Our Story
I am a BA qualified Professional Photographer with a post grad in Social Arts Practice. A married, dad of two (no longer children) children! A passionate Scot who loves the outdoors and feels very lucky to be born and based on the West Coast of Scotland. Family is everything to me, we are a creative bunch and it is a huge driver for my photography having documented and collated endless memorable moments with them over the years. Photography to me is more than taking a picture. When I went on to study my post grad in Social Arts Practice, my creativity really came alive. Understanding the power of imagery and people, I have adopted an organic process which allows every session to develop in a way that is rooted through communication. I have been lucky enough to enjoy significant and acclaimed success in my practice.
Perhaps the most important thing is that I truly love what I do and feel that it matters. Always up for a chat, a plan or a plot! We created Tartan Portraits to provide a more accessible way to engage with us. Providing an outline of our service to give clients a starting point, but please do drop us an email to discuss your ideas!

SIMPLY THE BEST - Picture Perfect Company
Celebrating a special 70th Birthday Party and tried several companies but none fitting the criteria; level of experience, costs of engaging them, meet the needs for us as a group and the communcation before the event. On the day, Tartan Portriats excelled and met all the above criteria and more ! Gordon and Ali offered several excellent ideas we had not considered, they had an easy going approach in engaging with guests at the party - including children and making everyone feel so relaxed and most important leaving myself, as the organiser, time to enjoy the moment and not feeling rushed ! Will definately use them again and recommend them to friends and family.
Great to work with throughout
Both Gordon and Ali were great from the beginning, they helped us get an idea of what we wanted and then built it up into a fantastic gallery from the day. They were happy to make accommodations for our requests and even provided a video capture of our most important moments. Their photos really capture the magic of the day, from the posed ones of the happy couple to the chaotic ones of the kids playing around. They were both really easy to work with and didn't make us feel like we were being bossed about at all, and they managed to blend in and capture photos in a more natural way, which is what we were after.
BEST MINI-WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER IN SCOTLAND
Our special day was so lovely and will be commemorated due to Tartan Portraits photography. Gordon kept making jokes, so we could laugh and relax thus the photos looked more natural. He stayed with us before and during the ceremony, wedding and park photoshoot, 4 hours in total. Park photo session was magic due to the bubble surprise. Before the wedding, we were looking for a photographer who would document our marriage journey at a reasonable price, not over-artistic, over-priced way like many photographers on the market. Gordon fulfilled our wish well. Our families are in awe of photos. We recommend! Agata & Damian
