Born Belfast, N.Ireland, 1973. Lives in Bath, UK.
I received my Masters in Fine Art & Visual Culture at Bath Spa University College in 1999. And my BA in Fine Art at National College of Art & Design, Dublin in 1997.
Since graduating I have worked as a photographer, probing at the social narratives inherent in the structures and transformations of urban growth around the world.
I have received a number of photography awards including Architectural Photographer of the Year at the ND awards in 2016. And most recently being selected as a finalist for the prestigious US journal Photo Review Competition, selected by Sarah Meister, Photography Curator at Museum of Modern Art, New York. I have also been included in a number of international exhibitions, most recently the LA Month of Photography in May 2018.
For my commercial architectural work I have photographed many high profile construction projects around the world. These include:
1 World Trade Centre, NY / Christies, Shanghai / The National Museum of Qatar, Doha / BBC Broadcasting House, London / BBC Media City, Manchester / Hoglands, Grade 1 listed restoration of Henry Moore's former home & etching studio / Tate, St. Ives
