Colm Kerr

Creative Director

Colm Kerr is an award-winning photographer and commercial video producer with a flair for creating engaging visual stories that build strong brands.

While Colm qualified originally as an industrial engineer, he felt his career choice lacked the creativity and artistic freedom he really desired. An avid writer and poet and member of multiple bands, his zeal for creative projects led him to photography in the mid-2000’s. After embarking on formal training in photography, he quickly discovered his innate talent for visual storytelling – and the growing commercial demand for high quality visual advertising solutions that help drive sales. He founded ARC Studios with his wife Aisling in 2010 and today is ARC Studios Creative Director, responsible for the direction and production of the agency’s commercial photography and corporate video projects.

Colm’s unique flair for architectural and fine art photography is incorporated throughout his commercial projects, with mixed technical aspects and artistic approach heightening the quality, aspect and interest of his photography and video work. He works regularly on commercial advertising projects for hospitality, corporate, fashion and lifestyle clients.

His work is highly awarded, with six bronze medals presented at the IPPVA Awards in 2020 for his architecture, fine art and commercial photography, following an award for third place in the 2019 IPVAA Awards for Best Commercial Video.

Colm holds Licentiateship (LIPF) with the Irish Photographic Federation and the Irish Professional Photographers and Videographers Association (IPPVA). He has also lent his support to the Chernobyl Children’s Project by participating in a humanitarian aid convoy to Belarus.
