Evening

Kathleen MacInnes

December 21, 2021 in Music, Portrait

I’ve known Kathleen MacInnes, a brilliant Gaelic singer, for quite a while and have photographed her live on several occasions (mainly for Ceol’s Craic events) and it was a joy to be asked to do a proper session with her. We spent a lovely summer evening in Govan’s Dry Docks earlier this year and I’m including some of the final images below.

Nicole Caldwell

October 06, 2017 in Blog, Music, Editorial

You may have seen Nicole Caldwell belting out "Purple Rain" on the X-Factor recently. I've been a fan of her voice ever since I've heard her perform with Soul Nation Choir a few years ago. Being able to finally work with Nicole on her very first photoshoot as a solo artist was a great opportunity. And a lot of fun! The brief was "bohemian/hippie/natural" so off we went last month to Mugdock Country Park (one of my favourite places to shoot) with Caroline Stewart on makeup duties and spent an evening walking about, laughing and talking nonsense. Oh yes, and we took some photos too. Enjoy!

PS. Big thanks to David for all the help!
