What's The Craic?

Who is this Irish artist who lives in Yorkshire?

Being a daughter of an Irish artist and Granddaughter of a photographer its in my bones to be artistic. 

​

You couldn't walk into my house growing up without falling over a painting or canvas so it's no surprise I took this direction within my own career. 

​

I moved to England in 2005 to study Fashion and after 10 years working in the fashion industry moved onto the other side of the camera. 

​

I never put my camera down, even when not working if I see nice light I have to run to it , which usually means paying my kids a couple of quid to model for me! (They are business savvy it would seem!)

​

My happy place? North coast of N.Ireland.  It has the most perfect backdrops for images, amazing light and amazing people. 

​

My home? Leeds, I married a Yorkshire man and very much love Yorkshire life which is similar to the beauty of Ireland. 

​

Where to I work? When I am not in my studio I am all over the world for weddings and fashion shoots , Italy is a favourite of mine, Paris, Mallorca and New York are all on my shooting list for 2024.
