photo / video
Whilst enjoying my many years of working as a musician and bagpipe instructor, I have simultaneously been working with my cameras. I would be delighted to hear from you if you have a project or shoot in mind. I particularly enjoy portrait photography shoots either out and about or in a place of creation, like an artist’s workshop for example. Naturally, as a musician I enjoy filming music videos too.
See some examples of work below and scroll a bit further for my current gear list.
Music video I produced for Glasgow-based band, Trip, “The Sweetheart Reels”
Graham Rorie was commissioned by Celtic Connections to compose a suite of music, titled - “The Orcadians of Hudson Bay” and he had me along to produce this short documentary film.
The Red Hot Chilli Pipers asked me to join them to produce four short films as part of their Scottish Tour, this is the first episode of four from that mini-series.
