Hi All
As a commercial freelance event photographer Edinburgh, I am often either outdoors as a newspaper sports photographer, Edinburgh, or indoors photographing conferences around Scotland, but there is one event every year which involves indoor photography and sport, its the Scottish Taekwondo Championships at the Ravenscraig Arena in Motherwell. A very enjoyable day and this year I was on duty, along with my colleague Jason Kimmings, for the second day for the under 18 age groups. As usual it was great fun. The one thing gets me every time that is the emotion involved during the sparring events and the capturing of pain, joy and disappointment make it a very interesting event, even if it's not really your sport. Anyway well done to all, photo attached and more on the website.
Now its back to some conference photography in Edinburgh and some outdoor photographer events in Eat Lothian and Fife, Scotland.
See you all soon.
Kind Regards
Colin

Hi All
A busy week, ending with a particularly frantic weekend, as an event photographer in Edinburgh, it's good to get some different events and for the third time in the last few years , I photographed the Scottish Taekwondo Championships at the Ravenscraig Arena, Motherwell. A great day was had by all, lots of action and emotion, some photos soon. I also had some newspaper photography with the Midlothian Adertiser, with some junior football and a great game between Penicuik and musselburgh, photo attached to the blog.
Last week, I also had a photography event in Edinburgh and I have some conference photography, Edinburgh with NHS Education for Scotland soon. As a commercial photographer in Wdinburgh, you are going to have your busy times and this is certainly one of mine at the moment. Coming up soon, some event photography, outside Edinburgh and a bungee jumping photographer event in Glasgow.
Speak to you all soon.
Kind Regards

Hi All
The weather is proving to be a bit of a wash out at the moment, with the likelihood that most of the football and rugby will cancelled for my newspaper photography Midlothian Advertiser shift. I will still have a couple of indoor jobs which was just as well. Someone said to me a few weeks ago under similar weather circumstances “thats an easy day for you” but this isn’t an office job. As a sports and event photographer in Edinburgh, you want to be taking photos. You need to be out there and you would do it even if you aren’t getting paid. So anyway here is a photo from the Dunbar United game last weekend, pretty controversial, with Dunbar getting a man sent off in the first 5 minutes, never mind there is always next year.
A busy week with some conference photography Edinburgh coming up and some event photography in Edinburgh and ending with some sports photography at Motherwell with the Scottish Taekwondo championships on sunday – cant wait and its indoors, so they can’t cancel it.
Anyway until next time.
Kind Regards

Hi everyone
A busy week and I finally completed my commission for Thurston Manor outside Dunbar. A photo is attached of one of the photos on display at the Caravan and Leisure Centre, taken at Traprain Law, near Haddington, East Lothian. This was a very enjoyable commission, thanks to Hilary Chadwick from Chadwick Design for thinking of me. Pop along to Thurston Manor Leisure Centre, its like a mini exhibition of my photos, some infrared photography in Scotland also.
This week sees me out and about for a conference photography event in Edinburgh, some newspaper work and as an event photographer, Edinburgh, Scotland, one of my most enjoyable events, the Scottish Taekwondo Championships ending at the weekend, in Motherwell, Scotland. I have a few conference photography events coming up and if time, today, Saturday, I will pop along to the Dunbar United cup game, cmon the boys, maybe have some sports photography photos of the game in a day or two.
Anyway until next time, I will leave you with one of my favourite photographs on display at Thurston Manor
Kind Regards

Hi All
This is very much a story of weather in our beloved Scotland. Once again all the games were cancelled for my newspaper photography shift in Midlothian at the weekend. As a professional freelance and event photographer in Edinburgh, Scotland, this is part of life and at least I get to shoot sports events all year round, with a host of events waiting for me in the summer, such as motor sports, athletics etc. I also have the Scottish Taekwondo Championships to photograph at the end of the month. The conference season has also started again and I am looking forward to some corporate conference photography in Scotland this week and next.
The Infrared photography in Scotland project continues and I will be delivering some East Lothian landscape photos and infrared images to Thurston Manor for display in one of their function rooms, later today. Here is a recent infrared photograph with this blog, see the weather hasn't been bad all the time.
Anyway, until next time.
All the best.
Kind Regards
Colin
