Overview:
I’ve had an interest in photography ever since I could borrow my Dad’s camera and head off taking
pictures. My photography has evolved through being a member of Ireland’s leading club and to this
day I can say that I still enjoy my photography.
On a National level I have served as National Distinctions Secretary, Print & Projected Image CoOrdinator and currently serve on council with The Irish Photographic Federation.
On a club level I have served as Secretary and Chairman – both positions I considered as an honour
to serve in.
I’ve my own personal website at www.creatingapicture.com and
