About Patrick

Real-Life People Photography...

I provide a relaxed yet professional photography experience throughout Derry, Donegal, and Ireland (North & South), serving brides and grooms, families, businesses and creatives, making their experience simple and stress-free.

My photographic approach is all about authenticity - I'm drawn to photography of people being themselves, rather than than photos of people posing to have their photo taken!! My candid, unobtrusive, people photography allows scenes to unfold as naturally as possible, giving me the opportunity to capture genuine real-life moments with minimal interference. I strongly believe this is the best way to capture people being their true selves, especially those of us for whom being 'centre of attention' isn't our natural state.

My intention is always to be as unassuming and unobtrusive as possible, simply blending in with what's going on while documenting the important moments as they naturally unfold; this allows me to capture the essence of your day without disrupting the flow or atmosphere.

One of my favourite bits of feedback comes from one of my very first weddings when Donegal Mammy Josie described me as 'a lovely person to have in my house.' - a massive compliment from someone who wasn't keen on the idea of photographer getting under her feet on a wedding morning...
