How to Take a Cutting From Red Robin Tree (Photinia)

We have an established photinia (Red Robin) tree, which we have in a pot and it has become quite dense. We are intending to prune this but wondered if there is a good time to do this. Also, it is a tree rather than a bush and has developed a few leaves growing from about mid way up the trunk. We want to take a cutting from this to hopefully have some more of this variety and wanted to know how/when to do this and whether we should remove the leaves from the trunk or not?
