Music at Paxton | Festival Photography at Paxton House, Berwick
I’ve had the pleasure of photographing the Music at Paxton festival several times now, capturing everything from live performances to the quiet, in-between moments that make this event so special. Held each summer at Paxton House, near Berwick-upon-Tweed, the ten-day festival brings together world-class musicians and local audiences for a family-friendly celebration of chamber music.
My approach to photographing the festival is documentary-style — blending into the background to capture the energy of rehearsals, the intimacy of performances, and the beauty of the setting. I’ve also created portraits of individual musicians and photographed some of the elegant architectural and natural details around the venue, which feature in the festival’s brochure, website, and promotional materials.
It’s always a joy to work with the Music at Paxton team and to be part of a cultural event that showcases the best of music and hospitality in the Scottish Borders.
