Ray Kearney Photography

I have been in love with photography all my life and when my daughter was born my passion took off. As I became more interested, being a man, I obviously needed more equipment to make me a ‘better photographer'. How wrong could I be. Having the best canvas and paint brushes does not make me an artist. I soon realised there are only two things that matter in photography; the eye and the finger. If you can't ‘see' the image or know when to press the shutter you won't get the shot.

My style is based on the fact that I have never come across anyone who hates having their photograph taken more than me. But believe it or not this attitude helped shape my approach to photographing people. I want to photograph them when they are relaxed and I can't do that if I constantly pose them and stick a lens in their faces. I want to photograph who you are not what you look like.
