"People are the most photographed subjects in the world because pictures of people tug at our hearts and they are, in many ways, pictures of ourselves." - Bryan Peterson

About

Specialising in documentary, photojournalism and candid photography, Michael Maguire has a passion for capturing and documenting life. Describing himself primarily as a 'People Photographer' he is drawn to beauty and fashion. Michael's eye is attracted to beauty in all its forms, whether it is a beautiful sunset, architecture, an old car, beautiful and interesting people etc. He also enjoys travel photography, and portraiture. A passionate Street and Social Documentary Photographer, Michael loves to capture those candid moments that document life around him and helps capture the soul of the places he visits in his international travels. He also loves spending time with people crafting the perfect portrait for them.

This site displays, among others, candid pictures in a public setting. Public photography - in places with no expectation of privacy - is legal in the countries where these photos have been taken. If you are looking for pictures with explicit nudity, pornography, voyeuristic, or children pictures, THIS IS NOT YOUR SITE. This site is intended for those who appreciate beauty, nature, art, architecture, and beautiful and interesting people. There is nothing offensive in the content of this site.

If you are in any of my images and would prefer not to be part of this portfolio, please contact me and I will endeavour to remove it. Please accept my apologies if you are in any way offended, as that was never my intention. My photography is purely based on artistic integrity and artistic expression through candid street photography and portraiture.

Groups

I am happy to add invited photos to public groups and groups which I have been invited to join. If I have to ask to join a group, your invite will be declined. Similarly, I will not add photos to groups containing images of nudity (even partial) or groups with derogatory titles. Most of my models and subjects would not appreciate having their images appear within such groups so I will respect those wishes.

Comments

Thank you to everyone who is kind enough to leave comments on my photos. I appreciate it! Please do not leave crude sexual comments on any of my photos. The people you see in my photos are real people and I won't tolerate any visitors being disrespectful towards any of them. Leave a crude sexual comment and you'll be blocked!
