Mount Stuart – Bute

Towards the end of 2017, I was asked to head up to the Isle of Bute to photograph for the Mount Stuart Estate – an incredible house built by the Marquis of Bute at the end of the 19th Century – Described in 1900 as “one of the most magnificent specimens of domestic architecture in existence”.

The aim of the shoot was to show a real sense of the place and, in particular, the incredible staff who look after this incredible house and estate that surrounds it.
