I’m a storyteller with a camera. Capturing real life, one honest frame at a time.

Born in Ireland, now rooted in the U.S., I’ve spent over 15 years photographing everything from quiet portraits to full-day stories. My style is shaped by heritage, faith, and a love for the details most people miss.

Photography runs in my blood. My great-grandfather’s camera caught the Titanic leaving Ireland. That legacy still drives me to create images that mean something, that last.

If you’ve got a story to tell, I’d be honored to help you tell it.

  • The Princess

    Beneath the sun’s warm golden beams, A princess wanders lost in dreams. Her gown flows soft through flowers wild, A regal heart, yet nature’s child.

  • Irish Eyes

    In emerald eyes, the ocean sways, An Irish boy dreams of far-off days. The waves hold stories, bold and grand, Of journeys made to a promised land.

  • Cherry Springs

    A pathway winds through crimson flame, Where cherry trees burn autumn’s name. Each step whispers a fleeting song, Of seasons past and days so long.

  • Expecting Dreams

    Beneath the sky’s soft pastel glow, An expectant mother walks below. The waves hum lullabies, calm and deep, Cradling dreams she’s yet to keep.

  • Subtle Light

    The light caresses, warm and true, Tracing contours, soft and new. A back turned still, its story told, In hues of amber, light and gold.

  • The Voyage

    Weathered hands and eyes of steel, The seasoned sailor rides the keel. Each line etched deep by storms and spray, A map of oceans, night and day.

  • Dreaming of Fall

    Dreaming of fall, where colors ignite, Crimson and gold in soft twilight. A whisper of leaves in the cool, crisp air, A fleeting season, beyond compare.

  • Mountains Cold

    From the mountain pass, it roars to life, A snowstorm cuts the air like a knife. Whirls of white in a wild ballet, As the peaks give winter its fierce display.

  • Hope in the Shadows

    Her hands clasp tight, her Bible near, A quiet prayer through pain and fear. The world around her fades away, As hope takes root where shadows stay.

  • The Elder

    His eyes, deep wells of joy and strife, Hold stories of a village’s life. Through trials faced and dreams held near, They shine with wisdom, calm and clear.

  • StandingRock

    He walks with steps both firm and free, A bridge between what was and will be. Through ancient ways, his spirit flows, In him, the voice of a people grows.

  • Timeless Strength

    Through winter’s veil of silent white, The bison moves, a steadfast sight. Its breath, a cloud in the frozen air, A timeless strength, both wild and rare.

  • The Graduate

    The melody of his future seems to play through the image, a tribute to both his academic and artistic journey.

  • The Fiddler

    In black and white, the notes take flight, A world of sound in shadowed light. Each chord, each pause, a story sings, Of heart and soul, and trembling strings.

  • Lady in Red

    A lady in red, a bold, bright flame, Against winter’s hush, she stakes her claim. The snow bends soft to her vibrant hue, A striking contrast, fierce and true.

  • Strength

    Amidst the clang of weights and sweat, She builds a haven some haven’t met. With strength and grace, she paves the way, A lady of power, bold as day.
