Hi, I'm John and totally in love what what I do for a living......it wasn't always like that however!
I
have my daughter Lauren to thank for my passion for
photography.....she's now twenty two years old but when she was born I
purchased a digital camera and started taking loads of photos of
her....and the bug simply grew from there. We have three kids now so
they were guinea pigs for a lot of my imagery when I started out.
In
2009, after shooting a few weddings for friends and family, I made the
switch to being a Full Time Photographer and started paying my taxes
from same....and consider myself very lucky. There are very few jobs
that allow you a front row seat at such an exciting "Life Event" as
wedding photography and I feel blessed each day I work at one.
The
other thing I'm feel exceptionally lucky about is the wife that I have
and the three children that we're blessed with....life's greatest gift
in my opinion!
On the Photography side of matters I joined the Irish
Professional Photographers Association in 2011 and have been very lucky
to win a number of awards with them.....including "An Award of
Excellence" in 2015......really enjoyed learning new tricks every year
from this wonderful organization.
- Multiple Awards for my wedding photography including "Award of Excellence" from the Irish Professional Photographers Association
- Multiple awards for my Portrait photography
