Fine Art Photography
After 22 years in investment banking, Scott returned to fine art photography, a subject he had previously studied in college under Emmet Gowin and William Eggleston, among many others. In early 2009, after rediscovering old prints and negatives in the attic, he re-immersed himself in photography.
Numerous exhibitions and group shows have since followed, including inclusion in eight Royal Academy Summer Exhibitions, and two solo exhibitions at the prestigious Hamiltons Gallery in London. Two photographic books have been published, and his photographs are in many institutional and private collections around the world. All profits from book and print sales are donated to Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children in London.
