History leaves its mark.
I’m Jim Scott, a photographer and visual storyteller based in Northumberland, England.
I photograph landscapes, people and traditions where the past remains visible in the present — exploring how history continues to shape the places we live, work and travel through.
Places with stories worth telling.

Evocative photographs captured on the stunning Northumberland coastline. Listed as an ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’, these many iconic locations are full of history and are a dream for photographers.
COUNTRYSIDe
Northumberland has hundreds of square miles of rolling hills and beautiful countryside. Providing countless opportunities to capture photographs in diverse landscapes, changing weather conditions and stunning locations.
Dark Skies
With 572 square miles of the county having been awarded Gold Tier Dark Skies status, Northumberland is home to the largest Dark Sky Park in the UK. It often plays host to natural phenomenon such as the Aurora, set against incredible backdrops.

Wyoming is known as the cowboy state. Here are a selection of images from my 2025 trip to the world famous, Diamond Cross Ranch.
FURTHER AFIELD
Increasingly I am looking further afield for great photographs, and for opportunities to experience and capture something special. Here are a selection from around the world.
Social Media
This project is setting out to be the first ever photographic catalogue of all of Northumberland’s castles.
With 70 castles across the county, Northumberland has more than any other in England. In fact if you count Peles and Bastles there are well over 100.
