I’ve spent nearly two decades telling the stories behind big, bold challenger brands. Now it’s time for me to help you tell your story.

how can i help you?

how can i help you?

I’m here to help passionate people, businesses and brands share their stories through bold and contemporary imagery.

brand & personal imagery

I work with individuals and brands to showcase them at their best, and most authentic. Everyone from actors to founders and big brands.

brand films & reels

I work with brands to tell the stories behind the logos. The who, the what and the why you get out of bed in the morning.

socials & short-form

Creating story-led video content to keep your channels and websites buzzing with activity and engagement.

one shoot, many futures

Every shoot can do more than one job. Add the Story Bank to any project and walk away with a library of content to keep building from.

headshots & portraits

From actors who need a fresh casting shot to professionals who just want a LinkedIn photo that doesn’t look like a hostage situation - a portrait that’s honestly, properly you.

faqs

What types of photography do you offer?

Contemporary headshots, portraits, and personal branding work. I also shoot street and environmental portraits for people who want imagery that actually looks like them, not a stiff version of them. I work with everyone from actors to business founders and brands.

What types of video do you produce?

Brand films, founder stories, and content for small businesses and huge brands. I handle it end to end, from the first conversation through filming, editing, and delivery.

What's your background?

Nearly twenty years across corporate communications, brand storytelling, and internal engagement, including work with large challenger brands. I understand stakeholders, budgets, and how a business actually thinks, so you get judgement as well as a camera.

Do I have to book a one-off project, or do you offer retainers?

Both. One-off projects are welcome, but a lot of clients move onto a retainer once they see the value of consistent content. Retainers keep your library fresh and your costs predictable.

What makes you different?

I help you tell your story. That's it. No hype, no buzzwords, just strategic thinking and storytelling depth built over two decades.

Where are you based?

I'm based in Glasgow, and you'll typically find me based at The Social Hub, right in the centre of town. But I've worked internationally for all my career - so as long as I can get there, you can have me on location whereever you need me to be.

What does a photo or video shoot cost?

It depends on what you need, but I'll always be straight with you about budget. Most of my photography services are fixed-cost, as they are more predictable in output than video productions. Check the relevant pages and you'll find details of my rates for my packages.
