Kathleen MacInnes

in ,

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.

Dunt

in ,

I’ve known Samson, aka Dunt, for many years - he plays drums for Horse whom I collaborate with frequently. He’s also a brilliant producer in his own right, however, and last summer we took some promo images for him at Dry Docks in Govan. It was a very simple affair, just the two of us and a camera, have a look:

Cloud House

in ,

Cloud House are a Glasgow-based alternative/indie band and I’ve worked with them on a couple of promotional shoots in recent years. I’ve also had the pleasure of seeing them live recently at King Tut’s. It was my first live gig since the pandemic (theirs too!) and these gentlemen were pretty awesome. Here are select images from my sessions with them:

Roxana Halls

in

I met London-based artist Roxana Halls earlier this year when she travelled up to Scotland to see her portrait of Horse Mcdonald, acquired last year by the Scottish National Portrait Gallery, about to go on public display for the first time. I was there to document the day and the moment I saw Roxana, I thought she’d be a fantastic person to photograph. The opportunity came along when I was in London a few weeks ago and despite rather hectic schedules, we managed to carve out a bit of time for me to visit Roxana’s studio and take some photos. There wasn’t much time, I was probably there about 20 minutes, but Roxana was a great sport and I’m pleased with how this sitting turned out. Have a look:
