Who I Am & Where I Live

  • Name: Cathal McNaughton
  • City: Cushendall, Co. Antrim
  • Country: Ireland

My Life & Work

  • Bio: Cathal McNaughton is a multi-award-winning photojournalist currently based in Ireland. After winning the Pulitzer Prize in 2018 for his coverage of the Rohingya refugee crisis in Myanmar and Bangladesh, Cathal relocated back to Ireland where he is continuing his work documenting people and places.

    Previously Cathal was chief photographer for Reuters in India and has travelled extensively in Asia covering news stories of world importance. He also worked for Reuters in Europe, the Press Association and The Daily Telegraph - and his work regularly features in leading publications across the globe.

    Cathal’s photography has won him major accolades including POYI, U.K Press Photographer of the Year, Royal Photographer of the Year and Environmental Photographer of the Year. His work capturing the struggle of the exiled Rohingya Muslims saw him awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Photography in New York in 2018.

    Cathal leads master classes, workshops and conferences in universities and he travels worldwide talking about the role of the media in divided societies and the importance of factual journalism in the world of social media.

    Born during the height of ‘The Troubles,’ Cathal was inspired to become a photographer after meeting photojournalists from across the world who were working in Ireland during the the civil unrest. As the youngest child with two bossy older sisters, Cathal describes himself as a tolerant person who to this day is a fan of a knitted jumper. He does not trust horses!

My Instruction

  • Lessons/Workshops: STREET/REPORTAGE ONE DAY COURSE
    This is a practical hands-on street photography workshop for all levels of ability. There will be plenty of time for one-on-one tuition as well as shooting time throughout the day. Whether you are a complete novice and shoot pictures using your smart phone, or if you have the latest DSLR, the principals are the same and I can help you make the most of your photography. Regardless of equipment or experience it is my job to get the best from you and help you take pictures you will be proud of.

    I love taking these workshops because they are fun. I held my first course over 10 years ago and in that time I’ve realised that when you are having fun you relax and your confidence grows. This enables you to lose your fears and shoot without hesitation. No more ‘what if’ moments. I’ll be there to guide you and help you capture your decisive moment.

    We will concentrate on building pictures and stories using the principles of light, composition, layers and moment. We will work through a series of challenges that will help you understand your camera more and help you beat the fear of shooting on the street.

    It’s a great opportunity to meet other street photographers and to share your passion in photography - and you can keep in touch after the workshop. You should come away with a sense of empowerment, having learned new techniques and taken some pictures you are proud of.

    WORKSHOP DETAILS – SINGLE DAY SHOOTS
    The single-day options runs from 10 am until around 4pm depending on light and location. We start by meeting for coffee and having a quick chat about what we hope to achieve and what to look out for. There will be a short break around lunchtime (I recommend bringing a packed lunch as you might want to keep on working through your break) and then we finish with a debrief in a bar or coffee shop for more inspiration, chat and usually a bit of craic.

    These street photography workshops are limited to six participants and cost £200 Per Person.
