Bio
l grew up on a small dairy farm in County Cavan, Ireland. Farm work, angling, and nature watching filled the days and nights of my formative years. An initial career in agriculture furthered my interest in the cycles and complexities of the natural world. After 12 years as a small scale dairy farmer, i planted 50,000 native deciduous trees of 16 different species on the farm, added over 30 bird and mammal boxes and excavated a large wildlife pond for the purposes of turning my vocation for wildlife photography into a small enterprise. The majority of my images have been made on this wildlife haven.
I've spent over 30 years researching and experimenting with photography, self taught behind the camera, in darkroom film developing and printing, and most importantly, in field craft. Intensive research and planning are crucial for each species i photograph. I use Medium Format film cameras and 35mm film/digital cameras.
Mostly, i concentrate on stock image sales and print/canvas sales to progress as a picture archive micro-business.
The following are some of the specialist photographic techniques i use to make pictures:
