Employment

A passionate, professional photographer with 4+ years’ commercial experience photographing products for big brand retailers, as well as a variety of freelance project experience photographing events, weddings and interiors. I am a self-driven team-player looking for new opportunities in photography and/or visual content creation - available immediately. Career Break/Travelling

3 months travelling solo around New Zealand and Australia where I undertook a range of activities including hiking, skydiving and scuba-diving, as well as exploring the sites. The trip pushed me out of my comfort zone, enabled me to meet a diverse range of people, provided plenty of awe-inspiring photographic opportunities and fulfilled an ambition I’ve had for over 10 years. Impulse Fashion Accessories Photographer & Marketing Executive A fashion accessory supplier to leading retailers such as Missguided, Pretty Little Thing, New Look and Boohoo.com. In addition to my photography duties

(see below), I created and delivered email marketing campaigns for new business and existing customers, working closely with my team to ensure targets were met in order to achieve business growth. Impulse Fashion Accessories Photographer, Retoucher & Marketing Assistant Producing all imagery for marketing, social media and multi-format catalogues, I was responsible for organising product photoshoots and photographing and retouching imagery, before uploading it to the company’s purchasing systems. Packshot Photographer

A leading photography agency providing high quality content for big brands. Working initially as a Freelance Photography Assistant, I supported a number of professional photographers, providing general on-set assistance. Then, employed as a full-time Photographer predominantly working on Packshot’s Selfridges contract, I worked with a team of stylists and retouchers to produce high quality product imagery for the international retailer. A fast- paced environment, I had to work as part of a team to meet daily targets. During my time at Packshot, I also took part in a range of ad-hoc projects such as photographing luxury brands (e.g. Stella McCartney, Saint Laurent and Michael Kors) for Brown Thomas, the high end luxury Irish department store. AE Beckett & Sons Sales Assistant

Based in a family-run farm shop, I worked as a part-time Sales Assistant whilst studying at University. Once graduated, I took on more shifts and also began working as a Freelance Photographer at Packshot, until I was taken on as a full-time employee.
