Traveling Solo in Edinburgh? You Deserve More Than Selfies.
You booked the trip.
You planned the outfits.
You dreamed about wandering through cobbled streets and historic closes.
And now you’re here - exploring Edinburgh on your own.
But when it comes to photos?
It’s either selfies… or awkwardly asking strangers to take one.
You deserve better than that.
If you’re travelling solo in Edinburgh, a professional solo photoshoot is the most beautiful way to turn your trip into something timeless.
Why Book a Solo Photoshoot in Edinburgh?
Solo travel is powerful.
Maybe you’re celebrating a milestone birthday.
Maybe it’s a healing trip.
Maybe it’s your first time travelling alone.
Or maybe you simply wanted to see Scotland on your own terms.
Whatever brought you to Edinburgh - this moment matters.
A solo photoshoot allows you to:
Be fully present in the experience
Capture authentic memories (not rushed snapshots)
Feel confident and seen
Leave with images that tell your story
And in a city like Edinburgh, the backdrop does half the magic for you.
The Most Beautiful Locations for Solo Portraits in Edinburgh
Edinburgh feels cinematic in every direction. Here are some of my favourite spots for solo portraits:
🌅 Calton Hill
With panoramic skyline views and soft golden light, Calton Hill is perfect for romantic, windswept portraits. Early mornings here are quiet and intimate.

Tucked away and full of charm, The Vennel Viewpoint offers one of the most iconic views of Edinburgh Castle - framed beautifully for storytelling images.
🌈 Victoria Street
Colorful buildings, curved streets, historic textures- Victoria Street adds personality and vibrancy to your gallery.
🌿 Hidden Old Town Closes
Stone staircases, soft light between buildings, moody Scottish atmosphere- ideal for timeless, artistic portraits.
Each session is tailored to your personality and travel vibe.
