Isle of Harris artist, photographer
and writer
Welcome – I’m a Scottish artist, photographer and writer living on the Isle of Harris in the Scottish Outer Hebrides. I run my own gallery at my home in Geocrab. I photograph a small number of weddings as well on the Outer Hebrides and Highlands of Scotland.
The stillness and being surrounded by sea and nature on Harris is at the heart of my creative work. I created all my creative retreats, photography workshops and creative festival from a belief that creativity is vital for well-being.
Being surrounded by like-minded creatives enriches our lives and encourages us to take time to be creative, so I love bringing people together, to quiet beautiful places to retreat and absorb nature together.
