Hard to explain how long this process took, for some reason I had editors block with my showreel for over a year now but this month something just clicked and I'm so happy I can share this celebration of the artists that I am surrounded by ❤️ each and every one of you that trust me with your space, your expressions, your music, movement and messages mean so much to me and what I love to do. Moments like this spark up a wave of gratitude, on top of the gratitude I feel everyday, and it comes with many thanks, also to the people closest to me that always show me support, encouragement and pull me through any times of doubt, y'all know who you are 🙏😌❤️ go to gigs, go to events, go to shows and support the artists around us, they're all incredible and give their soul to this and I'm honoured to capture so much of it. Much love 🔥💫

EXCITED to announce that ENDLESS has been accepted into the official selection for the @sarajevofashionfilm this December. Truly incredible!
From the mind of @mosh.fire Endless, the mind-bending fashion short film.
My first time shooting a fashion film, our first film together and the first film festival Endless got submitted to.. @_.marang and @muril0costa both starring their debut fashion film. It’s safe to say we’ve got stars in the making. Directed by @frizau and @mosh.fire , featuring @jackshanahann@povvuk@by_sinead and @marmarbymar which are fully sustainable Irish brands making noise right now. Gratefulfor @kateis_ph for the BTS photos and videos from the shoot and @lilia_akhtar for the amazing makeup setting the mood for both our characters @mosh.fire thank you for writing this film, bringing this all together and allowing me to capture it. What a win for the Irish fashion scene and for all those seated watching the big screen in Sarajevo next week 👏🫵🔥
Who knew I'd be at a point where stepping into photography would lead to such an incredible stage to capture, creating alongside an abundance of Ireland's creative minds all pushing a single industry to new heights. The experience of shooting @dublin_ifw alone was electric but to be among this community and meet with so many great minds gave nothing but supportive energy and has given me great inspiration and hope towards my own creative outlet. I wish this carousel could go on forever 📸
Please @ any designers I've missed, it's so hard to keep track with so many amazing people in one room 🫶 ..and IG doesn't let you tag more than 20.
Message me with your email address for photo access of yourself or your designs.

To Hong Kong and back, it has been a journey to this point and I'm delighted to finally release the trailer for Celtic Dragon Origins, our second feature documentary with the incredibly talented TCM doctor and martial artist, Kurt Scott. I have huge admiration for anyone who can take their passion and turn it into something spectacular, Kurt sets the bar on where discipline gets you.
We made our first film back in 2023 set here in Ireland and London which dived into Kurt's profession in traditional Chinese medicine and his lifelong commitment to Dragon Style Kung Fu. This second film we spent a month in Hong Kong to touch the roots of where both practices came from and to hear the wisdom of the masters that came before him.
With the launch of this trailer, our first film is now available to stream online, link in bio, while we send Celtic Dragon Origins into festival circuits.
Massive thanks to Kurt and his wife Amy for everything they put into this creation and for the journey they took me on to capture this 🙏🐉❤️

Sharing a quick improvisation while travelling through the Dolomites with my brother @zangrandoalessandro , quite some time ago... and our fellow companion, the one and only Kristian Mantalvanos, caught this epic moment.
Thank you, brother 🙏

Six months ago, under the strawberry full moon on that beach, I met my muse. Before then, I never truly understood the word. But now that I’ve seen what a goddess of inspiration can do to a man’s heart, I know it’s so much more than fuel for art.
Every day, I’m in awe of you @_.marang , not just in our creative ventures, but in life and all its shades. Every journey we’ve taken has been exciting, every day ends in belly laughs, and everything we dream of we're fast to turn into reality. We fill each other's cups and live a life of nurture and support.
Never did I expect this year to be so ignited into becoming the best version of myself, to grow better than the man I was yesterday, and to make so much room for love in my life.
Here’s to loving loudly, and to a lifetime of growth, creativity, and happiness ❤️
I love you ❤️
