Extended Family Photo shoot , Kingscourt , Cavan

I had a wonderful time with this family ! We walked around the park, chatted, laughed and enjoyed the scenery . The camera was there of course , but it wasn’t a ‘big scary’ photo shoot . Lifestyle photography is so relaxed and informal , you can be completely yourself - there’s no ‘stand still , strike a pose and look at the camera’ . It’s all about genuine human interaction and connection, real moments and genuine smiles (or tantrums 😂) . In order to do this you gotta trust your photographer , you gotta see each other as people and connect as people :)

I enjoy meeting literally every family I work with - I love the walks , the chats and seeing how different and unique each family is . I love it! It’s so so important to me that people look back on their photographs and not see forced smiles and stiffness - but that they actually see who they were at that moment in time ! - That they remember the sweet moments of their relationships , the joy and little mannerisms of their children, the fun, the laughter, (the chaos!) and the FEELING of that moment of their lives xxx

Capturing candid family moments? A #Black Screen is a simple pre-shoot tool to fine-tune lighting before the relaxed chaos begins. It helps ensure natural skin tones and soft shadows—perfect for outdoor lifestyle sessions where authenticity, emotion, and connection matter more than poses. Let the scene unfold, beautifully lit.
