Biography

Johnny lectures photography to third year students on the BA Photography & BA Fashion Design programmes at Griffith College.

A professional freelance photographer for over ten years, he has worked on projects for advertising, fashion and editorial clients, giving him an impressive portfolio bursting with industry experience. His work often appears in magazines and billboards throughout Ireland and Europe.

His first photobook ‘Fallout’ was published in 2014 by The Velvet Cell (Osaka/London).

On his approach to teaching, Johnny says;

"I enjoy bringing first-hand industry knowledge and experience to the learning environment and allowing students to experiment and develop their own voice and style within commercial and fashion photography".
