Bio

Brendan McCarthy is a multi-award winning photographer with over 30 years experience in news and magazine publishing. In addition to his 20 years on the daily newsbeat for a country newspaper, his work has also appeared in Lonely Planet Guidebooks, Slow Magazine, Global Institute for Tomorrow publications, The Australian Financial Review, The Age, Asian Geographic, National Geographic Online and National Geographic textbooks. Beyond his hands-on work he has also taught and mentored photography in both formal and informal teaching settings. His passion for photography is based on its story-telling potential and his favourite quote about “the art” is by photojournalist Eddie Adams: “If it makes laugh, if it makes you cry, if it rips out your heart, that’s a GOOD picture”. Brendan now works as a freelance photographer and is based in central Victoria, Australia
