- HE DARED TO LIVE THE LIFE HE ALWAYS WANTED -

An Early Achiever


Padraic showed his creative side the moment he was born. From the age of 8 he drew and painted incredible artwork.

He swap the brush and easel for the camera
and tripod when he hit his teenage years.

Travel Buddies


Padraic’s favourite subject was his best buddy,

his yellow lab “Steve”.

Together they created stunning selfies during their travels around Europe before Steve sadly passed away in 2018.

A Hardworking Globetrotter


With a lot of dedication, discipline and effort Padraic became a professional travel photographer.

This occupation allowed him to visit and capture 112 countries around the globe.

A job many people would only dream of doing and he made it his reality.

Don’t think of me as gone away

my journey’s just begun,

life holds so many facets

this earth is only one.

Just think of me as resting

from the sorrows and the tears

in a place of warmth and comfort

where there are no days and years.

Think how I must be wishing

that you could know today

how nothing but your sadness

can really go away.

And think of me as living

in the hearts of those I touched…

for nothing loved is ever lost

and I was loved so much.

LIFE HE LIVED -
