Camera assistant, getting the hang of it.
Camera assistant, getting the hang of it. It’s really hard to get good staff these days, although I think I’m sorted now. He works hard, never answers back and is happy to be paid in eucalyptus leaves.
Sir Billy Connolly, a Knighthood at last.
Billy Connolly finally gets a Knighthood. Arise Sir Billy. I’ve photographed him a fair few times over the years…
Green Screen Fun
Green Screen filming today at Warren Media, which is always fun, but every time I do it I think of Delaware and Wayne’s World.
Posters in the background.
Posters or popup displays in the background can be a nuisance for PR photographers. We’ve all fallen foul of the over zealous PR who insists on having 47 popups in shot because their clients wants them in shot.
Beer & Kilts, always fun.
Kilts & Beer. A recent job for Tennents which is always going to be interesting. ;)
Charity walk, B&Q do it themselves…
Charity walk by B&Q staff, always rewarding photographing people doing charity walks. These B&Q staff members were walking the West Highland Way in 36 hours.
PR Photographer “what’s for dinner?”
PR Photographer? You can’t take this job too seriously. It’s all about interacting with people and getting the best from them. If that means you have to act the fool now and again, then so be it. ;)
Fun pics at Warren Media.
Fun pics for the National Trust for Scotland, at Holmwood House. Great fun, and very much the type of job I did regularly for the Evening Times back in my staff days there.
Easter Bunny, fun and chocolate too…
Easter Bunny, it only seems like last week. I spent the Easter weekend driving all over Scotland photographing kids doing National Trust for Scotland Easter Trails, in conjunction with Cadbury’s chocolate bunnies.
Bath time for Bria.
Bath time for Bria. Bath time. It’s far from a mundane job at Warren Media, here’s one of our favourite jobs from the last few months. Meet Bria, a French Mastiff who loves bubble baths so much she climbs in when her owner gets in the tub. It was, shall we say, interesting.. ;) Nice … Read more
Photography in the mountains.
It’s been a while since this gear and boots have been out of the cupboard, sadly. However, when a client wants me to do product and lifestyle pics at the top of a mountain, well, you gotta do what you gotta do…

Easter at Warren Media
It’s Easter… That can only mean one thing, I’m back on the Chocolate bunny trail with one of my clients, National Trust for Scotland.

The Battle of Arras Centenary Commemorations.
It was an honour to cover the Battle of Arras commemorations over the weekend for the Scottish Government.
How the cone gets there, the true story…
It’s long been a mystery how the traffic cone appears on the Duke of Wellington’s head, and if you’re lucky, his horse.
SSL Secure Green Padlock?
SSL 12 hours to get a green padlock? SSL Secure. 12 hours slaving away on my computer to get a green padlock? I’d have been quicker going to B&Q. ;) It was an S S ‘ell of a time getting it all sorted out but well worth it. Everybody likes to be secure don’t they? … Read more
Strictly Come Dancing at the Airport
Strictly Come Dancing at Edinburgh, then Glasgow Airport with my client and the Scottish Ballroom Dance champions.
Lost Glasgow, Paddy’s Market
Lost Glasgow I was out on a job for a client the other day at the Briggait, a Glasgow institution. Part of the job was at Glasgow Green, so as I wandered over I stopped and did a double take at Paddy’s Market. I dropped a frame through the railings, and it’s a bit … Read more
Welcome to the new Warren Media website
