Edinburgh: Short Film Documentation Experience
Be the Star of Your Own Mini Movie in Edinburgh! I’m a local filmmaker and photographer, and I’ll turn your visit into a mini movie. Think of it as a relaxed walk through one of the most beautiful and mysterious cities in the world while I capture little moments of your trip on film. Moments that will not repeat. You’ll feel seen, safe, and inspired — like the city itself is a movie set and you’re the main character. I speak English and Spanish, and it’ll feel more like hanging out with a friend than a formal shoot. We’ll start by saying hello with a cuppa tea or something stronger.
Special launch offer: I’ve just listed this experience and am offering a lower price for a limited time, as a thank-you for being among my very first guests. If you’re curious and want something truly unique, now’s a great time to book.
✨ Whether you’re visiting alone, as a couple, or with friends, I’ll make sure your experience feels personal, cinematic, and unforgettable.
