Still life and commercial photographer based in Ayrshire, Scotland. 

My work is specialised creating a high standard of photography and conceptual art, still life imagery for commercial and editorial clients.

I have a fully equipped studio and editing suite in Girvan, Ayrshire, 50 miles south of Glasgow.
This not only enables a wide range of creative opportunities, it is also very easy for me to keep clients fully engaged with the ongoing creative process, where feedback and input on the progress of the work is always welcome, and only moments away.

I provide a service which provides the highest possible standard of 
photography at affordable prices, enabling my clients an 
opportunity to best represent their products, whether through 
more basic lighting, which is obviously less time consuming; 
to more advanced creative lighting set-ups.

A bit about my experience and photographic journey :

I always try to draw upon skill and experience from a varied background in visual arts. 
Initially studying at art college in Kent in the 1990's, before spending a few years working as a photographic assistant in London, working on a myriad of jobs in advertising and editorial commissions, spending years in a commercial advertising environment.
I later went on to have my own studio in London, creating a wide variety of work, before returning to Scotland in 2012.
From there, I returned to higher education, to undertake a degree in Digital Art at the University of the West of Scotland, to reinvigorate my digital application skills, and challenge myself academically.
I graduated with a first class degree, before completing a Masters degree in Creative Media Practice, graduating with a Distinction in 2018.
After this I returned to professional photography, creating images for advertising and editorial, working in magazines, the press, and for commercial clients.
My journey through these fields has given him a unique perspective from which to form original concepts for his highly creative images, producing them at highly professional standard.
