Hi All
The sun is finally shining, great time to be a professional photographer in Scotland, so I have been out there photographing infrared images in Edinburgh and East Lothian, to boost my infrared in Scotland photography project. Also I was honoured to receive a phone call from the organiser of the Lammmermuir Festival, who will be using one of my landscape photos of Belhaven Bay, just outside Dunbar. This Festival held in September is wonderful cultural event in the East Lothian and Scottish calendar for that matter, representing a wide range of theatre, music and arts, looking forward to it. Also some bunjee jumping photography in Glasgow at the weekend, cant wait and some corporate event conference photography in Edinburgh next week. I have also been updating my urban street photography stock images out and about in Scotland and hope to get them on the website as soon as possible, some new ones from Edinburgh taken on Friday.
Anyway, until next time.
Kind Regards

Hi All
Probably my busiest 5 days of the year as a professional commercial photographer in Edinburgh, with a corporate event photography commission in Edinburgh on Thursday and Friday with NHS Education for Scotland, some infrared photography in East Lothian, followed by some wakeboarding sport photography and finishing with a Supercar event. hence the reason for the late blog. Attached is a car photo from a recent event, I decided to convert to black and white and give it a kind of grainy film look about it, what do you think?
I am busy editing all this work and hope to have a wee rest at the weekend, but photographers never really rest do they. I always carry a camera with me and although this is not such a big deal since mobile phones were invented, it still gives me the edge over the mobile phone photos, I hope, sorry I don't care how the high the megapixel count is, they just aren't as good as real cameras, especially when you decide to print, or when objects are moving, or low light photography. More infrared photography soon, some infrared photography in East Lothian and bungee jumping photos in Glasgow. - watch this space.
Anyway, until next time.
Kind Regards
Colin

Hi All
This is the start of what will be a busy week. My infrared photography is selling well and plans will soon be made to convert a Nikon D800 into infrared, with a view to have poster sized enlargements of my infrared images, to further enhance my Infrared Photography in Scotland project. The reason I am delaying the conversion, is I want to try out the Nikon D800 at a conference photography commission in Edinburgh for NHS Education for Scotland on Thursday and Friday of this week. As a professional event photographer in Scotland, you have to be on the look out to try new gear, techniques and ways of working, in order to move forward. Although I am mainly a Canon user, I also use Fuji and Panasonic Lumix equipment and used to be a Nikon user. In fact I have been tempted by Nikon recently for my infrared work and may start considering them for other commissions.
Enough of my waffle, busy end to the week with some sports photography and say hello if you see me with my infrared camera, as the weather is pretty good for it these days.
Anyway, until next time.
Kind Regards
Colin

Hi All
A busy weekend photographing motor sport at Ingliston Edinburgh, photos to follow in due course. I have also had the opportunity to get some infrared photography photography in East Lothian, as part of my Infrared Photography in Scotland project. I purchased a high resolution Nikon D800 camera, which I will get converted in due course, to enable poster sized fine art infrared landscape prints in infrared from various locations around Scotland - watch this space. Other than that, I have been doing some wakeboarding photography at Foxlake, the attached infrared image is from the Foxlake Advertures facility near Dunbar and what a great place it is too, my daughter is hooked on wakeboarding, so I will be driving her there lots in the near future - as for me, I am a bit long in the tooth for wakeboarding, the younger me would have loved it though. I am also getting all prepared for a corporate event photography two day conference in Edinburgh next week. As a commercial professional event photographer in Scotland, this is one of my biggest commissions of the year and I always look forward to it.
Anyway, until next time.
Kind Regards
Colin

Hi All
Another busy week with some sports photography at the weekend followed by a very enjoyable music photography commission in Dunbar, Scotland on Sunday, with Setting Sons. A great day and an opportunity to participate in a genre of photography that I love. Music photography is great fun and with Grahame Smith being a well established photographer with a good reputation for high quality wedding photography, he was happy to give me full creative control, a photo attached. Good to hear the band will be playing again in August this year.
I have a new conference photography Edinburgh commission in a couple of weeks time, at the NHS Education for Scotland Medical conference in Edinburgh. This is usually a great event photography commission and as a professional event photographer in Edinburgh, one that I enjoy. I know the staff at NHS Education for Scotland well, they are a great bunch and it assists me when taking the photos. This week has also meant some fresh opportunities to take some infrared photography, to enhance my Infrared Photography in Scotland project, up at Traprain Law again, one of my favourite places.
Anyway, until next time
Kind Regards
Colin
