On 29 September, I not only got to see my friends tie the knot, I got to photograph it all take place.

Here’s a little taster of what happened that day. Hair – Purely HairMakeup – Lucy BradleyFlowers – FloraliaCake – Lily PinkVenue –  The Ulster Folk and […]

Visitors at Queen’s

Being a world-class university, Queen’s often gets world leaders and high profile guests on campus to speak at events and celebrations. This week, we had Secretary Hillary Clinton over to receive an honorary graduate degree for Doctor of Laws. I was one of a couple of photographers allowed to photograph her time at the university. It’s always exciting to see your photo used somewhere, but when it makes the front page of the newspaper, that’s pretty damn cool.

New York, Baby – Travel Photography

In February, Fiona and I just did that thing we’d always dreamt of doing and said, “SCREW IT, LET’S JUST GO!” So we booked to go to New York City for a full week. What an incredibly stressful three weeks of planning I had before hand, but holy shizznit, was it worth it! We’d booked a hotel through Secret Escapes that was right beside the Empire State Building, which is very central to Manhattan so planning what was around us, […]

Donard Bikes

Back out with the camera to spend some time with Owen from Donard Bikes to capture him doing what he does best – making these legendary, hand-built bike frames. From the carbon that’s kept in the freezer, to building of the frame and hand painting them, there is an insane amount of detail, intricacy and care that goes into these. It was an honour to get to see first-hand how these are built and capture these photos.
