About

I am a professional photographer based in Kenmare, Co. Kerry which is a very beautiful part of Ireland. My passion for photographing the landscape here began in 1992 and I have been endlessly inspired by my surroundings ever since.

I studied photography at IADT and after graduating in 1995 I worked as an assistant in commercial photography and occasionally as a freelance photographer. I held various positions for over 18 years in a busy editorial sports photography agency during which time I relocated back to Kerry full time.

In 2011 I began work on my first book “ PARKLIGHT – Images of Killarney National Park “ which was published in 2013 and is now in it’s third reprint. It was awarded 2nd place in the International Photography Awards book category in 2014 and remains the only photography book published on Ireland’s premier national park.

That three year project led to the pursuit of my long held desire to concentrate fully on landscape photography and having had success at various commercial art shows and exhibitions I opened my own gallery in Kenmare in 2015.

The gallery is open all year round and is a hugely enjoyable and busy element of my life in with the landscape. It’s a great source of pride to have my work hanging on walls and corporate venues all over the world and it’s wonderful to meet so many different people who visit the gallery each year and see their reaction to our beautiful landscape here.

I am currently working on my next book project, focusing on the wild and rugged Beara Peninsula, due for publication in 2018.
