David
Eustace was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1961. His simple
and no nonsense portraits seem reflective of his
life’s experiences, prior to being a photographer he
served with HM Royal Navy before working as a Prison
Officer in Scotland’s most notorious Prison HMP
Barlinnie. Void of any gimmicks, "there is an honesty to
his work".
His highly successful Deutsche Bank sponsored
“EGO” Exhibition in Cork St; London
(which was the subject of a 30 minute BBC
documentary) was described as “Beautiful, calm
portraiture, a true rarity these days. He has worked for
most major magazines and his list of sitters include: Sir
Paul McCartney, Sophia Loren, Sir John Mills, Eve Arnold,
Dame Judy Dench, James Earl Jones, Ewan McGregor, John
Hurt, Alec Baldwin and Radiohead, to name a few.
There are private collections of his work worldwide,
including Deutsche Bank, The National Portrait Gallery,
London and The Glasgow Museum of Modern Art. David’s
photography is not solely restricted to Portraiture, his
Fashion, Landscape and Documentary work is also widely
recognized and this versatility has led to him being
respected as a “photographers photographer”.
In the past few years David has also directed TV
commercials for clients such as The Royal Bank of Scotland
Group, The National Australian Bank, The Scottish Executive
Anti Drugs Campaign, The North of England Tourist Board and
The Herald and News Quest Group of Newspapers.
David spends his time between New York City and
Glasgow.
