James Garaghty

James Garaghty is a leading professional studio/commercial photographer and accomplished artist based in Cape Town, South Africa. He has over 20 years of professional photography experience, mainly within the media and advertising industry and his portfolio includes work done for top retail outlets and lifestyle brands. James has been presented with a number of photographic awards for his work in wine, spirits and food photography as well as people and product photography. He has photographed a number of television and sports celebrities and also has valuable experience in corporate portrait and team photography.

James Garaghty developed a keen interest in drawing and painting from a young age and discovered he had a natural aptitude for art. He has worked with many different art mediums including poster paints, watercolours and oils.

James enjoys following the work of other artists he admires (Alfred Lambart and Russell Flint to name a few) and studying what they do and how they do it. He believes that creating art is not a choice, it’s a necessity and something he can’t stop doing; his hand just wants to paint.
