Robin is a Scottish born photographer that has lived in Scotland, Australia and the South Pacific. This site is a showcase of his fine art landscape photography work. Robin uses natural light, composition and camera techniques to create striking and vibrant imagery and tell visual stories within the frame.
The work found on these pages are from the time Robin has spent in Australia, Norfolk Island and Scotland over the past 15-20 years. Enjoy looking around.
Using the art form of photography to tell visual stories is at the heart of Robin’s work. His vibrant and illustrative images bring landscapes from both sides of the globe to life.
Robin’s work centres around a core belief that a really good image needs to draw the viewer into its frame, and to do this it needs to have a beginning, a middle, and an ending in some form. Responding to what’s in front of the camera, composing the shot and choosing the moment of capture to create that visual narrative is an incredibly complex, nuanced and infinitely variable thing. The moment may take place in a millisecond or it may take several minutes, it may be an off-chance moment or it may take days, weeks, months or even years of planning. Using the art form to tell a visual story is the essence of photography and while 99% of people taking photos don’t necessarily recognise that, it’s essentially what they are hoping to achieve.

“Photography has taken me to a great many places and has become part of a lifelong journey. To be able to travel to spectacular locations and capture nature’s beauty is a wonderful privilege and one I never take for granted.”
