Hello there folks!

I'm Neil — Irish, based on the road as much as at home, and a photographer for over fifteen years now. It didn't start as a career. It started as an excuse to be outside at the hours most people are asleep, chasing light that only shows up if you're patient enough to wait for it.

For a long time that stayed a hobby wrapped around what ever job would keep me. At some point the balance tipped — I cared more about getting one photograph right than almost anything else I was doing — and I made the decision to try this properly: full-time, professional, no safety net. That decision is the reason these workshops exist at all.

I've been lucky enough to work with some incredible organisations and people along the way — Tourism Ireland, Ryanair, Booking.com, and Lonely Planet, Brendon Van Son, Thomas heaton, Greg Snell and TRVL Photography among them - but the work that matters most to me is the work I do with small groups, in places I know intimately, teaching people to see the way I do.

A tour moves people through a place. What I do is take a small group - six people, never more - somewhere EPIC, and teach you to see it the way I do: the Analog Ritual of slowing down, reading the light, and waiting for the moment instead of chasing it.

Travel is such a wonderful experience regardless of where you go, if it's down the road or to a waterfall a thousand miles away. Having the opportunity to document that, even if it's for nobody else, is a beautiful thing. I love to share the world with everyone and if we can take a few snaps along the way than even better.

Moments from the road

A few of my favourite travel memories — Cambodia, Thailand, Africa, and beyond.

From the temples of Angkor to the beaches of Cambodia and the cities of Thailand — these are the places that shaped my love for travel and photography.
