A solution looking for a problem.
No longer a beginner, I get paid for taking pictures. I'm great value. I work hard. I am structured and thoughtful in my work.
My photography is about light and people.
- It's about being there and being ready to catch the moments before they come.
- It's about that fringe between the image and the
viewer that has its own light.
- It is not a measured statement of what I do, nor is it about the technology of photography.
- It is the view from here.
- It is not a sadly honest statement of who I am - do I want
to be that embarrassingly boring? No.
- It is a diary.
- It is censored.
- It is sweetened.
- It hides much and points up what I want you to see.
I moderate Contemporary Scotland, Edinburgh Sculpture Guide and Scotland in Words and Pictures Pools amongst others.
If you need someone to take photos of your work, your event or your people, send me a FLICKR mail or visit

for my professional website. I do a mean, good value Registry Office Wedding!

"Max is an all-round good guy! His stream conveys his look on the wonderful area we live in and often offers surprising and inspiring angles.
I'd be happy to commission him if I needed any work done and weren't so incredibly talented myself ;)
(beware I'm biased because he bought me a Guinness in the pub ;-)"22nd February, 2008

that girl from flashdance says:
"Hmm, what to say about Max?
I greatly admire the confidence he carries when speaking his mind. All too often on flickr people say the right things and are too afraid to be critical. Not so, Max.
I see this as a great strength and I appreciate the time he takes to critique my images..even if we don't always agree!
Visit the Wauchope set, these pictures were how I discovered Max's photostream and they are by far my favourite.
Well worth digging deep to see some of the previous uploads hidden away in his stream."29th November, 2007
