I have been a photographer for approx 28 years when I joined a local newspaper as its only staff photographer. this proved to be a great training ground and is probably one of the reasons why I feel at ease shooting a in wide range of genres. Today I mainly photograph Weddings, Portraits and Travel . I was awarded a Fellowship from the Irish Professional Photographers Association and the Master Photographers Association (U.K.) and more recently I received the Q.E.P. Award from the Federation of European Photographers. To me being a photographer is more than a way of making a living it's a way of life
