Steve McCarthy a contemporary fiction author, as well as a landscape, sports & events photographer and podcaster, based in Wiltshire (often found chasing light along Cornwall's north coast). Whatever the medium, Steve is obsessed with stories-especially the small, everyday moments that change everything. In his novels, he writes warm, hopeful, heartfelt stories about time, second chances and the lives we almost lived: contemporary fiction that treats ordinary people and their emotions with care, humour and honesty.
I love exploring how a single decision-a missed train, a delayed moment, a chance encounter-can ripple through a life. That same storytelling instinct drives his photography. On the sports and events side, he shoots with energy and empathy-clean, accurate and fast. His landscape work is slower and more reflective. Drawn to places where weather, tide and terrain collide, and he aims to make images that feel like scenes from a story-prints that bring back not just how a coastline looked, but how it felt to stand there.
