A sneak peek for the very adorable Jaimie who had nothing but smiles and giggles for me during the whole session. I can’t believe how BUSY boys are! I don’t remember Gabriella being that busy at 11 months, he was a real hurricane. But who can resist those beautiful eyes?
Thanks!
Hello, world!



Rock on!

Sorry, daddy! I couldn’t resist. He was truly outnumbered with his very lovely wife and 3 adorable girls.
Phew, what a day! Back to back sessions today and I am asleep on my feet but I couldn’t resist sharing a few from this morning’s session. The session was a “new baby” gift from a very generous auntie and uncle and though I got lost on the way there (my fault for not listening to directions) I knew I was in the right house as soon as I saw daddy because he was the spitting image of his brother! I’m sure they’re tired of hearing that too.
(shameless plug) Gift sessions are super awesome and with Christmas coming around the corner, you know where I am! (end of shameless plug)
So, without further ado…
Sisters rock!

The new addition.

Giggles with the girls

One of my faves from the day. Not only is the baby’s sleepy smile sooooo sweet, but I love how the older girls are holding hands. Sweetness!

Thanks you so much for having me over today and I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
Another sneak peek tomorrow so visit again soon.

I met the very lovely Ms Aoife this morning with her mum (dad made a quick appearance) at their home and what a little charmer she was! Such a sweetheart, she was very patient with me and even gave us a smile or two. Am i getting broody or what?
As promised, here are a few photos for mum and dad.
Thank you for having me over, it is always a great privilege to share in welcoming a new baby.

A quick sneak peek of the Woods’ Family Portraits I took over the weekend. I love family portraits, especially because my own is so far away. They were celebrating T&M’s 40th wedding anniversary and I was really priveledged to come along to capture them all together. The siblings came from Dublin, Belfast and as far as New Zealand to bring the family together. Thank you for letting me share your special day!

A few more photos from Ronan and Karen’s wonderful wedding.

Hello, baby.

Was there ever a more relaxed groom?

Or a prettier bridesmaid?

Radiant!



More soon!

And suddenly we see
that love costs all we are
and will ever be.
Yet it is only love
which sets us free.

I am only just going through the photos from Karen and Ronan’s amazing wedding. So, this isn’t so much a sneak peek as a sneak! Check back for more of this beautiful bride. Oh, and the groom too.

Yes, I am still here, though you would never guess from how often I update my very neglected blog.
It’s been a very busy summer, between communions, weddings, birthdays and days with some lovely families. Plus some great news on the home front as well! I have a new baby, a D700!!! *faint* I’m really enjoying my new baby and will definitely update with the requisite self portrait in the mirror with my new camera.
In the meantime, back to editing and I will leave you with a few more teasers in the next post.

I spent an evening with this lovely family the other day, and here is the promised sneak peek,
First off, a very special member of the family, Winnie! Who can resist those eyes?!


Then, in order of appearance…



Now, admittedly, on first glance, you wouldn’t automatically guess they were siblings, but if you spend any time with them at all, it is really very noticeable!

And for the stars of the evening,

Happy Anniversary, folks!
Thank you for inviting me into your home and for letting me share this time with your family!
