I’m Adrian, the owner of Lumens & Grace Photography. I am a devoted Christian, husband, father of two children and full-time nerd.
I am an IT Engineer with a deep passion for photography. While my photography skills are self-taught, my immense love for capturing life's fleeting moments through the lens is fueled by a profound connection to the beauty of the world. This passion is further ignited by my love for travel and exploration, especially when shared with my beloved family.
I live in West Lothian in Scotland but I serve Edinburgh, Lothians, Glasgow and wherever life takes me.
I can say that my journey as a Christian has deeply influenced my path in life. My core values of love, compassion, and gratitude have shaped my interactions with others and my approach to photography. Through the lens of my camera, I strive to capture the beauty and fleeting moments in everyday life, moments that reflect the light and grace of creation. My faith inspires me to see the world with reverence and empathy, allowing me to connect with my subjects on a deeper level and bring a sense of authenticity to my work. It is this perspective that has guided me to where I am today, cherishing every moment and finding joy in the simple blessings that surround me.
As a self-proclaimed nerd, I revel in all sorts of role-playing video games and frequently indulge in the captivating world of anime and manga. My passion for immersive storytelling and fantastical worlds knows no bounds, as I eagerly delve into new adventures and characters with unbridled enthusiasm. Whether I’m strategising with friends against Tiamat in a D&D campaign, plotting against friends who play Propaganda on turn 2 of MTG Commander, or immersing myself in the whimsical landscapes of Studio Ghibli films, my love for all things nerdy shines brightly in my life. One day, I would love to attend anime conventions and immerse myself in the vibrant and passionate community that celebrates Japanese animation and culture. The idea of meeting fellow anime lovers, cosplaying as my favorite characters, and attending panels featuring industry creators and voice actors excites me. I imagine wandering through artist alleys filled with unique fan art and merchandise and participating in lively discussions about the latest anime series and manga.
