PROFILE

Podge Kelly has an international reputation and has been taking photographs for over 30 years. Although well known throughout Europe he is anxious to maintain his roots in his native Dublin, and has been a member of the Tallaght Photographic Society since 1983.

As you would expect from a man of his experience, he holds several advanced photographic qualifications:
FIPF - Fellowship of the Irish Photographic Federation
EFIAP - Excellence of the Federation Internationale de L'Art Photographique
LSWPP - Licentiate of the Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers

Although primarily a wedding and portrait photographer, Podge knows the importance of training and education. As well as keeping up to speed with the modern day changes in the industry himself by attending the lectures and workshops of his peers, he also provides training to fellow professionals and keen enthusiasts alike. He judges, lectures and gives talks both home and abroad to many organisations such as the Maltese Institute of Professional Photographers and the SWPP in the UK.

Podge also has a unique brand of artistic flair that he channels into his fine art creations, and has received many awards and accolades worldwide and has exhibited in Argentina, Austria, China, Hong Kong, Italy and has represented Ireland. To date Podge has been represented in over 70 photographic salons worldwide.

Despite the success of his photography, the people, namely his clients, always come first and he prides himself on providing a personal service based on a friendly relaxed approach, delivering the results they expect....every time.
