What We Did

Accompanied by photographer Luke Gartside and videographer Maddie Meddings, I headed to Ireland to shoot still images and video content for our good friends at Finisterre, a Cornish lifestyle brand. Together in two vans we drove in convoy from the North West of Ireland all the way to the Dingle Peninsula, chasing swell and stopping to explore the stunning landscape of the Emerald Isle.

As I have worked closely with Luke and Maddie before, the friendly vibe and intimate experience was easily translated in images and film. We shot in-water whilst surfing the small waves on offer and on hikes to waterfalls and beautiful historical sites. I put the Autumn 2022 outerwear range through its paces on dry land, and we created social reels and lifestyle images for Finisterre’s Yulex wetsuits collection. The west coast of Ireland provided a spectacular backdrop and Finisterre were very happy with the content we captured.
