The artist
Born in Ireland in 1972 Dublin, Gavin is award-winning landscape & nature photographer who is self taught.
The first experience with photography was a group school outing organised by a secondary maths teacher, taking along his father's film camera.
Many years later when living in Montpelier, he used one of the first digital cameras for documenting his travels. It wasn't until settling with his family in Austria after living in Italy and France for a few years previousily, at this point later he came more serious about using the camera. Living in the Alps with a passion for hiking and mountain biking, photography became a natural extension for seeing nature in more detail.
He enjoys the works of Wynn Bullock, Sebastião Salgado and many others.
