Not Your Average Joe*

*While there is no known scientific metric for Joe's, I can say - with a loose amount of certainty - that unlike the average Joe, I can produce high quality photo's and cinematic videos across multiple genres, carefully edited and meticulously colour graded to achieve any commercial, creative or storytelling goals.

VIDEO PROJECT SPOTLIGHT

"Are ya doing a bitta videoin'?"

Below are some select video projects that showcase a small, but broad example of my video works to date, across a wide variety of categories including, wedding videos, product videos, documentary and narrative work and much more.

Wedding Video Highlights

Capturing their special day from start to finish, a fly on the wall style approach was taken with this project. Allowing the bride and groom to enjoy their day and for their wedding video to document all aspects of their wedding in a wholesome, natural and honest manner.

PHOTOGRAPHY PORTFOLIO

Smile!

Below is a small collection of my photography works. It contains a mix of mock up product photos and graphics, animals and wildlife based imagery, as well as some more creative images that I have curated from passion projects and visually interesting subjects.
 

DRONE WORK

Eye in the sky!

As of 2025, I am officially a licensed and commercially insured remote pilot. This has opened up a whole new range of creative opportunities for me to incorporate aerial content into both my photo and video work.
Drone piloting has allowed me to enhance the cinematic quality of my projects across the board, allowing for a more dynamic approach to the stories I tell and projects I undertake.

I'm excited to see more of the world from the unique angles that only an airborne perspective can provide.

Fully licensed and insured drone operator. All flights conducted in accordance with Irish Aviation Authority regulations.

PRODUCTION DESIGN

Think it, Make it, Shoot it!

While my primary focus is to have a camera in my hands as much as possible, I do also enjoy and have extensive experience with production design and prop making. I have always enjoyed sketching, building and designing things and upon entering college found myself honing that passion even further. Below are some examples of my model making, 3D asset design and concept works and a link to my original production design portfolio.
