I had the real pleasure of photographing stunning holiday property Marine Lodge, based in sunny North Berwick, just a stones thrown from the beach. Such a gorgeous place to stay, beautifully refurbished by owners Andrew and Jo, they’ve done such a fabulous job of making the apartment a warm and welcoming place. I had a...

Oh my…..
Gosh, sometimes my job is soooo hard. Try photographing these delicious cakes for example, whilst not accidently drooling on them. I’m not kidding, my mouth was watering for the whole shoot! I was in gorgeous cafe Mimi’s Bakehouse at The Shore in Leith, to photograph their beautiful scrumptious cakes and take some interior shots for...
Happy Christmas!
It’s Christmas day, and hopefully you’re all having a grand day with your friends and family! Happy Christmas everyone! As there’s no snow this year, I have no pretty snow pictures to share with you on this festive day – so I thought I’d share some pictures from a recent shoot with Father Christmas and...
Celebrate Life with The Botanics…
I’ve been shooting pictures this summer for The Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh, and this particular commission was to shoot some stock photography to promote the garden’s Celebrate Life programme. People can adopt trees, have a leaf on the Hope Tree engraved in the Gateway building, use the commemorative book, and leave a legacy, amongst other...
Home on the range…
I was at the gorgeous Cameron House Hotel on Loch Lomond to photograph their new ranger exploring the great outdoors with some wee cadets. Great fun, we wandered over beautiful scenery, looked for birds of prey, found some cool creepy crawlies (and they found me, the midges in particular!) and splashed around in big muddy...
Tide & Time…
I’ve been a big fan of Tide & Time for a couple of years, they sell such gorgeous things for the home, so I was delighted to be asked to do some photography for them. They already have two stores in North Berwick and one in Peebles, but are soon launching another shop in Morningside,...
Time to hit the decks…
I was back onboard The Royal Yacht Britannia to photograph the events team, a cracking bunch of people who were a lot of fun to photograph. Britannia is a fantastic venue for events, either corporate or private – grand and impressive, and such a unique place to host a dinner or drinks reception. This was...
The Good Life…
I was recently commissioned to take some photography for a book on allotment gardening by The Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh. Growing your own fruit and veg is a real growing trend at the moment, and this book will be explaining lots of techniques to make the most of your own little patch of heaven, so...
Anchors away!
I’ve been having a lot of fun shooting for a new client, The Royal Yacht Britannia, docked down at Leith. Such lovely people and I’ve really enjoyed working with them. I was called along to cover the unveiling of a beautiful new statue called The Yottie – showing one of the former Royal Yachtsmen (nicknamed...
The Cameron House Hotel…
Last week I was through in the West of Scotland, doing a lifestyle shoot for The Cameron House Hotel on the banks of Loch Lomond. The hotel is a beautiful baronial mansion set in striking scenery and I was there to photograph various subjects for them throughout the day. We started with a shoot on...
Zipping through the trees for a great cause…
I may have made a terrible mistake…. I did a very fun shoot for Marie Curie Cancer Care, to promote a fundraising event at Go Ape, which takes place on May 29th… I climbed a few trees with my cameras, managed a rope swing and ended up having to go down via a small zip...
Celebrating Craigielaw’s Success…
I recently had the great pleasure of photographing the celebrations for the 10th anniversary of Craigielaw Golf Club, in Aberlady, East Lothian. It was a beautiful evening and the course looked amazing, with gorgeous views across the Firth of Forth. Everyone was on great form and I really enjoyed photographing the golfers coming off the...
Changeworks at Craiglockhart…
I had a great day today, photographing the ‘Make Waste History’ summit for Changeworks at the beautiful Craiglockhart campus of Napier University. Such a fun day – children from Edinburgh schools were competing in a Dragon’s Den style competition to win £250 for their school, coming up with fab plans to reduce the amount of...
Sunshine on a rainy day…
Yesterday I drove through horrible gales and torrential rain to Dumbarton, for a shoot for the Woodland Trust – they’ve acquired a beautiful piece of woodland after lots and lots of fund-raising, and we were doing some shots to celebrate. Phil and Tim were there from WTS for the shoot and as I arrived, the...
Beach Patrol…
It’s been a very hectic couple of weeks, and I have so much to blog! To begin with, here’s a few of my favourite pictures from the other day – I was in North Berwick to photograph the kids at the Wildlife Club, hosted by The Scottish Seabird Centre. The kids were doing all sorts...
Banquet at Platinum Point…
Saturday was spent recording a fabulous event for Savills in the penthouse at luxury development Platinum Point in Newhaven. Glenn Mcnab, from the wonderful Loch Fyne restaurant, cooked up a storm in the designer kitchen, and prepared an elaborate seafood platter in the designer kitchen, before making a delicious seafood chowder for everyone there…..

Raising a glass…
The other day I met the very amiable crew at Ian Macleod Distillers, where they produce some very fine whisky! I was there to photograph the team plus take some business shots for press of MD Leonard Russell. Here are a few of my favourite shots…. FacebookTwitter
Herding kittens…
I had a great time recently working for Changeworks, photographing some very lucky children who had won bikes through the ‘Hero at Home’ competition! The shoot at The Bike Station was a bit like herding kittens – imagine the scene….. lots of very excited children on wheels – pretty hard to keep them all in...
Scottish Womens Aid at The Parliament
It was a beautiful autumn morning last week when I photographed the fabulous women and supporters of Scottish Womens Aid. They were lobbying the Scottish Parliament to raise awareness of the impact that large funding cuts will have on the lives of women, children and young people who have experienced domestic abuse. Such an important...
SWA Conference…
Last week I was kept busy shooting the Scottish Women’s Aid annual conference, photographing some truly inspiring people. SWA is an organisation that tackles issues surrounding domestic abuse and violence against women. The conference this year focused on the justice system, how the law and courts clamp down on abusers and how to support women...
