Based in Derry, Nora creates one-off pieces, small collections, and commissioned work using traditional skills and techniques.

Discover Photographer Adam Rory Porter Photography
We're thrilled to introduce Adam Rory Porter, whose stunning landscape and astro photography is now available on IrishHands.com.
Based in Buncrana, Inishowen, County Donegal, Adam captures the breathtaking beauty of our beloved peninsula through his lens. From dramatic land and seascapes to the ethereal glow of the Northern Lights dancing across our night skies, his work reveals the raw emotion and untamed beauty of this remarkable place.
With a lifelong passion for the creative artsโ€”from early days in the Texaco School Art competition to studies in Art, Design, Photography, and Animation, Adam rediscovered his love for photography through the roles that matter most: husband and father. Now, he dedicates himself to immortalising Inishowen's ever-changing light, ancient landmarks like the majestic ringfort An Grianรกn of Aileach, and the wild Atlantic that shapes our dramatic coastlines.
Each photograph tells a story of heritage, natural wonder, and the timeless allure of Donegal.

Sometimes, a piece of art just speaks to your soul, doesn't it? It holds a story, a memory, or a feeling that resonates deeply within.

What feelings does art evoke for you, and how does it connect you to places you hold dear? You can explore Mary Crowley's beautiful collection and find a piece that speaks to you.
