About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To go to as many different football grounds around Europe as possible.

ABOUT ME

I'm English, but moved over to Ireland to be with my now Ex-girlfriend. I started my photography business on 1st February 2013 and am spending most of my time drumming up business.

Have a good time - all the time!
