I had a brilliant shoot with Jim a few days ago!! He was a really lovely guy and made sure I was relaxed and comfortable throughout the shoot. He had some really cool ideas and gave me really good direction.

The photos looked incredible on the camera, and I can’t wait to see them :)

I would definitely work with him again and 100% recommend him to other models.

Had such a great shoot with Jim! A super friendly and chatty personality paired with great photography skills. Our shoot together took place in a studio. Jim pays great attention to detail and kept me in the know of whenever he would adjust the lighting or change angle which kept the atmosphere feeling nice and creative. He offers great input and suggestions and I felt very comfortable around him! Jim was very considerate, smiley and great to work with. It felt very collaborative which I really enjoy and would absolutely recommend him.

Jim was absolutely lovely to work with! Really easy-going guy and very easy to talk to.

Jim's approach is slow and methodical, making sure every shot is precisely thought out and every one a winner.

Jim is a really considerate guy and even brought healthy snacks to the shoot which was really going the extra mile and very much appreciated!

I'd absolutely love to work with Jim again, and maybe for a lot longer as there were so many ideas that we wanted to do that we didn't get time for in the end. Looking forward to the next one!

Jim was the most fun to work with!!! We met for our first shoot on Friday at Basement 49. Amazing studio choice. Jim made me laugh so much and creates a very relaxed and fun and atmosphere with lots of wee stories and jokes. He brought loads of tasty snacks including fresh fruit which was so thoughtful. I really appreciated the thought that had gone into the shoot, lots of of pre communication planning with ideas. At the shoot he was so lovely and we worked really well together coming up with lots of fun and quirky ideas. The photos on the camera looked amazing he is such a talented photographer!!! Cant wait to see them and would 1000% recommend working with him. I would love to organise another shoot :) Thanks Jim!

I shot with Jim for the first time this week and wow what a wonderful shoot.

I absolutely loved working with Jim, he is super chatty, a very good photographer with a clear idea of what he would like out of a shoot and of course a true gentleman, the day just flew in (well we kinda talked it all away hehe)

I highly recommend Jim and I hope to shoot with him again soon.

Much love,

Eve

Had a great shoot yesterday with Jim in Glasgow. Jim is an awesome fella, with great ideas and happy to bounce ideas of the models he works with.

He captured a lot of super cool shots by the looks of behind the camera.

Highly recommended and I look forward to working again someday.

Had the pleasure of working together recently and thoroughly enjoyed my time. Jim was very easy to shoot with communicated very well and explained everything. A friendly professional who was so easy to chat to, I felt more than comfortable and had a great time. Can't wait to see how the images turn out and hoping to work together again. Thanks so much Jim!

Had a shoot on Saturday with Jim, I highly recommend working with him if you haven't already.

The studio space we used was great, really looking forward to seeing some of the images. He also organised MUA Nike Johnston to come along for make up & she was also brilliant. The pair work together great and made it a fun and relaxing afternoon.

Thanks again!

I worked with the lovely Jim at Dreghorn Studio for a studio day as part of my Scottish tour recently and had such a lovely time! It was out first time working together but I instantly felt at ease in Jims company. He is such a gentleman to work with- kind, extremely considerate and a joy to be around and talk to. I felt like I was chatting to an old friend.

We ran through a mixture of fashion to art nude in the two hours we had together and time whizzed by! I wish we had more time as Jim is great company and I love his relaxed approach. The photos looked beautiful- and he bought me delicious chocolates! Thanks so much and I really hope to work with you again in the future, highly recommended, Helen x

Great photographer, I am new to modelling and he was great with showing me how to do things and giving me advice. Defo would come back.

I had a fantastic shoot yesterday with Jim. What a lovely, easy going guy! I was made to feel very comfortable throughout and he even arranged to meet up with me beforehand to ensure we were both happy about the direction of the shoot. The shoot was well directed and he offered consistent encouragement and ideas, as well as a good cuppa :). I highly recommend working with Jim to any model.

Had a shoot with Jim today and what a great day we had! He was even kind enough to pick me up from the station to save me from a short walk! The studio was great, Jim made sure I had water and coffee, the team were all so lovely! We all had a great laugh and the photos looked great from the back of the camera. Jim was very funny and personable, was so sweet and I would love to work with him again. Recommend to all! ❤

I've worked with Jim on a number of occasions now, and have never failed to have anything but a great time and a brilliant shoot with him. We've worked together since I started training in make-up artistry and he's always been patient, encouraging, and creative, with plenty of ideas and input to make each shoot individual and fun.

Jim has a great personality, and is incredibly funny, friendly and supportive - he's fantastic working with both experienced and new models, and can put them at ease instantly, making them comfortable and bringing out the best possible results from each shoot. The resulting photographs are always excellent - high-quality and original images that show what a talented photographer he is!

Jim is a joy to collaborate with, and I look forward to many more shoots with him in the future. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented, professional and friendly photographer for any kind of shoot. The results are always fantastic.

Even if you end up getting pursued by park rangers on location... ;)

Jim is a true joy to work with! He is kind and made me feel quite comfortable during our shoot. I can't wait to see the images, as they looked wonderful on the back of the camera! I would work with Jim again anytime I am in Scotland :)

Just wanted to leave a positive comment about my friend Jim. What he doesn't know about photography isn't worth knowing. He's a walking encyclopedia. Anyone shooting with him can be sure of the highest possible standards of excellence.

Ms Rose

Had an excellent shoot with Jim as part of a studio day at contrast. His pre and during shoot communications were excellent, he had good creative idea's for the kinds of shots he was after as well as being open to suggestions. His manner was friendly and has a good sense of humour as well as taking a professional approach. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others. Thank you for a rather pleasant shoot Jim roll on the next time :)
