I'm nearing the end of my Edinburgh photos! It's been a chaotic couple of weeks and posting has taken a backseat.

I've set up a new website - still a work in progress, but it's a major improvement! Between family shoots, product work, and spec shoots, my free time has disappeared.

Currently Prepping for a wedding shoot this weekend, but I'll try to post more than I did last week!

These are the things they don't tell you when starting / running a solo business 😂. Wearing many hats is an understatement - it takes a lot of effort! 😂

Could’ve made a 10-minute pasta.

Made this instead — because apparently I enjoy stirring rice and rethinking life.

Also: risotto might be the only dish where “mushroom sludge” still looks photogenic.

I love photographing authentic food, actually edible and plated food, if you’re a business looking to elevate your food photos for menus or social posts get in touch, no glycerin or shaving foam will be used. If you’d present your food I can photograph it!

🤤 Rigatoni Carbonara 🧀🥚🥓
Done properly, it’s one of the easiest and most flavour-packed pasta dishes around. Agree?

📸 I love styled food photography especially when shooting in cafés or restaurants but home-cooked meals come with their own challenges…

Like:
• Finding plates that match the vibe of the dish 🍽️
• Realising you’ve used all your nice props to cook the actual meal 🙃
• Buying random one-off bits of crockery just to get “the shot” (I’ve got a cupboard of solo bowls and mugs at this point 😅)

This shoot is part of a personal food styling side project I’m quietly working on… more details coming soon 👀
If you’re curious or want to follow the journey, hit follow or drop a comment so I know who’s watching.

💬 Also: I’m currently open to working with a few bars, cafés, restaurants, or food producers who want new marketing imagery of their menu, drinks, or products.

📩 DM me or leave a comment if you’d like to chat I’m offering competitive rates and collaborative packages for independents.

Part 7: Dean Village Edinburgh, one of the prettiest little areas I think I’ve seen in any city! Do you agree?
Stunning architecture and a lovely river running right through. A wonderful escape from the busy main areas like the royal mile etc..
the buildings are what drew me here for sure.

Would you order this? Or better yet would you serve it?

Tiramisu in a mug: when I found the yellow Mug and the grey plate combo I knew I could do something with it!

Food that doesn’t just taste amazing, but sells itself with a single image.

Want your menu to do the same?
DM me let’s make your dishes irresistible online.

Part 6: the road trip took me in to the center of Edinburgh for a day so what better place to start than absolutely amazing to see and I have to say Edinburgh might well be up there in my favourite cities visited to date!
From the people to the architecture it’s well worth a visit and I will definitely be going back soon

Breaking up the travel and landscape photos a little with a little taste ( pun intended ) of some good work I’m doing currently.
I like shooting lifestyle, brand and still life as much as I do landscapes and street work and have always hated the thought of niching down to only doing one thing.
So here is a pasta dish made, plated and shot by me. Working on a project around this at the moment so it’s good practice even if it doesn’t become a used image.

All ingredients are from as is the Bowl I used.
