So much has happened since I started this photo project around young people and their thoughts of living with Covid. I am now going to push on and finish this over the next few months with a plan to bring out a book later in the year.

So if you have a young person who would like to be involved please get in touch.
It involves an outdoor portrait session and a questionnaire on their thoughts on the past couple of years.
Open to 8-18 year olds.

When I started this project over a year ago I didn’t expect we would still be living with Covid.
Young people have lived through a strange period in their lives. They have proved how resilient young people are.
The fact that this is still going on has changed things for the project and I am now expanding the ages of those taking part to bring in the stories of all 8-18 year olds.
Call it chapter 2.

Hard to believe it’s been 6 years since I finished with The Kiltwalk.

Today marks a significant day for myself as I close the Kiltwalkpics website. This site is full of such fantastic memories of people and places which have became a big part of my life.

I was lucky enough to be involved from the start and saw the kiltwalk grow from a little idea to the huge charity event it became. I have been lucky enough to travel with it to Kilimanjaro and New York.
I have witnessed a lot of wonderful moments involving all the endeavours of the walkers. There has been lots of laughter and tears but most of all a feeling of how lucky I am to do this as a job. The KIltwalk will probably remain one of the best jobs I will be fortunate enough to do but it was much more than just a job to me. I took pride every time I lifted the camera at the events because I knew I was doing my little bit to record moments in people lives that they will never forget.

Thanks to you all

Thanks to Carey for giving me the opportunity back in 2011

Thanks to the trustees and staff for their help throughout

Thanks to all my assistants who worked their asses off for me

Thanks to all involved for providing the moments for me to capture

Thanks for being part of my story

It's been a blast!

Pleased to be able to offer help to two young budding photographers this year. Over the next 12 months I will help James and Sarah with advice, training and work experience as they move towards starting their own photography business. Giving a leg up to the next generation is a good thing.
