Biography

Phil is a Licentiate member of the British Professional Photographers Assoc. and the Royal Photographic Society and lives on the Isle of Mull, Scotland.

He has passion and enthusiasm for the Isle of Mull, photography and the great outdoors, which when combined with magnificent scenery, diverse flora and fauna and the remarkable quality of light provide a continual source of photographic opportunity and inspiration. Here photography is not only a profession but a way of life and Phil's experience is clearly evident.

He has empathy with natural detail and pattern believing these to be the building blocks of the natural world. This combined with attention to colour, shape and texture brings wonderment from the most commonplace of subjects. From atmospheric landscapes to creative abstracts Phil has a continually expanding and diverse Photo Library of traditional and digital well edited nature and landscape images ranging from macro to telephoto. Photography that speaks for itself. Always looking for those special images with something extra to lift them above the ordinary.

As a fully equiped photographer now working almost exclusively in digital format Phil is able to offer a quick turnaround of images for clients and deliver images via CD, email or uploaded directly to you via your FTP account. Phil is a member of the Canon Professional Service (CPS), the National Association of Photoshop Professionals (NAPP) and an experienced Adobe Photoshop CS3 user committed to embracing the progress of the latest digital photography technology.

"We will always offer a professional service with a creative, flexible and friendly approach to your image requirements and always endeavour to meet your project demands and timescale needs. When you become our customer you are very important to us, we will always go that bit further to get the images you want".

He is a photographer producing prints, cards and stock nature & environmental images, in both traditional and digital form. He is available for commercial or private commissioned work.
