Ocean and Wildlife Photography

Gallery

Hi, I’m Peter

An Irish born Ocean and wildlife Photographer based on the Gold Coast, Australia.

I grew up in rural Ireland, in a town called Ballina. In my early 20’s I moved to the Maharees, a small coastal town in Kerry, on the West coast of Ireland.

This is where I fell in love with the Ocean, and this all began. I’ve had some amazing wildlife encounters on my travels, and I’m delighted to be able to showcase my work for you all to see.

My goal is to inspire people through my imagery and showcase the incredible wildlife I am lucky enough to encounter in their natural habitats.

My photography journey started on the West Coast of Ireland, in a small rural town in County Kerry, known as the Maharees.

I moved here in my early 20’s, at a point in my life when I had no real direction and it was the best decision I ever made.

This is where I fell in love with the Ocean.

I surfed every day, learned to snorkel and picked up my first action camera. It was in these moments, shooting shore-break with my GoPro on the West Coast of Ireland that I was the happiest and most present I had ever been.

This lit a fire in me, that is still burning bright today and drives me to keep putting myself in situations to capture these special moments.
