Jayfrankofilms

Jayfrankofilms specialises in natural wedding photography and videography, documenting the day as it unfolds rather than relying on staged or heavily posed shots. Their work focuses on real interactions, quiet details, spontaneous emotion and the people who make each celebration feel personal.

Based in Edinburgh, the team has more than eight years of experience capturing weddings across the UK and internationally, including Italy, Montenegro, Spain and the United Arab Emirates. Photography-only, videography-only and combined packages are available.

Documentary-style wedding photography and films

Jayfrankofilms takes a relaxed, “fly on the wall” approach throughout the wedding day, allowing couples and guests to enjoy the celebration without feeling overly directed.

For couple portraits and group moments, gentle prompts and movement-based direction are used to keep images natural, comfortable and true to the couple. The result is a gallery and film collection that captures the mood, energy and emotion of the day.
