Documentary Event Photography

As well as documenting weddings I've enjoyed documenting a wide range of events over the past few years - among them numerous Echo Echo Dance Theatre Company events such as their Contact Improvisation Festival, Secondline NI's Performance at Derry Jazz Festival, Foyle School of Speech & Drama's Christmas Show & participation in the West End Production of Evita at the Millennium Forum, Derry, Sai Pak Chinese Community Association's New Year Celebration at Waterside Theatre, & The Learning to Fly Wedding Photographer's Retreat in Inishowen.

In 2023 I worked as the Unit Still Photographer for BBC Glasgow on the production of a CBBC TV show (photos to follow once the series have been screened.)

No matter the occasion I love capturing the emotions of those involved in a discrete and unobtrusive manner.

The photos are gold, they are so vivid, so rich in memory and feeling.

You captured the magic of the night... the innocence of the children.
The natural sincerity of each photograph makes each one an experience to look at….. it is as if they are speaking... I have never seen or experienced photographs like them.

They are perfect….thank you so much.
