This is Islay, an island within the Inner Hebrides chain off the West coast of Scotland.  Here we have a combination of globally renowned distilleries, unspoilt beaches, diverse wildlife and rich history, and it all makes for a truly unique island to visit, and a great place to live. I have captured the natural beauty of Islay through my work, and my alternative approach to photography has gained many admirers and collectors worldwide. In addition, I undertake commissions across the island for both private individuals and local businesses... 

The images on this site speak louder than words can describe. You will see for yourself what brought me to Islay in 2010 and why I have stayed ever since!

Enjoy the photographs as much as I did taking them.
