Mammy and Me session, Cavan

A few weeks ago I had the absolute pleasure of photographing this gorgeous Mama and her two handsome boys. I just have to share some of my favourites! The thing I loved so much about this session was how natural it was, there was just a tiny bit of direction but most of the photographs were capturing real moments and the geniune closeness that this trio have for each other. I think outdoor photo sessions and kids go so well together, it's a memory made, a lovely hour out wit

Rainy Day Family Session! Kingscourt, Cavan

I think we had the four seasons in the space of an hour! This family were amazing for pushing on despite the weather, and the rain definitely didn't stop those gorgeous smiles. We were lucky enough to capture some gorgeous photographs within the first 20 minutes of the photo shoot before the heavens opened and we whipped out the umbrellas! I think that the rainy weather can make for gorgeous moody photographs, it can make for stunning light when the sun peaks from behind the

Let them be little !

If you're a parent, you'll know how difficult it is to get the little ones to sit still for a certain amount of time. You'll probably stress at the thoughts of having a photographer take their portraits, worrying that they may misbehave, or get super shy, or won't smile for the camera. Truth is, a lot of kids would rather be doing something else! And let's be honest, there's a big difference between our kids fake smiles and their gorgeous natural smiles. I don't want your chi

What is Lifestyle Newborn Photography?

What is Lifestyle Newborn Photography?

There are two different types of Newborn Photography, there is the traditional posed Newborn photography, which is usually studio based and uses special posing, bean bags and all sorts of props and cute outfits. Traditional Newborn photography focuses mostly on the baby, and sometimes includes family members. This type of Newborn Photography must take place within the first two weeks of the babies life, and can take hours of careful posing to achieve the beautiful finished pr

Playing with Fairy Lights

Yesterday the sun was shining through the window creating some gorgeous warm light. Its usually dark and cloudy outside so I jumped at the chance to take some low ISO indoor shots! For these, I held some battery operated Penny's fairy lights (who doesn't have them?) and held them up to the camera lens. I kept my aperture wide open so that everything but my subject would be blurry and so it would create some beautiful bokeh. Her orange cardigan and the orange glow from the pho

Second Generation

These photos will be valued so much in years to come, photography is so important, the value of photographs is felt immediately but its true value will show as the memories fade and the subjects age. These will be looked back on and cherished for years to come. This was the street I grew up , and I’m not kidding , even though these photos took place within 2 minutes , they mean so much to me, the second generation ! Me and my brother used to play in this exact spot when we we

I officially opened my Family Photography business in May. Since then I’ve met so many wonderful people around Cavan, Meath, Monaghan and Dublin, I've witnessed so many beautiful moments , have had so much fun , gotten plenty of exercise 😂, captured laughter , love and emotion , and made some friends along the way ! I am so so grateful to everyone I have photographed ! I love photography and it’s the best feeling in the world to give photographs that people will genuinely c

Photographing my children on a rainy day

We were driving home from Baileborough, Cavan and the fog was dense and it was a miserable day! But I had my camera with me and it doesn't take long to create gorgeous photographs especially if the models and the location is just right! We parked the car and stepped out on the Baileborough mountains for literally 10 minutes where I managed to capture these of my eldest two. The youngest was fast asleep :-) Here is some moody rainy day photography of my beautiful children, unp

Stunning Outdoor Family Photography Session, Meath

The weather forecast was for rain and cloud, but what does the weather forecast know? We were blessed with the most beautiful sunny autumn day for this outdoor family photo session in Meath. We took some birthday photographs for the gorgeous baby and got some natural happy smiles with a beautiful flowery backdrop, who needs boring white backgrounds when everything you need is often in your own back garden? :-) The kids laughed and played and ran around in the sun. We got gro

Beautiful Family Session, Kingscourt, Cavan

This session just went to prove that you don't need sunshine and perfect weather to make beautiful photographs, all that matters is that you are you, and with the ones you love. I'm so happy that this family braved the freezing cold damp weather for their family session in kingscourt, cavan. We walked, we talked, the children played and we got some amazing photographs that will be cherished for years to come. Definitely a session I will remember xxx #qualifiedphotographer #au

Newborn Lifestyle Photography, Dublin

Newborn Lifestyle Photography, Dublin

I have to say this was one of my favourite sessions this year. Theres nothing more beautiful than newborn babies, their little wrinkly hands, their funny expressions, their cute yawns, cries and movements. I'm a mother of 3 and photographing newborns just brings me back there, to those first few weeks when you bring them home, the love you feel is overwhelming, everything is overwhelming! And the time just flies by so quick and before you know it they're running around, wreck

What to wear for your photo session? Family photography Meath , Cavan and Dublin

I'm more of a lifestyle photographer, I love natural photography and I want to capture the real you. I want you to be comfortable and to be yourself, so stressing about clothes should be the least of your worries. To put it briefly, you can wear whatever you want, whatever you normally wear, or whatever you would like to be photographed in. My photography sessions tend to be active and outdoors, so the clothes you wear should be comfortable . This being said there a few cloth

5 min spooky Halloween photo session, Meath :-)

We spent the morning pumpkin carving, it was a horribly dull day outside- perfect for Halloween themed photographs! I grabbed the nephew, and the sister in law and took a quick detour on the way to the shop. We found an overgrown field by the side of the road, and jumped out to get some lovely halloween type photographs. This wee photography session was over in 5 mins. Short and sweet. I also grabbed a couple of sweet photographs including Mammy. Mothers spend waaaay too much

Those Autumn Vibes, family photosession, Monaghan

I loooove this time of year for photographs. The colours that nature provides for outdoor photography are so stunning. The children love to jump up and down in the crunchy leaves, or pop on their wellies and wrap up warm. My favourite thing about Autumn is the early setting sun. The sun begins to set earlier in the day, so on those sunny Autumn days if we have an afternoon session, gorgeous lighting is a definite.Earlier sunsets are great because the kids aren't so sleepy eit

Photographing at the Farm, Cavan

I bring my camera with me everywhere, my family are probably sick of it at this stage, but they realise how worth it it is when they see the photographs printed and we get to look back on them. I think the moment I became a mother was probably when my passion for photography really grew and I knew its importance, how important it is to document all those little moments, those beautiful moments that pass in the blink of an eye. This was one of those days, my toddler was having

Golden Summer Light, Mullagh Hill, Cavan

About a month ago when we had our heat wave, I bribed my son (thats usually what it takes lol) to let me take photographs of him and make the most of the rare and beautiful sunlight we were having. The minute the other half came home from work we escaped in the car and left him with the other two babas :-) It was so much fun. Its rare these days that we get some mother and son time, because usually his two baby sisters take most of my attention, to it was a great opportunity

Newborn Lifestyle and Family Photography! Meath

For newborn sessions I don't do the posed type of newborn photography, I do lifestyle photography: almost documentary style, its very relaxed, stress free and there's no posing really involved. I take photographs of you interacting with your new little beauty, holding their little hands, kissing their little head and I just photograph those precious moments between you and your little one. I photograph all those fine little details like their little hands, chubby cheeks and

Beauties in Saint Ann's Park , Family photo session , Dublin

Over a month ago I photographed this beautiful trio in Saint Anns Park, Dublin. The location could have been anywhere though, because all that is really required for a family portrait session is some of natures beautiful backdrops. Its not always necessary to travel to a wild and stunning location (although this is awesome!), sometimes even a corner of a garden, an empty spot on the beach, a tiny field beside the road, anywhere with a bit of greenery, flowers, texture or colo

Getting Creative!, portrait session , Cavan

Photography is an art, a beautiful art! I love nothing more than to get a bit creative on photoshoots and when the opportunity presents itself there's nothing better. Photographs that capture natural smiles, natural laughs, emotions and gestures are what I aim for. That's not to say that a big part of me absolutely loves moody photography. Poetic and serious, this type of photography never fails to stir emotion. I love it! I had a gorgeous family session a while ago, the you
