PHOTOGRAPHER, CINEMATOGRAPHER & DIRECTOR

“MY LOVE FOR SURFING HAS GROWN AND I FOUND MYSELF NOT JUST CHASING WAVES BUT CHASING THE CONNECTION AND FRIENDSHIPS THAT DEVELOP SO NATURALLY IN THESE COMMUNITIES.”


MIKE GUEST – Photographer | Cinematographer | Director

Based in Edinburgh, Scotland

I’m drawn to stories of belonging, passion, and connection—whether that’s in the ocean, on the road, or through the people who shape these spaces. My work blends documentary and cinematic storytelling, creating images and films that feel raw, real, and deeply human. From commercial campaigns to editorial features, I collaborate with brands, athletes, and communities to capture what drives them.
