Heidi Talbot - Grace Untold

PHOTOGRAPHY, ARTWORK & VIDEO FOR HEIDI TALBOT’S NEW ALBUM

Grace Untold is the new album from Irish singer-songwriter Heidi Talbot. I met Heidi on a shoot with Boo Hewerdine in February 2024, although I’d been wanting to photograph her for a long time. Heidi and I got along brilliantly, sharing our love of music and yoga, and I guess that shoot with Boo went well as I was asked to create visuals to promote Heidi’s new release, Grace Untold, an album inspired by and dedicated to Irish women, warriors and goddesses. I shot the album cover, filmed and produced the video EPK and designed the CD and Vinyl packaging. See all of that and more below:

PORTRAIT SESSION WITH INDY IN MUGDOCK PARK

I photographed Indy back in 2019 in a studio setting. When he reached out earlier this year with the idea to collaborate again, we decided to go in a different direction this time and shot outdoors, in the ever-faithful Mugdock Park. See a few of my favourite images from the day below:

DOCUMENTING GLASGOW’S MERCHANT CITY FESTIVAL 2024

The Merchant City Festival 2025 is just around the corner and I’ll be photographing it again this year so I thought now would be the perfect time to share some of last year’s images.

The 2024 outing took place from Friday 19 to Sunday 21 July in Glasgow’s Merchant City district. Over the weekend, around 35,000 people enjoyed free outdoor arts and circus performances, interactive theatre, family ceilidhs, puppet shows, and science activities. There were daily markets, international street food, and evening live music. It was all very colourful and a joy to photograph. See some of the 2024 images below:

Lifestyle Photography for Waterfront Private Hospital

Waterfront Private Hospital is a modern, consultant-led private healthcare facility located in Granton, Edinburgh, overlooking the Firth of Forth. Established in September 2023 by renowned plastic surgeons Dr. Awf and Dr. Omar Quaba, the hospital specializes in aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, dermatology, hand surgery, urology, and non-surgical cosmetic treatments.

I was approached by Holyrood PR last year to produce a series of lifestyle image for the hospital, showcasing their facilities as well as staff. The brief asked for warm, friendly, bright, professional. We shot over 2 days in Edinburgh and you can see a selection of these images below:
