Des McLean Urban Glasgow PR Shoot

Glasgow comedian Des McLean recently commissioned me to take a series of PR & Profile photographs for him. Des was heading to New Zealand to play a series of major gigs for the Rugby World Cup and the venues wanted up to date pictures of him to promote his appearances.

We decided to use Glasgow landmarks for the session, without making them the obvious touristy type of pictures. So as you will see you get the urban view of Glasgow with a varied selection of backgrounds. If you know Glasgow well try and guess where the pictures were taken, I will list the answers at the bottom of this blog. 

These and other pictures appeared on billboards and on TV commercials across New Zealand so it was good to see them put to use on the other side of the world. If you would like to see more examples of my work, please visit my website or call me on 01360 661029. 


















So where were they taken:
1, 16 and 17 - Just near Kelvingrove Subway Station
2 - Glasgow Museum of Modern Art
3,4,5 - Royal Exchange Square
6 - Police Box in Buchanan Street
7 - River Clyde with the BBC in the background
8,9 - Mint Hotel, River Clyde
10 - Glasgow Armadillo, SECC
11 - Clyde Side Express Way Pedestrian Footbridge
12 - Exhibition Train Station
13,14,15 - Ashton Lane off of Byers Road in the West End
