About David Mullin

David Mullin began his photography journey in 1999, using the medium as a creative outlet for sixteen years. In 2015, as his mother began showing signs of dementia, David found himself grappling with his own anxiety and panic attacks. His sleepless nights and racing thoughts were tied to the emotional strain of his mother's condition. While there was no quick fix, meditation, exercise, and ultimately photography provided him with the peace he desperately sought.

Before this shift, David followed popular trends, capturing sunrises, sunsets, and expansive landscapes. But as his personal life became more turbulent, he found solace in photographing what resonated most with him. Instead of chasing others’ visions, he focused on capturing grace—an elusive quality he believes is as powerful as love itself. In the chaos of life, he sought to slow down, offering a quieter, more reflective view of the world.

David’s photography now spans both urban street scenes and nature, blending the raw energy of the city with the peaceful stillness of landscapes. His work continues to evolve as he explores the balance between the frenetic and the serene, always striving to capture the moments that matter most.
