It has been a real privilege to contribute to the great mixed climbs of Scotland and play a small role in what I believe will become a classic piece of mountaineering literature. Congratuoations to @hamishfrost, @wrygob and the @scottishmountaineeringpress

I recently wrote an article for the Scottish Mountaineering Press about capturing these images for the book and my wider experience in the mountains and journey into photography. Link in my Bio.

Looking forward to be next adventure.

One of my craziest film shoots from the winter season…

@ryan_balharry on Daddy Long Legs XIII 9

Although the day ended on an ‘epic’ which is a story for another time 😳

One of the most incredible moments of my life, last year on board Somerled we had just arrived at the Lofoten Islands and were greeted by a pod of Orca, playing, sleeping and feeding in the early morning light. Humbling to be so close to these animals. Video by Scott showing me how to use my own drone 🤌 #orca #killerwhale #lofoten #sailing

"It’s the sound of home.”

Tulia is a chance to visit Kenya and experience the culture in a genuine way, away from the crowds.

It brings together two parts of my life I’m deeply connected to - Kenya (my home) and the mountains.

Two worlds, brought together simply.

The trip includes time in local communities as well as the opportunity to climb equatorial 5,000m peaks.

If you’ve ever thought about visiting Africa or taking on a climb like this, it might be something worth considering.

Landing a drone whilst working on ropes can be challenging, proximity to the cliff and rope with minimal margin for error - especially if it’s windy. When it’s as still and beautiful as this tho it’s not the worst place to work! Shooting for @patagonia in the Lofoten Islands last year, filming and stills for a sailing expedition with @robbiephillips_ @alex_r_moore and Emma. With @the_kilted_sailor taking care of the sailing! #climbinglife #expeditionphotography #lofoten

The three-day trek up Mt. Kenya is challenging and awe-inspiring. Valleys carved by ancient glaciers and flowing rivers create breathtaking landscapes, and the highest peaks can feel almost out of reach.

But standing atop the summit, looking down at the path you’ve conquered, brings an unforgettable sense of achievement. It’s a journey that tests both body and spirit and rewards both.

“Took a little journey into the unknown, and I’ve come back changed, I can feel it in my bones.”

Captures from last winter - product campaigns, documentary film shooting. Days with wind that cut right to the bone and days with bluebird skies and crisp winter light. Almost entirely shot in the Scottish Highlands. When it’s good, it’s good.

Tulia is one of those once in a lifetime trips where you truly immerse yourself in a country’s culture while escaping into quiet, remote wilderness. It’s a place that invites you to slow down, connect with local traditions, and experience everyday life in an authentic way.

Beyond the cultural richness, Tulia offers vast, peaceful landscapes where silence and nature take over. It’s the perfect balance of reconnecting with yourself and experiencing a beautiful country. leaving you with memories that stay long after the journey ends.
