I'm an architectural and performance
photographer based in Dublin.


As a graduate of Architecture in University College Dublin, I aim to bring an eye for detail and a project based approach to my work. I focus on the process, while finding creative solutions.


I primarily work with Architects and Theatre Companies, putting collaboration to the fore. I frame and capture their vision.
In my personal work, I'm interested in the built environment, patterns & habits of societies, and the changing nature of space over time.
