1 REDISCOVERY
This was my first front cover in 2021 with PB/HJ Ireland. It was shot in 2015 but I only sent it out recently and it’s been great seeing people falling in love with it again.
2 SLICK
This image is from my latest 4 collection. I wanted to show people that slicked, wet hair worn confidently off the face and neck is beautiful.
3 GOING GLOBAL
I shot this image in 2022 and it was published all over the world. The international press used it on quite a few front covers and it won several awards.
4 PLAYING FAVOURITES
An all-time favourite from one of my first shoots in 2021. It made me realise I was skilled enough to enter the British Hairdressing Awards and I finalised for Scottish Hairdresser of the Year for the first time.
5 A GENTLEMAN
I had never entered Men’s Hairdresser of the Year at the British Hairdressing Awards before, but I finalised with this collection. I have a large clientele and really enjoy working on men’s and women’s hair.
6 ON LOCATION
This was the first time I had shot outside on location. It was 2014 and everything came together perfectly – the model, the make-up, the hair and the photography.
7 SCOTTISH STAR
This collection is very special to me as I won Scottish Hairdresser of the Year for the first time. To see it published around the world has been an incredible feeling.
