Ladies Portrait and Fashion Photography

We had a great shoot with Steph last week which was not only fun but produced some fabulous images.

These type of shots are typical of what 80eight can do for you - fun, fashionable, glamorous and just a little bit different. So if you want a great portrait of yourself or a partner, then give 80eight a call. We don't do boring, we don't do run of the mill - we do special and unique, all with the highest possible quality.

Scottish Motorsport Photography at Duns MX




Being keen motorsport fans we went up to the fabulous Motocross Circuit at Duns last weekend to catch a race or two. The weather was sunny and the action was great. The circuit is just amazing with lots of jumps and turns, while the Borders MX Club did a great job of making sure everything ran smoothly. It's our first time there, but we'll certainly be back - especially for the British MX Championship round which is being held on the 2nd of May.

Many thanks to Chris Macvie for giving us access to the circuit. Chris also has a great web design business based in Edinburgh - check his work out here.

Bands & Musicians : Multimedia Press Packs



We've just completed a multimedia press pack for Lost in Audio - all photography, layout, motion graphics and design done in-house by 80eight Photography & Design. We think this is the perfect way of showcasing a band or musicians talent. Not only can the press pack be hosted on YouTube but it can be made available for mobile devices, burnt to DVD or even projected on to a huge screen.

So, if you're in a band and want to make the biggest impact you can with A&R guys, promoters or fans - contact us and we'd be happy to sit down with you and understand your requirements.
