How many images will I receive?

For a standard content session, you typically receive between 40 and 60 fully edited images. This provides enough variety to cover several weeks of posting without repeating yourself. I focus on quality over quantity, but I ensure there are plenty of alternative crops and detail shots included to give you maximum flexibility for your social media layouts and stories.

Do you offer video for Reels or TikTok?

My primary focus is high-end stills, but I can provide short-form video clips alongside your photographs. These are captured specifically for social media use, such as b-roll of you working or 10-second atmospheric clips of your products. If you need dedicated, high-production video, we can discuss a specific plan, but most clients find these supplemental clips perfect for their Reels.

Can we shoot at multiple locations in Edinburgh?

Yes, we can split the session across two nearby locations if it makes sense for your brand. For example, we might start with shots in your office or studio and then head outside to capture some lifestyle or architectural shots in the surrounding streets. As long as it fits within the agreed timeframe, moving between spots in the New Town or Leith is no problem.

What is the turnaround time for the photos?

I know social media moves fast, so I don't make you wait weeks for your images. You will typically receive your final, edited gallery within 3 to 5 working days. If you have a specific launch date or a deadline for a campaign, let me know in move and I will work to accommodate your schedule.

What should I wear for a content shoot?

Avoid heavy patterns or large logos that date quickly, unless they are your own brand. Solid colours generally work best and keep the focus on you. I recommend bringing a couple of layers or different shirts so we can create the illusion of multiple days of shooting in one session. This makes your content bank look much more varied when you post it over several weeks.

Edinburgh Content Photographer

Ross Nixon Photography provides high-quality social media assets for brands and individuals in Edinburgh. I deliver professional, unpolished but high-end imagery designed for digital platforms and marketing consistency.

The demand for high-quality, professional imagery on social media is constant, but most businesses lack the time to produce it consistently. If you are operating a brand or personal profile in Edinburgh, you know the city looks great, but your iPhone shots often fail to capture the actual quality of your work. I provide content photography that sits between formal advertising and casual snapshots. Whether you are a chef on Thistle Street needing fresh plates for Instagram or a consultant in a New Town office looking to update your LinkedIn and Reels, I provide a library of assets in one session. We focus on natural light, real environments, and the specific aesthetics that perform well on modern digital platforms.

What's included

When you book a content session, you are not just getting a few files; you are getting a structured bank of imagery to fuel your marketing for months. Each session is tailored to your brand. For some, that means a focus on process shots—the behind-the-scenes work that builds trust with an audience. For others, it is about the final product or the person behind the business. I provide high-resolution images suitable for print and web, alongside specifically cropped versions ready for Instagram Stories, Reels covers, and TikTok backgrounds. I handle the editing to ensure a consistent colour palette across all shots, which is vital for a professional-looking grid. You get a private online gallery where you can download your files immediately. There are no hidden licensing fees or complicated usage rights for social media. You pay for the session and the images are yours to use across your digital channels to grow your business. This service is designed to be efficient, providing a high volume of quality content without the bloat of a full-scale commercial production.

How it works

The process is designed to be as low-friction as possible. We start with a brief chat or email exchange to establish what you need. I want to know who your audience is and what platforms you use most. We then pick a date and a location that makes sense for your brand. On the day, I work quickly to capture a variety of setups, angles, and details. I don't use heavy lighting rigs that disrupt your workspace; I prefer to work with what is available to keep the images looking authentic. Following the shoot, I cull the best shots and apply a professional grade. You will receive your finished gallery within a few days. From there, you can start posting immediately. It is a straightforward exchange: you get professional photography that looks like your brand, and I handle the technical side of making it look good.

Local detail

Edinburgh is a gift for content photography because of the sheer variety of backdrops. I often work with clients around the EH2 and EH3 postcodes, using the clean lines of the New Town for professional service brands. If you need something more textured or industrial, the converted warehouses and waterfronts in Leith offer a different energy. I have shot extensively in the independent shops of Stockbridge and the narrow closes off the Royal Mile. Because I am based right here in the city, I know exactly when the light hits certain spots, like the afternoon sun on Circus Lane or the morning light at Victoria Street. Travel within the city bypass is included, and I can move between locations easily. If you are based further out, like in South Queensferry or Musselburgh, I can be there in thirty minutes. You don't need to hire a studio when the city offers world-class architecture and interiors as part of the daily landscape. We use the streets and spaces that your customers already recognise to build local authority.
