My name is Lisa Connolly and I am a photographer specialising in both documentary and commercial photography for this portfolio. My commercial work has been featured in many well-known publications such as Irish Fashion, Glamour, VICE, Totally Dublin and Marie Claire. I also exhibited my work at the CHQ in Dublin, June 2019. My documentary work primarily focuses on the rural Ireland, as I myself am from a small town in the west of Ireland. My photography represents the society in which I live, and that which surrounds me. Capturing people within their environment is a strong theme in my documentary works.
