# Catriona Parmenter Photography
Catriona Parmenter is a wedding, elopement and family photographer based in Nethy Bridge, serving couples and families across the Cairngorms National Park and Scottish Highlands. With 18 years of living immersed in the region and a decade of professional experience, she offers something rarely found: a photographer who is genuinely rooted in the landscape she captures.
Her approach prioritises calm, connection and place. Rather than treating photography as a transactional photoshoot, Catriona positions herself as a trusted guide who understands the Cairngorms intimately—its light, its rhythms, its most beautiful hidden locations. She works with couples and families to create relaxed, unhurried experiences where genuine moments naturally emerge, resulting in photographs that authentically reflect how days truly felt rather than how they appeared staged.
What sets her apart is the integration of deep local knowledge with artistic sensitivity. Clients consistently highlight her reassuring presence and ability to make them feel at ease, whether planning intimate elopements amongst heather-covered mountains or capturing family stories within ancient Caledonian pine forests. Her work is characterised by natural tones, subtle Highland light and an attention to the quiet, connecting moments between people and landscape.
Catriona's philosophy recognises that being photographed in such spectacular terrain is itself an experience worth savouring—one she thoughtfully guides from initial consultation through to final images, ensuring clients feel supported, prepared and free to genuinely enjoy their time.
