One of the inspiring things about diving with Nick is his vast knowledge of what's around us when we dive. Iv cased this fella from the coastlines of Scotland to the deep offshore peninsulas in Indonesia. But hands down, some of my best experiences have been in my homeland of Scotland. There might not be the big dog tooth Tuna or coral reefs, but I believe we've got something just as unique. It's been about four years or so that I have not been diving much at all, and it feels ace to be back on and back on it.

Also, a big thanks to the likes of Will Beeslaar Calum Burns, who have taught me a ton and are bat shit mad for this stuff.

At the start of 2022, I was looking at my relationship with film and photography, wondering if it was time to start thinking about the next move to stop making money from it and go back to interacting with it as a passion. After chats with Christina Force and some of the community of photographers that have been working with her, that thought started to shift, and iv tuned my focus back on what I love and how to move into shooing that personally and profoundly.

I'm an epic over-thinker at times, and on the flip side, so linked and driven by my gut instaibnket

Life for me is a journey of blurred lines of do's and don't, why's and why not's.

So what's next, Guesty? It's kelp more kelp and some more kelp, some seaweed, some dives, lots of playing with the new camera kit and finding a balance of shooing personal projects and paid work.
