This experience captured me enjoying the magic of Scotland in such a beautiful way!!! If your partner/friends take terrible photos of you or you’re solo this is the best experience! Vasileios was a truly gifted photographer and he took to places I didn’t know about and would have never seen so it was like a mini tour of Scotland as welll and I have iconic photos as well!! Best money spent!!!

Don't book on a holiday, our photographer never showed! We booked for 12/25/25 at 10am and waited until 10:15am at the meet spot. Sent 4 messages through viator to the photographer with no response. They sent a message in WhatsApp asking for more info for our session after the fact. I would not recommend booking for a holiday. You might book and pay, but in our experience we had no photoshoot. Still haven't gotten a refund from viator yet, they asked us to request a refund from the photographer. In my opinion, I booked with viator so they should put up the $ to refund us immediately if the experience didn't happen.

This was so much fun! We actually decided to have our son take his graduation photos in Edinburgh, and are so happy we did! Our photographer was great!

We had a perfectly beautiful, sunny, cloudless morning and were excited to have such fortunate weather for our photos. When we received the photos, they were so edited and overexposed looking, it looked terrible. We reached out to ask if we could just have the original, unedited photos and were rudely dismissed. Do not book this experience.

This was a great experience. We had the opportunity to do several poses in unexpected areas with views in the background that really let you know you were in Edinburgh. Our photographer knew all the right places, had the timing down to an art to capture photos with no other people and showed us the photos along the way to ensure our happiness with them.
Only one note for the Viator app (not the photographer) is that the meeting point location was hard to confirm and we ended up at the wrong place. Eventually we got together and had a wonderful time thanks to Vaselio. I would encourage you to confirm the meeting point at least a day in advance to avoid the stress in the moment we had.

My siblings and I brought our 77 year old mother on her bucket list vacation to Scotland and decided (after we arrived) that we needed to capture this precious time with her with professional photos. What a blessing it was to have Vasileios as our photographer! He made the experience stress free and absolutely enjoyable. Vasileios was very kind, positive, and incredibly talented. He knew which locations would best suit our mother’s needs as she has some mobility challenges following a recent hip replacement surgery. The locations he chose were beautiful and while walking from one location to the next, Vasileios shared interesting history about each area. The time spent with him was definitely a highlight of our trip. We highly recommend Vasileios and will each be requesting him for our future vacations in Edinburgh.

My photographer didn’t show up to the scheduled time. Then messaged me asking to reschedule for a later day. Very unreliable service. I would highly recommend finding a local photographer instead.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
This is a disappointing review! yes we had to rearrange the tour to later in the day because the photographer had an emergency visit to hospital for a family member.
We did deliver the tour in full later in the day.
We did apologise to the customer but it seems harsh to give a 1 star review for such an unfortunate situation.
I recommend you read all other positive reviews for a true reflection of our tour.

We had a shoot booked for our hand fasting ceremony. We were on our honeymoon and looking to renew our vows as a tribute to our one year anniversary.
Unfortunately our photoshoot was canceled last minute. We had a time set for 8am and our photographer canceled at 2am. Family emergency. Which I can totally understand. Sadly, we were leaving the next morning. The photographer and the company offered other times but we only had a few hours left in Edinburgh and they were already booked up. We decided we would move out ceremony to Glencoe. Hopefully we can find a photographer there. I completely understand emergencies and have no hard feelings. It was just really disappointing. The company made it easy to get a refund, so there’s that.

Absolutely amazing experience. Our photographer had all of the locations planned out in advance. She showed us secret gems in Edinburgh that we wouldn’t have found on our own. She was a great director and helped us feel super comfortable the whole time. In the hour we spent together, she took over 500 images so there’s a lot to choose from!

Do it! Our photographer Vasileios was phenomenal. He took us to all these great hidden spots, listened to what we wanted, and showed me shots throughout that were wonderful. We had fun and have a lot of pictures of our family together which is hard when you’re traveling.

Altin was the photographer assigned to us. Not only he was master of street photography but he helped us with great spots, poses and even shared some history about different places while walking between locations. He was very very patient to allow crowds to go away to get the right moment to click photos !

Our time with the photographer, Jetnor, was amazing. He made us feel so comfortable and seemed to capture some really great shots that will be so special for us! We can’t wait to see the finished pictures and will definitely be recommending to others.

I had a great shoot with Vasileios, he was totally committed and had selected beautiful photo spots. We were in some stunning places in the city that I could not have imagined better. Vasileios showed me the pictures on his camera again and again and they are exactly as I had imagined before. I am very much looking forward to the finished results . Really a great experience , thank you very much !
