Karen was amazing and we felt so relaxed during our Iris photography session! The results were so cool and really give a view you'd never be able to see normally.
She's also an absolute champion locally and has donated raffle prizes to local causes as well as frequent giveaways on her Facebook.
Would not hesitate to recommend.

Thank you so much! x
We were very apprehensive about booking a shoot for a 4month old, 4 year old and 7 year old. This was the first time any of the children had had their pictures taken professionally. Karen was great with all the children and had them laughing and smiling in no time. It shows in the photos. Would highly recommend Karen and will use her services in the future without a doubt!

Thank you so much! Lovely to meet you all x
Where do we even begin?! Karen is absolutely outstanding! 📸💖
From start to finish, she was everything we could have wished for and more — truly one of the best! All of our guests commented on how lovely, friendly, and fun she was throughout the day, and we honestly could not have chosen anyone better to capture our wedding.
The photos we’ve already seen are just remarkable — every single one is stunning. For someone who normally hates getting her photo taken, I can honestly say I love every photo I’ve seen so far… and that’s all down to Karen! She made us feel completely at ease, captured every special moment perfectly, and half the time you wouldn’t even know she was there (until you see the magic she’s created!).
Karen, you are an amazing and incredibly talented photographer, and we would recommend you to absolutely everyone! ❤️
Thank you for being part of our day we are so grateful you were our photographer xx

Awwww Leanne you have gave me a wee tear in my eye with this review. Thank you ❤️
Karen shot our wedding and she was nothing short of fantastic. As someone who feels so awkward and uncomfortable getting their photos done Karen made us feel so at ease. She brought an amazing vibe to the day and we were never short of laughs. Karen was so chatty and kind and I can’t thank her enough for making it such an incredible experience. Her work is absolutely beautiful and exactly what we envisioned. I can’t recommend her enough!

Awwww thank you much! Had a great day xxx
My mum decided she wanted an iris photo with her me & my sister for Christmas.
We absolutely love the finished edit & can’t wait for the wall art to arrive.
Something really unique & different to keep forever.
Karen is so welcoming & down to earth. We all felt super comfortable. Everything went super smoothly. I can’t fault the process one bit.
I highly recommend Karen at Iris Photography Scotland.

Thank you so much! Really appreciate this and it was lovely to meet you!
Having used Karen before for family photos, it was always going to be her that I wanted to do my wedding photos. The main reason was that being someone who doesn’t much like photos of myself, Karen would put me at ease and make me feel comfortable. She definitely did that. All guests throughout the day commented on how patient and down to earth Karen was. We have just received our gallery and have laughed and cried, replaying our day through her photos. The main thing for me is seeing how naturally happy everybody is in these photos. It truly was a day full of love and laughter and Karen has captured that perfectly. I can’t wait to display her work in our home. She has gone above and beyond with her help and lovely little touches. Thank you, Karen ❤️

Thank you so much, it was my pleasure and a honour to be asked ❤️
We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Karen for our wedding and Iris photos. From the moment we met her she made us feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera.
We have just got our online gallery and we are over the moon with the photos. She captured every special moment of the wedding so naturally, from the emotional moments to the laughter on the dance floor.
Karen’s not just a photographer, it’s all the other little things too. From helping me with my dress, Jordan with his kilt and to making the kids laugh for the photos.
We were laughing non stop with Karen, she’s just amazing.
We feel so lucky to have had such an amazing, talented photographer and can’t recommend Karen enough🤍

Karen was 10/10 on our wedding day not only did she capture the most beautiful pictures of my small wedding she agreed to be one of my witness as well, she also brought a bottle of champagne to create amazing pictures, she made us feel very comfortable considering it was a wedding party of 4 including herself, if ur looking for quality pictures, a laugh and someone that will go the extra mile she’s ur lady.

Thank you so much Annie, had a great day with you and so happy you love your photos xx
I had booked the Iris photography session for my mums birthday, all I can say is the experience was 10/10 and final product was absolutely fantastic! From start to finish the session was great, well executed and Karen was and couldn’t have been anymore welcoming and friendly. I would 100% recommend this service to anyone that was looking into it and would definitely recommend you go to Karen Simpson Photography!

Thank you so much for this great review, I really appreciate it xx
I can’t begin to put into words how amazing Karen is at her job. From when we booked she answered my million questions. She listened to our ideas and visions of pictures. On the day she helped me stay calm she helped me with my dress problems and with my 11 month old, Karen’s not just a photographer it’s all the little things she does as well.she kept the energy flowing she took us to our childhood park to capture our couples shoot just us and it was the most fun I had the full day I felt so relaxed and nothing felt staged with her. We have just received our online gallery and it’s amazing she’s captured amazing images and managed to get so many of my little girl smiling. I cannot recommend Karen enough and I can’t wait to use her again in the future with Freya.

Awww what a great review to wake up to! Thank you so much!! It was my pleasure and I had a brilliant day with you all ❤️
We were given an Iris photograph voucher for a wedding gift. It’s a unique gift and it was an easy process. Contacted Karen and booked on line. Got a day and time that suited and went along. Karen explained the process and the picture was taken. She had a great selection of examples and we took our time to choose the one we wanted. Within a few days we had our photograph and could choose various print formats. Really good and easy process, recommend this as a unique gift experience.

So sorry I am just seeing this review. Thank you so much for taking the time to write and it was my pleasure.
Karen has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember – she was even my childminder growing up – so it meant the world to me that she was the one to capture our wedding at Dalmeny Park House Hotel on 22nd July.
From start to finish, she was everything we could have hoped for: calming, professional, and so full of laughter throughout the whole day. Nothing ever felt staged, and she caught every little smile and laugh without us even realising she was there. The photos are absolutely stunning and bring back all the emotion of the day so perfectly – memories we’ll treasure forever.
Beyond the beautiful images, Karen has such a gift for making people feel comfortable. She put us completely at ease, kept things relaxed, and somehow managed to organise everyone all while making it all look effortless.
We feel so lucky that someone who has been such an important part of my life was there to document the happiest day of it – and I couldn’t recommend Karen highly enough to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

Awwww Gemma, you have actually made me cry reading this, thank you so much. It was honestly such an honour to be chosen to photograph your day and what a beautiful woman (inside and out) you have turned into. I had tears in my eyes many times throughout the day proud of what that wee girl has developed into and to see you truly in love with Lewis and what a fabulous couple you are xxx
