About me
Photographer currently affiliated with District Magazine where I manage photography for various publications as well as performing creative direction on co-branded and white-label campaigns under the Studio District umbrella. I supplement my work with District with freelance editorial and commercial commissions. Three years ago, I co-founded Junior, a print publication and art organisation supporting emerging Irish photography. We are currently working on Issue 04 which will be dropping this autumn. I completed an undergraduate in History and Political Science in Trinity College as well as recently completing my MFA in Photography studying under Donovan Wylie, Ken Grant, and Haley Morris-Cafiero. I balance my commercial and editorial output with a personal fine-art practice. My latest project, "We Became Everything", has been exhibited in the Museum of Contemporary Photography of Ireland and was recently selected to be part of the FUTURES program at the Unseen Festival of Photography in Amsterdam.
