WHY
RECOUNTER

Photography

Every Recounter image should tell a story. You might have already heard our photography philosophy is to capture real life emotive moments framed alongside well-kent spots from the course. Our ethos is to capture reaction, not just the action, meaning we’re more likely to be hunting down those memorable candid moments between friends.

Design

Don’t worry, we’re not going to leave the design of the photo book to you. There are design principles and a science behind piecing together an epic photo book layout. This starts with our photography team capturing balanced coverage of each golfer from the course, all photographed with the end product in mind.

Product

Being the teller of a tale comes with a responsibility. Using the finest materials, each handcrafted photo book is treated with the greatest of care and workmanship, ensuring their quality stands the test of time to be passed through future generation, and guarantee bragging rights.

WHAT ELSE WE DO

We're not just known as the photo book guys! We’re often working on photography and filmmaking assignments commissioned by leading golf brands to showcase their product.

[BETA MODE] Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.

Commissions

Partnerships is essentially Recounter for business. Brands trust our integrity, discreetness and professionalism to enhance their guest experience. Our friends at VisitScotland recognise the role our Handmade Photo books and golf trip photography play in showcasing Scotland as the go-to global golf destination for companies.

Partnerships

There’s nothing more fulfilling as photographers than seeing our images published. Whether our photography is featured in St Andrews Links’ annual yearbook or via golf industry platforms, we love contributing our pictures to tell the whole story.

Editorial

When our schedule opens up we can be found on the four corners of the globe covering tournament golf. This is where we break our golden rule shooting action over reaction although auto-pilot kicks in when the drama unfolds.

Tournament

As a new entrant to the golf filmmaking market we’re a little behind the curve but that’s the real motivation. As with our photography philosophy, our ambition is to create a reputable filmmaking business with a unique cinematic style, that our audience are compelled to watch and share.

Filmmaking

When leading golf brands come calling we adapt our photography to fit their brief. We achieve this by pulling on the expertise of our team and equipment to blend our natural style with staged photography to create visually strong catalog ready results.

Product

We are incredibly proud to manage the official photography service at St Andrews Links, the Home of Golf. The chances are if you’re travelling with a golf tour operator on a guaranteed Old Course tee time, one of our official photographers will meet you on the 1st tee.

TEAM

JOIN OUR TEAM

Kevin Kirk

The guy behind Recounter whose vision, drive and philosophy set the benchmark and expectation for everything we do. Kevin didn’t just want to be a photographer, instead he’s leading the way in building something special and won’t stop until he does. His idea of “switching off” is to spend the winter on the world’s best surf breaks shooting surfers for fun.

Andrew Arthur

You’ve probably figured by now we unearth talent and turn them into great golf photographers. Andrew is another. His enterprising and resilient nature is a perfect match when plotting his way around the golf course. Away from the day job he’s likely filming a music video on a party boat in the Med.

Gavin Craigie

Our original wild card appointment plucked out of the grungy Dundee gig photography scene, Gavin’s proved you don’t need to know golf to be a top golf photographer and filmmaker. When not covering golf, he’s probably tinkering with vintage cameras or listening to bands you’ve probably never heard of.

Matthew Thompson

Every successful brand needs someone behind the scenes managing operations and Matthew is that guy. If he’s not on the ground in planning mode, you’ll find him orchestrating design and production, before signing off our epic products with his seal of approval. In his downtime, he’s probably out on his paddle board or cutting up the streets on his longboard.

Kirsty Erskine

Our resident coffee junkie, Kirsty is another talented recruit who broke the mould with no golf background. She quickly grasped the reaction over action mentality that’s ingrained in our DNA. You’ll rarely spot Kirsty taking your photo, but when you do, you’ll never forget her friendly smile (even when it’s raining!).

Tibor

We can only reveal our master craftsman “Tibor” by his hands. Lab based, his hands are his tools. Each book he touches is treated with the greatest of care and workmanship, ensuring their quality stands the test of time to be passed through future generations. Chocolate to Tibor is like kryptonite to Superman.
