About Me

Well if you’re here you probably want to know a little more about me. I am a Wicklow based photographer and I’ve been doing it for quite some time now. I am a graduate of Griffith College Dublin with a Diploma in Photographic Media (distinction and highest academic achiever) I was shortlisted for Oxygen News Photographer of the year 2008 and was one of the Hot Press / HTC Photojournalist Competition finalists in 2012. I specialise in portraiture both environmental and studio. My images have been published nationally and internationally and even landed on the pages of a few glossy magazines but more, importantly they have allowed me to capture some incredible shared moments and introduced me to some wonderful people.

“He specialises in portraiture and has produced work for many publications. He has a distinct use of lighting in his work. The images are clean, stylish and well composed. He describes himself as laid back but his results are the result of endeavour and thought”
