-About Graeme-

Go the extra mile, it is never crowded.

"Born and raised in Northern Ireland, my photography has been inspired by nature, wild animals and my love of the outdoors. More recently, I am driven to help protect our wildlife and wild places - driven to make images that connect viewers with nature, understand them and become inclined to take action.

I will not hold back in sharing with you my thought processes, insights and knowledge. I will act as your guide and photography coach, helping you to capture a portfolio of wildlife images that you will be proud of.”

I’m very pleased to share that I have been awarded 2nd place in the Sony World Photography Awards 2021 (Wildlife and Nature Category). It is a real honour for me to do so well in these awards as it is always an annual highlight for me to explore the award winners’ images. This year does not disappoint in that regard, looking through the images I see some breathtaking work that yet again inspires me. To be part of the collection is humbling.

Eight Feet collection

Graeme is known for his innovative and unique up close and personal style that gets him (or his camera) into the inner world of nature's most amazing wildlife.. The driver for this collection and all of Graeme's work remains his passion for wildlife conservation and protecting wild places around the world.

"I was first inspired to develop an interest in photography by my father and uncle. They both always had a camera in hand and I often performed the role of reluctant subject. As I grew up, I decided my preference was to be on the other side of the camera, pressing the shutter. For me, great images are always driven by going the extra mile. Looking at the world from a different perspective, not following the crowd. My ambition is to find fresh dimensions and new perspectives."
