I was at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh to photograph one of the first guided tours of the newly renovated Palm Houses.

The tour included s

This shoot really helped me get into the Christmas spirit! I was at the Christmas Open House at Sculpture House in Paisley.

The project, called On the Table , was designed to help the Armed Forces community explore creativity in a supportive environment. Participants included veterans, serving personnel and partners or carers. Together they crafted all the accoutrements of a t

Delighted to have made this video promoting an event for Worldwide Cancer Research held at The Edinburgh Grand.

It was inspiring to hear more about how they help fund projects into prevention, diag
