Hello, I'm George, welcome to Ireland! I live in Dingle, County Kerry, Ireland, surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean and the hills and mountains of the Dingle peninsula. Beginning with childhood holidays at my mother's home in Dingle and eventually moving here to pursue scenic photography full-time, I've spent over 30 years exploring and photographing County Kerry as well as the rest of Ireland, discovering the backroads and small lanes that meander along the hillsides, through the farmlands, past ancient churches, castles, standing stones and even farm tracks, that just end abruptly on the wild Atlantic coastline. Since 2016, I've been leading tours and teaching photography workshops for all abilities, whether you're an absolute beginner, serious amateur photographer, or just want to take beautiful shots on your phone. I carry tripods and filters in the minibus which you are welcome to use with your camera or mobile phone. For those who wish to experiment with a DSLR camera, I have a few models you can try - just request this when booking. You can improve your photography using any camera, device or phone while visiting a variety of stunning and carefully chosen locations, largely away from the hustle and bustle of the busy tourist routes. Visit parts of Ireland you'd never generally get to see, as we follow the back roads, narrow lanes and trails, discovering landscapes that will both captivate and enchant you. Over 30 years I've explored Ireland with my camera along the Atlantic coastline from Kinsale to Donegal and beyond into County Antrim in Ulster. I can use this intimate knowledge of Ireland to tailor a private day tour to your exact requirements, whether you want to improve your photography, or just sit back, relax, and enjoy the amazing scenery, from ancient castles and ecclesiastical sites to stunning beaches and cliffs or mountain passes. If you want to hike along the many marked paths or trails to explore these beautiful locations further, or even walk beside the dramatic Atlantic coastline, I can also plan drop-off and pick-up points into your tour or even put my walking boots on and explore the wonderful scenery with you. - City & Guilds of London Photography - Failte Ireland Wild Atlantic Way Champion During my tours I have no restrictions.

    Our time with George was fantastic. He was very attentive to our group of 6 as he drove us around and tailored the tour to our requests. His kindness and sense of humor made the trip very enjoyable and the photos he took of us were superb!

    While we didn't have the best weather for a photography tour, George was a great host and took us to some beautiful spots. It was nice to sit back, relax and let someone else handle the parking and narrow roads.

    We had a lovely time seeing all the beautiful sites on this gorgeous peninsula. So many breathtaking views! George knew all of the most picturesque spots and he was very accommodating in fulfilling our requests. We were very pleased with this tour and highly recommend seeing the Dingle Peninsula with George.

    We had a most enjoyable half day excursion with George. As a photographer living in Dingle for more than 25 years, he knew all the nooks and crannies from which to see and photograph breath-taking Slea Head. Whether it was giving us photography tips, sharing Dingle history or telling us about his and his wife's lives as artists in County Kerry, George was a fantastic...
