Each
photograph in my portfolio may as well be perceived as a single study.
Each is beholding similar characteristics as a reflection of a
daydreaming person. One who is very much fascinated by nature, often in
an unreal or surreal manner. In this sense, I see my style of
photography somewhere between Pictorialism and Impressionism. I try to
collide and mimic all the qualities of these aesthetic movements.
I was an admirer of photography long before I went through studies in art and photography at the National College of Art and Design in Dublin, Ireland. I am oriented towards fine art photography. I pride myself in my ability to use good old’ analog cameras and know-how of developing and processing films. I shoot with way heavy but beautiful, large and medium format cameras. My method involves a lot of experimenting with these tools. I modify or interchange parts from different cameras and build accessories that help me to create those dreamy scapes, organically, on the spot.
