Welcome to my Page!
As a photographer based in Northern Ireland, I have developed and grown a thriving passion for photography. It all began as a hobby when I was 16 and my mother purchased a Nikon D3400 camera for me to get me into a new hobby outside of school.
It took me a while to learn how to use my camera to its fullest potential, so I was mainly a ‘point and click’ photographer in my early days!
I began practicing by taking pictures of the scenery at Altnahinch forest, as well as my two dogs, Truffles and Bownie. (I also had to practice getting them to stay still for photos!)
As I got more confident, I branched out and started taking photos of birds and animals at animal sanctuaries, such as Broughshane Waterfowl Park and during my walks with the dogs.
Now I look for all sorts of places to find various wildlife. My speciality is nature photography as I am simply amazed on how diverse our ecosystem is and how much wildlife could be easily missed. I have learned to cherish and admire my time with nature and I would like to share this experience with you through my photos.
Thanks for stopping by!
