Equal Fashion Magazine Vol 4-2016 |
Kerry is a must for me . I seen a picture of it before that a friend of mine took who is a lorry driver from Manchester . When Charlie showed me the picture I looked at for ages it was stunning so that is a must also , the rest I ? m going to play by ear as they say , and I think also as I am going along hopefully the readers of Equal mag will suggest some neat places to go somewhere off the beaten track a bit , and help me on my way which I am sure they will .
Q10 . What do you love taking photographs of the most ?
A10 . I think the diversity it ? s giving me at the moment as I try and find a certain area of photography that maybe I will stick with i . e . landscape , wedding , fashion , portraits etc although I am mostly known locally for landscape and seascape I could settle on something entirely different so in a way still trying to find myself that way but loving the learning of all the aspects of photography it gives me a buzz that is hard to describe . I remember the first time doing a holy communion and handing the images over and the wee girls mother started to cry because she was so happy

with what we got that day and sent me a lovely card in the post afterwards and I have got quite a few cards now at the moment and they really do cheer you up if your not having the best of a day and great to look back on . It ? s such a good feeling to get a reaction like that from someone its a great lift . But as much as I love the landscape I also like people on a shoot , getting to know someone on a new level , a more intimate level . I have been on a shoot recently and had the customer completely open up to me about all sorts of things that was going on in her life , and that helps me to know that someone can feel that comfortable around me . They say don ? t work with kids and animals but I love working with both and I think people who say that don ? t have bills to pay !! I do !! Ha ha .
Q11 . We wish you a very safe and happy fulfilling journey out there on the road . Maybe you will capture an old character in the village of Cong in County Mayo where the movie the Quiet Man was shot with John Wayne and Maureen O ? Hara , maybe you ? ll catch a salmon rising the leap as the fishing season draws closer , maybe you ? ll find a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow or

catch the morning dew drops on the spiders webs in a random field , who knows , but we wish you all the best and with one last question . Who or what is your biggest inspiration ?
A11 . My biggest inspiration is my family they have being so much support to me this past 2 years could not have done it without them my mother and father in particular . I have a great relationship with them today getting sober was not easy but it would have been a dam lot harder without them by my side I can tell you that , and my very good friend Terry if not for him and my father we would not be having this conversation . Lastly before I head off I want to say a big thanks to Shelley Rodgers and Kieran Sherry for this amazing idea and opportunity with Equal Mag I hope to see you all soon and don ? t forget to let me know if there is anywhere you think I should visit and if you bump into me on the way please feel free to come over and chat for a while don ? t be stranger . So starting off in Co . Down and I will let you all know in the next issue where I will be going from there . Thanks again hope to see some of you out on my travels .
