Cyclists of Dublin
Shane Connelly, who was one of the guiding lights in Exchange Dublin; recently started a project creating short video portraits of Dublin cyclists. I’ll be shooting and editing eight of these brief portraits, while Shane carries out the interviews (and handles all the thankless organising!). The idea is to humanise cyclists in the face of mounting evidence that drivers do not see us as fully human. Cyclists are often depicted as hordes of lycra clad fit young men, but this doesn’t reflect the diversity of cycling road users in the city.
We’re still actively seeking participants, particularly from underrepresented communities. More info here – http://cyclistsofdublin.com/
4 Lights – Shy Mascot
I directed / edited and co-shot this video for Dublin band Shy Mascot. Previously we’d worked together on the video ‘Pardon Me‘.
4 Lights, the new single from Dublin band Shy Mascot. All the incredible moving shots were carried out by cameraman Sean Bond on his electric skateboard. The video stars the incredibly talented young actor, Lorcan Strain, who recently guested on Game of Thrones final episode.
The video was inspired by my experiences working as a delivery cyclist on the dangerous Dublin city roads during my masters degree.

Ellie Kisyombe Campaign Video

Irish Design Awards 2018
I shot and edited this video for the Irish Design Awards from Institute Designers Ireland. The ceremony was held in the EPIC museum in Dublin this January. Was a chance to roll out some fun oscars style tracking gimbal shots!
Campaign for Martinstown House
I created a series of videos last year for Martinstown House, a beautiful 17th century strawberry gothic manor house in the Curragh. Martinstown House is owned and managed by the Booth family who run the property as a spectacular wedding venue and guest house. I spent three days shooting in the house and gardens, and created these videos interviewing the family and highlighting aspects of the business, from Weddings to fine dining.
