Having photographed many weddings I find it interesting that no two are ever the same. Couples today have a great choice of venues for both the ceremony and the reception and a growing confidence in their ability to have the day exactly how they want it. It can be traditional, quirky, casual, intimate, whatever you [...]
Some of my work is being exhibited at the Gallery of Photography in Temple Bar, Dublin from 16th to 27th May. This exhibition marks the closing event of the tercentenary celebrations of the Medical School of Trinity College Dublin. The images were taken between 2008 and 2011, and document a series of patients’ visits to [...]
It was lovely to get a phone call from Achim and Catriona a year or so after I shot their wedding at St Andrews Church on Westland Row in Dublin and afterwards at the Westin Hotel. They are now the proud parents of baby Lotte Rose and they asked me would I photograph her baptism [...]
I’m just back from Italy having proofed the cover of my new book, ‘District Nine of Chianti – chasing boars and boar hunters in Tuscany’. It’s a bilingual work and for me it’s the culmination of two years of following a team of hunters in Tuscany. The book is being launched in Tuscany on 13th [...]

This is a photo from an upcoming exhibition at the Olivier Cornet Gallery. It was taken at the Santa Catalina Monastery in Peru. The monastery was built in 1580 and the tradition of the time indicated that the second son or daughter of a family would enter a life of service in the Church. The [...]
Karen and Michael were married on New Year’s Eve in Headford in Galway. We had a very enjoyable and relaxed morning getting ready before we headed out into what was possibly the worst weather I have ever experienced at a wedding, with the wind coming from every possible direction! The pretty local church however was [...]
Waterford Castle was the stunning location for Gina and Jonathan’s December wedding. It’s always nice to do a wedding at Christmastime and the day was cold but thankfully dry and bright. Waterford Castle is located on an island which means a short ferry journey over and this was a great opportunity to get some good [...]
