About Reuben Tabner
Adventure photographer based in the Scottish Highlands
Hello, I’m Reuben Tabner, a commercial and editorial photographer based in Inverness, at the heart of the Scottish Highlands. I specialise in action and adventure sports photography, working with brands, race organisers and athletes to create fresh, authentic imagery that tells powerful stories and elevates your visual identity.
My work is rooted in the wild places I love — from the rugged peaks of Scotland to remote trails and windswept coastlines. I grew up on the edge of the North Sea in North Yorkshire, and that salt air still runs in my blood. Now, the mountains are my home, and both environments continue to shape how I see and shoot.
With a documentary-style approach and a background in endurance sport, I immerse myself in the culture and community of the outdoors. Whether it’s trail running, mountain biking, climbing, sailing or swimming — I’m not just observing; I’m in it with you. That’s how I capture the emotion, effort, and raw beauty of the moment.
Why Work With Me?
If you’re looking for a photographer who understands life at the sharp end of endurance and adventure, you’re in the right place. I’ll work with you to craft imagery that’s visually powerful, emotionally resonant, and always grounded in real experience.
Let’s tell bold stories together.

Seven things to know about me:
- I love espresso. Possibly a little too much.
- I’m married to Katie — my partner in life and many mountain adventures.
- I miss the sea when I’m in the hills, and the hills when I’m by the sea.
- Winter runs are my therapy — the cold air clears the mind.
- Katie and I once lived and worked in Nepal for six months — a deeply humbling chapter in our lives.
- I’ve raced ultra marathons and 24-hour MTB events in the UK and the Alps, and climbed a 6,000m peak in Nepal.
- I have a thing about the number seven.
