Luxury Wedding Photographer of the Year 2023 - 2026

UK TOP 100 Wedding Photographer
Trusted by leading wedding planners and some of the UK and Europe's most prestigious heritage venues, Jill Cherry Porter is a luxury wedding photographer based in Scotland. With more than 15 years experience, she is known for atmospheric imagery that carries the feeling of a moment as much as the visual itself.
A degree in Film & Media with psychology and sociology, from Edinburgh's Queen Margaret University — and a natural passion for painting and sketching — nurtured a deep foundation in visual storytelling, narrative and atmosphere which has shaped everything that followed. Her work carries a filmmaker's instinct for the quiet moments, the telling details, the light in a room and the truest artistic ability to tell an honest story in a beautiful way.
Sought out by couples planning considered celebrations in private estates, historic churches and storied venues across the UK and Europe, Jill brings a calm, unobtrusive presence and a deeply intuitive eye. Her work has been featured in British Vogue and Vanity Fair, and she is a four-time consecutive recipient of Scotland's Luxury Wedding Photography Service of the Year award.
She is, quite simply, someone clients trust completely — subtle, intuitive and with a warmth that her couples note time and time again.

LANE
AS SEEN IN
01
place
Scotland — for its depth, history, and sense of quiet permanence. Italy — for its light, its rhythm, and the way time seems to soften. I’m most inspired by landscapes that invite stillness rather than spectacle.
02
PACE
Buying lamps. Watching Downton Abbey, Friends or Frasier reruns. And my homemade, organic chocolate brownies.
03
HOME
Warm light. Natural textures. Fresh flowers. The wood burner in winter, the golden summer sun setting across our garden. The environments we inhabit shape how we remember — home is my heart.
04
PRESENCE
My husband, Matt, and our two golden cocker spaniels. Balance and time spent in peaceful, beautiful places with them matters deeply to me.
05
details
The in-between moments. The glances, pauses and subtle exchanges between a couple as their day unfolds — fleeting and unplanned, yet, quietly, always where my eye is drawn.
Slow mornings. Long walks. Evenings round candlelit dinner tables that unfold with ease and laughter. The kind of pace that allows moments to be truly felt and remembered.
JILL CHERRY COUPLES
My clients are seekers of beauty .
— drawn to travel, thoughtful design, and wedding days that are felt as much as they are seen.
They value photography that honours atmosphere, connection, and the subtle in-between — images that will be cherished for generations, not for how they impress, but for how they feel.
For couples planning refined weddings at home or abroad.
