My passion for photography goes back many years and my obsession with photographs goes back even further. From a very early age I loved trawling through the old USA biscuit tins full of family photos. I never got bored of them. I would always see something new in the picture. Every time I looked at them, I may have learned something new about the person in the photo, or just by getting older myself and understanding the different stages of life, I would get a whole new feeling or emotion from the person in the picture. This fascinates me. A moment in time, frozen, yet evolving with the passing of time.

After my Mam passed, I immediately turned to photo's. However I became very frustrated as I realised there were very few photos of me and her. The majority of them were my Mam propping me up as a baby,so she was cut from the photo, maybe just her hands or legs in the shot.
So while considering this venture I remembered my frustrations and realised I need to ensure that Mammy’s and Daddy’s Get in the photo. I want to ensure these precious fleeting moments of time are captured for our future families and generations. You may not feel like it but believe me, your children will thank you for it.
My style is very simple. No props…just baby! Their tiny little details are enough to melt any heart. To me its so important to remember how small they are in your arms and so I urge parents to get in the photo… hold your precious baby, kiss them, breath them in because I promise you, you will forget how small they are. I will give you some guidance in terms of posing simply to ensure baby is safe and comfy, but your true love for your new bundle of joy will do the rest.

I specialise in using natural light and lifestyle photography which I believe captures the most intimate and beautiful images. I give guidance in relation to client wardrobe as this has a massive impact on the final image. Incorporating natural, earthy tones will ensure my clients and their babies are the main focus of their session.
I offer a mobile photography service which allows you to remain in your newborn bubble a little longer but also removes the stress and anxiety of trying to get a new baby and toddlers to an appointment. I am very baby led so we work to their demands and ensure they are well fed and comfy to ensure those special juicy face shots. All I need is a bright room and then you and the camera do the rest, so why not book a consultation today and GET IN THE PHOTO!
