About

I’m a photographer focused exclusively on one thing: creating high-quality headshots that make a strong first impression. Based in Glasgow, I work with actors, RCS students, business professionals and corporate organisations who need portraits that meet industry standards.

My work is shaped by current casting director guidance, Spotlight requirements and modern LinkedIn branding trends. This ensures the images I deliver aren’t just flattering — they’re functional. They help actors book auditions, help professionals enhance their online presence, and help companies create a cohesive, trustworthy brand identity.

Clients often tell me they were nervous before the session, but surprised by how comfortable and guided the process felt. That’s intentional — the most effective headshots come from a relaxed, collaborative environment.

If you’re preparing for the next step in your career — auditions, showcase, job interviews, LinkedIn updates or team branding — I’m here to help you create images that look like you at your best.

  • Another AMAZING experience for Katie, Pete is just the best in the business, makes you feels so at ease, incredible photography, would highly recommend.

    Joanne

  • Working with Pete was great! From end to end his services are exceptional, and the event photos came out so beautifully. Quick turn around and he just got stuck in on site with pretty minimal briefing from me! Would absolutely recommend and will definitely work with him again for our Glasgow events!

    Economist Impact

  • I needed professional headshots taken ASAP, and Pete was a recommendation from a friend. He understood the rush I was in and booked me in for a slot quickly. Both the quality of the headshots and the turnaround time were excellent, and Pete made me feel very at ease during the shoot. Really friendly guy, would definitely recommend!
