This photographer captured Glasgow for 30 years. What’s changed?
Very nicely I’ve been interviewed by The Glasgow Bell news website, about my latest zines showcasing some of my photography of Glasgow of the last 30+ years.
Our Fathers Fought Franco
Portraits from a recent assignment here in Glasgow, down by the River Clyde, to photograph Willey Maley, Tam Watters, and Jennie Renton, who have come together to write the story of their fathers who went to fight fascism in Franco’s Spain, ‘Our Fathers Fought Franco’.
Demolition on the Wyndford Estate
Yesterday I headed up to the north west side of Glasgow, to the Maryhill area, to watch as three tower blocks on the Wyndford Estate were brought down, demolished, in a controlled explosion. Always a fascinating event to witness, but also one with much poignancy.

On assignment it is imperative the photographer is present at the heart of the matter, but while it is good to be in the room, it isn’t good to be in the way.

Shipbuilding, on the River Clyde
‘We name this ship…’ - As a Glasgow-based photographer I feel incredibly fortunate to live near the River Clyde, and from time to time have had the opportunity to experience dynamic ship launches in the last few remaining shipbuilding yards on the the Clyde…
