Hi! I’m Shane, a wildlife and nature photographer based in Ireland. I love capturing the raw beauty of the natural world, whether it’s a quiet forest, a dramatic coastline, or the wildlife that calls these places home.

I started to take photos in early 2024 at the age of 17. In my opinion, cheap gear is more than capable of taking wildlife photos. I started with a Canon EOS 600D and a Canon 55-250mm f/4-5.6. It's not ideal, but it gets the job done. I've now upgraded to a Sigma 150-600 Contemporary, paired with the Canon 7D Mark II, and it has significantly improved my photography.

Feel free to browse through the photos. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed taking them.
