I’m an award-winning photographer, videographer, and author based in Edinburgh. I wrote 'Edinburgh – A New Perspective', a fine-art coffee table book that captures Scotland’s capital in sweeping panoramic images through the changing seasons. My work also greets millions of travelers each year at Edinburgh Airport, where seven large-scale panoramas have been proudly on display for more than two decades. With an expert eye for Scotland’s landscapes and a lifelong love of nature, I lead immersive tour experiences to some of the country’s most breathtaking locations. Known for my warm, personable approach—and for the legendary hampers I bring along—I ensure every journey and experience is both inspiring and memorable. In addition to my set itineraries, I create exclusive, tailor-made tours, often blending photography tuition with unique, once-in-a-lifetime moments. As the preferred nature and photography guide for the prestigious five-star Gleneagles Hotel, I design and deliver bespoke experiences for VIP guests. My clients have included Hollywood directors, renowned business leaders, and other high-profile visitors seeking the very best of the Scottish Highlands. Rest assured, you're in capable hands... I was recently interviewed on a podcast about nature and the outdoors— please head on over to listen to the episode on Spotify here, where you'll hear all about my story: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5e92bN22ivz2AWDnbZ8XI4?si=fdb384d07b5b4512

Overview of your Edinburgh tour

Discover the wild beauty of Lewis and Harris on this exclusive private tour through Scotland’s Outer Hebrides. On Lewis, stand among the 5,000-year-old Calanais Standing Stones, explore the Iron Age Dun Carloway Broch, and step inside traditional island life at Gearrannan and the Arnol Blackhouse. Feel the Atlantic power at the Butt of Lewis Lighthouse and gaze upon the dramatic Mangersta Sea Stacks at the end of our first day. On day 2 we visit the Isle of Harris Distillery for a refined tasting, before discovering the remote Eilean Glas Lighthouse. The landscape on Harris transforms into mountains and luminous beaches — Luskentyre, Seilebost, Sgarasta Mhòr and Horgabost — where turquoise water meets white sand. We explore the medieval St Clement’s Church at Rodel, before heading home. With private transport, flexible pacing and local insight, this journey offers an immersive, unhurried experience of history, landscape and island culture at the edge of Europe.
