I am a London based photographer and film maker with a background in the fashion industry, working with avant-garde designers, editorial clients, and commercial clients.
Additionally, I have developed a series of conceptual documentary portfolios in which I explores moods of mystery, beauty and the metaphysical. I am interested in the transformational and metaphorical power of photography, and in particular, I seek to create sequences of layered works which demand measured contemplation in a world of fast moving imagery. My motifs are slowness, counterpoint and associative thinking.
I am a member of the Association of Photographers https://www.the-aop.org/find/photographers/profile/1881/aidan-mccarthy
