I was delighted to hear that my photograph from the short film The Light WithIn: An Irish Quaker Story was chosen as a Finalist for “Best Cinematic Image” by Waterford International Film Festival.

The photograph is an official production still I captured on the set of The Light WithIn. It features starring Actress Finnuala Gillen as “Lydia Cantor.”

The organisers kindly bestowed upon it the official Best Cinematic Image Finalist 2023 Laurels and have included it among a diverse selection with 20 other images that share the honour. You can view all of the chosen finalists at Waterford International Film Festival’s Photography Finalists 2023 page.

All winners of the 17th Waterford International Film Festival will be announced at the official Awards Ceremony taking place in the House of Waterford Crystal on Sunday the 26th of November, 2023.

The Festival itself kicks off online on Filmocracy on the 20th of November, 2023. Visit https://festival.filmocracy.com/WIFF between 20th-26th November 2023 for a fantastic lineup of Irish national & international films screened just for you in the comfort of your own home!

Or, better yet, head to Waterford for the in-person screenings taking place in the House of Waterford Crustal on Friday the 24th and Saturday the 25th of November, 2023.

My sincere thanks to Stephen Byrne and Waterford International Film Festival. Best of luck to all the finalists!
