“I began my journey into image-making at 17 years old. Whilst living and working in the Scottish Highlands, I started collaborating with my sister Jocasta - a digital illustrator. Together, we created a fine art photo-digital exhibition inspired by the characteristics and folklore of the Highlands, expressed through the human form. The work was selected by the UK’s leading art publisher - Washington Green - to be exhibited nationally, and soon formed the basis of my style and practises today.
I believe that collaboration and great storytelling are the two fundamental pillars for creating powerful imagery. In every aspect of my work, I approach each project with great passion and ambition to make brands unforgettable; capturing everything they are, or aspire to be. Having lived and worked in some of Scotland’s most sought-after areas for film & photography, I’ve been provided endless stimulation for my imagination. It is what enthrals me most and gives me the best ideas.”
“Jodie is an immense talent. Her unparalleled, distinctive style and the creative vision that she brings to every project, elevates the imagery far beyond what was originally conceived. Jodie’s highly collaborative and a joy to work with. She exudes an infectious positivity that permeates through her team and ultimately delivers a fantastic shoot experience. She approaches every job with the upmost professionalism and the end result is always something very special.”

“Working with Jodie on behalf of Nuveen Real Estate; developer & owner of W Edinburgh was an absolute pleasure. Jodie produced a series of images used in the hotel’s rooms, suites and public areas as well as introducing us to three artists who went on to produce art pieces for the hotel. Her professionalism, creativity and attention to detail throughout couldn’t be faulted, always ensuring her work slotted in with the agreed design narrative. Her calm approach and obvious respect from her fuller team throughout the two photoshoots I sat through was a joy to watch.
We were all thrilled with the results and would highly recommend Jodie to anyone seeking a talented and dedicated photographer.”
