About me

Hi, I'm Jack! I'm a Scottish Photographer, passionate about capturing unique images with my own signature style! I began my venture into photography in 2014 when I was in awe of my Dad's old DSLR. By August of that year, I was trusted to photograph my Dad's Wedding! Although it was really in 2018, when I bought my own first proper camera, that I started to really take photography seriously.

Originally I had started to get into photography and video for my own musical aspirations. I studied Music Performance at The Academy Of Music And Sound in Glasgow and played guitar, bass and sang. I still play in bands today! By the end of my HND in July 2020 I realised that I actually really wanted to pursue photography for a living instead of music.

For this reason, I began to cut my teeth as a Gig Photographer, working in difficult lighting scenarios and with a very limited amount of time to get the shot. Many of my friends are musicians and offered to let me shoot their gigs for experience. They quickly became paid gigs, especially as I upgraded my camera for something a little more professional. Fast forward a couple of years and here we are!

I've had my fair share of experience in the music industry, having experience or knowledge in the most of the runnings of the industry. Some of my more notable clients include; DF Concerts & Events, The SEC, Nordoff Robbins and Hamilton-Hunter Group. My photos have been published in publications such as Discovery Music, Bring The Noise UK, The Guardian, and The BBC. Some of the most notable acts I've photographed include; YungBlud, Biffy Clyro, Architects, My Chemical Romance, Neck Deep, Kings Of Leon, Stereophonics, Noel Gallagher, Inhaler and Culture Club.

My photography can be defined by my use of strong, glowy highlights, filmic textures and my particular search to enhance the realism in my photos. I also love more experimental textures in my photos and often experiment with slow shutters and intentional motion blur. I find taking photos of people, especially my musical friends, to be the most enjoyable form of photography. Inanimate objects just don't quite do it for me, especially since I've shot Yungblud (who is quite literally the opposite of an inanimate object!).

So, that's enough about me, let's hear about you! Get in touch with me below and let's chat about how I can help you achieve your aspirations!
