Live Music Photographer

Hey there, thanks for stopping bye!

When I started out in the music photography business nearly 8 years ago I had no idea where it would take me and to be honest back then I didn't really care as I was getting to photograph bands on a real stage!! not just a pub or a club but in a real concert venue with lights and production.. and to this very day I still absolutely love the feeling I get right before the band walk onto the stage! But over the years I've learned how and when to take a photograph and not just be trigger happy, it's also about how I conduct myself as a professional as I am there to document a Live event sometimes from the stage and the band are the main focus for the fans and I am very mindful of that fact.

To date I have shot for all the big names in the music industry including MCD Productions and MNPR Magazine & Independent news and media.

My work mainly involves shooting for Bands/Artists, Venues, Promotion companies & Press/Magazine media

As a Dublin based photographer the venues I mainly shoot in are in the city but I can travel the length and breath of the country.

You will no doubt catch me in my regular haunts such as Dublins iconic Olympia Theatre, 3Arena (The Point), The Academy & Whelans.

I have shot several festivals including Electric Picnic, Forever Young Festival and outdoor concerts at Malahide Castle & Saint Anns Park.

If you feel I would be a good fit for your event get in touch today.
