Current Project Update

Went out this evening and got two more portraits for my project (which is detailed in a previous post just below). Decided to put them up now as I'm really happy with them. Along with a house that is right near myself. A nice little house except that all the windows and doors are bricked up.

Current Project

A current project I'm working on is a series of portraits and landscapes taken in and around the area where I live. My focus is on young men in the 20 to 30 year age range. With the current economic problems in Ireland, and NAMA especially, this generation will surely be paying for others mistakes for years to come. I will be presenting this as my final project for college and will be printing the full series on Harman Matt FB Mp Warmtone paper at the recommendation of fine art printer David Monahan

Jane McGrath

My first proper post with some pics of super talented irish actress Jane McGrath. Taken today in Dun Laoghaire, I've decided taking pictures of actors is great because they don't seem to need any direction, they just do it. Great fun. Just a quick addition, these were shot with both a 70-200mm Canon L Series and a Canon 50mm f/1.8.
Normally I use the 50mm for music, live music and never for portraits really because it can be quite hard getting eyes sharp at f/1.8 and such but from now on I'll defo be using it more for this type of work.
