.

Rhea is an amazing photographer.

After meeting her at a wedding fair, we knew she was the right choice for us. She and Jony (second shooter) made us feel so relaxed and we had a great time getting our photos taken on our big day. She even captured the most beautiful photos with out cockapoo who was our ring bearer. Nothing is too much hassle and she gives great advice/help/recommendations regarding any aspects of wedding planning. We also recently recieved our wedding album which is stunning! We would definitely recommend Rhea to anyone planning a wedding and looking for a wonderful, friendly, funny and lovely photographer!

we chose Rhea for our wedding photographer after seeing how approachable and friendly she was at an other wedding.

I highly recommend Rhea, we chose Rhea for our wedding photographer after seeing how approachable and friendly she was at an other wedding. Not only did she capture amazing moments with her work that we can treasure forever but on the day she does really become that 3rd bridesmaids and help in that morning prep and made sure we were all running on time. Communication before and after the wedding and getting photos back you us were all within the times she gave us on booking!

We couldn’t recommend Rhea any more to capture memories we will look back on forever!

Rhea was one of the first suppliers we booked for our wedding having seen her in action at a few friends weddings and knowing her style would be perfect for our own wedding, we were not disappointed!! Her communication on the run up to the wedding was brilliant and on the day she was just like another guest making sure we had loads of fun! Our photos are amazing and definitely down to Rhea and her second shooter Jony making us feel so relaxed! We couldn’t recommend Rhea any more to capture memories we will look back on forever! Thank you!!

We knew she was the photographer for us

When we first spoke to Rhea on a zoom call we knew she was the photographer for us, my husband does not like getting his photo taken and she along with Jony as her second put him at ease, this is evident in not just the candid photos but the more posed ones also. We had so many compliments through out the day and after about how brilliant our photographers were, they really did feel like they were just part of our bridal party and were so much fun! We love all of our photos and would recommend Rhea to anyone looking for a wedding photographer

I’d read that Rhea is like an extra bridesmaid, that is more than true.

I’m not even sure how to word how happy we are with not just the photos we have from the day but for how Rhea was on the day. I had dreaded pictures and feeling awkward, it didn’t even cross my mind on the day to feel like that - everything was made to be so easy and relaxed. I’ve had numerous wedding guests comment on how amazing you were - they were all delighted it wasn’t like weddings they’d been to before where they pose for numerous stuffy pictures - all the pictures are candid, vibrant and fun. I’d read that Rhea is like an extra bridesmaid, that is more than true. You fixed my dress, sorted bridesmaid dresses, kept me fed, glass in hand and were described as a ninja on more than one occasion where you’d pop in take a picture and disappear without anyone noticing, and these are our favourite pictures! We also have pictures of all of the babies, children and dogs who were around on the day - it captured them all beautifully and I can’t wait to share these with their parents for their own special keep sake from the day. Thank you so much for capturing our day 💞

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

I couldn't pick just one, every wedding is different. It's the couple who really make it for me. Those who are laid back, up for a laugh and an adventure, make for the most memorable ones.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Adventurous, rustic, relaxed, romantic, personal

What about your business are you most proud of?

That couples don't just choose me for my photos but because of my personality.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Always allow for at least two hours between your ceremony ending and your call to dinner - the day will fly by!

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

The bride wrote a poem for each guest and used the envelope, with their name on it as their place setting for dinner.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

When an enquiry comes in, I will reply, usually within 24 hours, to advise of my availability, give a link to my package option on my website and offer a link to book in for a video call at a day and time that suits. On the call we will chat through all your plans and I will tell you about me. If you would like to go ahead I email over a booking form, contract and invoice for the booking fee. We will keep in touch during the planning stages and would chat again around one month before the wedding, this is also when the final balance is due, to go through all the timings for the day and any group shots.

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

A handful, I usually recommend up to 10 combinations, of family groups. It is not often everyone is together and looking so smart.

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

A double dad reveal - two brides did a first look to each other ahead of their ceremony and then they revealed their final look to each of their dad's. Not a dry eye in sight!

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Wellies, an umbrella and a "let's do this" attitude!

Describe how you got into photography.

After graduating in 2008, I went on to work in Marketing for five years in oil and gas. During that time I met a photographer at a wedding I was a guest at and started helping them out. Photography was a new hobby for me at the time. In 2014 I went to work for them full time and in 2017 I went self employed and have never looked back.
