Scotland Fashion Photographer | Glasgow Style Editorial Lookbook
Scotland Style Lookbook | Glasgow Fashion Photographer
I always find beauty in things that
are odd and imperfect, they are
much more interesting.
— Marc Jacobs
I love shooting fashion in Scotland. Being a fashion photographer is another love of mine, it’s nice to not only limit myself to capture weddings, but something I am also passionate about is fashion! Glasgow has some of my favorite street styles in this country! I photographed these six looks for a Glasgow street style lookbook that was inspired by an incredibly talented and artistic team of ladies in Glasgow! The Art Direction and Outfit Styling was by a local designer named Amanda Blackwood, who kicks butt in the pairing and layering of outfits and fun color palettes. The lovely model was Lauren Scott, who has the moves like Jagger as well as the looks to kill. Lauren’s hair styles were all done by the queen of hair, Emma Diamond, and the facial looks were all designed by the master of make-up, Claire Nisbet! Scroll down to view the creative collaboration of these ladies all throughout downtown Glasgow! This was my first of now multiple shoots with these ladies that I have done in Glasgow. The fashion scene in Glasgow, Scotland is honestly so inspiring. There is something about the individuals there that I really resonate with. It’s that sassy street attitude that comes out in their clothing, (not their personalities), that I love! I tend to only wear muted tones, but I love capturing any fashion that is inspirational, and even though a few of these street style looks include bold pops of color, I can appreciate them and be inspired by them. You never know what can inspire you, so never stop creating and finding people and places that you resonate with.

Jono Smart & Emily Stephen | Glasgow Pottery & Woodturner
Jono Smart | Scotland Pottery | Scotland Photographer
I am just in awe of these two,
individually and as a couple.
Lately, I have really enjoyed highlighting creatives that inspire me with their work. Needless to say, Jono Smart and Emily Stephen are true inspirations. Between their color palette, chemistry, passion for unique handmade pottery and wood sculpting skills along with their love for each other … I could easily spend time with these two refreshing souls daily.
Here are a few words from them below, in their own words, to truly understand the essence of what they do as a pair and individually (and also because I am not a writer, ha). //
“We are Jono Smart and Emily Stephen, a Scottish based couple who live and work together. Jono is trained as a garden designer and works as a potter. Emily is trained as an architect and works as a woodturner and in the pottery studio. We also combine efforts to make sculptural works and installations. Our studio is a showcase of the things we make and design, our home, our neighbourhood and the landscape we live in.
We decided to combine our two practices, everything you see coming out of the studio is the result of our collaboration. We are constantly talking about and designing new work together and we believe our work is improved through our collaboration. There is a natural harmony between clay and wood, between the tree and the ground it grew from.
Both of us have worked closely with nature. Emily, while working as an architect, designed simple timber buildings, that sat quietly in their landscape. Jono worked with trees, hedges, water, stone and flowers when designing gardens. In our current work as a potter and a woodturner we rely on nature for our material. We try to impose as little as possible upon our pieces. Allowing the natural surfaces of wood and clay to be at the forefront of all we do.” - Jono + Emily
I hope everyone enjoys these lovely moments of Emily Stephen, Jono Smart and their handmade pieces below. I’m so grateful to have been able to document this stage of their journey, as they have already grown into a larger studio space a few weeks after this session was captured. I’m so honored to have been able to capture all of the growth and forward motion that has taken place this last year in this beautiful space in Glasgow.
You can also keep up with their latest work on their website and Jono + Emily’s Instagram pages.
