Hi! I’m Ailish O’Leary Austin and I’m a Manchester-based music photographer!

I originate from the USA but I moved to the UK to pursue my passion for music photography, graduating with a BA(Hons) in Photography from Manchester Metropolitan University this past July. While at university, I served as the first ever Head of Music Photography for the award-winning student publication The Mancunion, and received Highly Commended for Best Student Photographer at the national 2024 Student Publication Awards for my work in the role!

My photos have also been featured on publications such as Clash Magazine, The Line of Best Fit, and Manchester Evening News.

I work with publications, promoters, and artists directly. Reach out to me via email at ailishpix@gmail.com, or via the form below!
