Ciara O'Donnell Photography

Ciara is the best! My fiance and I recently got engaged on our first trip to Ireland (first trip out of the states at that). My fiance contacted Ciara before the trip and she helped him plan the engagement so everything went perfect! We couldn't have done it without her! Her professionalism, thoughtfulness and the amazing photos she takes are incomparable. More...

Ciara knocked it out of the park and did an amazing job on our big day. She moved unseen and captured some wonderfully candid shots, but also helped calm the nerves and direct the wedding party when needed. A big part of why the day was such a success, I would have no qualms about recommending her. We're chuffed with the photos and the end product! More...

We are so thankful we booked Ciara to shoot our wedding in December last year. Ciara couldn’t have been more professional or friendly from the moment we made contact with her. She went over and beyond helping us.
When our wedding day came she didn’t disappoint. She got the most natural and beautiful photos and made everyone feel so at ease. She really captured the spirit of our day. The photos are all we wanted and more.
It is clear to anybody who meets Ciara that she has a true passion for her work and this reflects in her genuine desire to give you the most amazing and unique memories that she can. More...

Well what can I say!! Ciara was amazing from the first email and Skype chat over a year ago right up to now. She is always very quick to respond and is so professional.
Our wedding day was magical and Ciara did an amazing job fitting in and getting all the photos she needed whilst not imposing. So many guests commented on how lovely she was and how organised she was.
My new husband and I are very excited to see the results of our photos and we have no doubt that they will be amazing!!
Thank you so so much Ciara for everything xxx

Ciara was absolutely wonderful! She was more than just our photographer. She went above and beyond for my husband and I. Being from the states, she made it easy to get in contact with her and offered to meet with us when we landed in Ireland. She came to our accommodations the day before our wedding just to answer all questions and offer any help and welcome us to the country. Besides that, her work is incredible. She was able to get samples of pictures to us the day of our wedding (which was especially important to announce our elopement to our families). Our photos turned out amazing! Ciara stayed longer just to ensure we got any and all photos. Overall, we had an amazing experience and I would recommend her 100% if you want an extremely talented and personable photographer.

My wife and I love our photos. Ciara did a fantastic job. Having been from out of country, Ciara was accommodating and helpful in every way she could be. Ciara made time for us via skype so we could get on the same page. She made recommendations for flowers(take them because they are beautiful!) and hair/make up for the bride. Ciara is a very kind and caring individual who also happens to take great photographs. If you need a photographer, hire her! More...

Being from America and newly engaged with our trip to Ireland already booked, my fiancé and I thought it would be a unique and beautiful idea to have our engagement photos done in Ireland! I found Ciara by google and emailed her for information, she was always very quick with her responses and made everything so easy to contact her. She made our photoshoot very easy going and we quickly felt less awkward posing for pictures! When the rain started to come in, we went back to our cars and she happily waited out the storm from her car and went back to shooting as soon as the rain stopped. She did not make us feel rushed at all. We received our photos by email two days later and our flash drive was at our last hotel in Ireland before we left the country. We are very please with the outcome and highly recommend Ciara to anyone looking to get their pictures taken in Ireland! More...

Ciara photographed our wedding and was such a pleasure to have with us every stage of the day. With a relaxed demeanor she managed to get beautiful, natural shots and organize an unruly bunch when needed, all the while with a smile and great sense of fun. Her photography is unique I think in how she can use her intuition to portray an individual couple as themselves. She caught some really precious moments. We’ll cherish our wedding photos. Thanks Ciara x More...

All our small but widely dispersed family was in one place at last for the 50th Wedding Anniversary and we thought this might be our only chance to get proper photos taken. I saw her work online and was immediately smitten. As soon as Ciara met us she immediately put us at our ease, and made what some thought a chore into a really special memory. I can honestly say that an hour later we were surprised and sorry that it was over. The results were excellent, though I will say to ask to take more! More...

Our family recently traveled to Ireland. our group of 11 were age 20 months to 76 and it was the first international trip for the youngest of our group. Ireland is also my father's favorite place to visit. We knew we wanted to have the trip memorialized in a special way so I began to search for a photographer willing to work and plan from a distance. When I came across Ciara's photos I was extremely excited and hopeful to be able to arrange to work with her. From the first email she was amazing to work with. She made it extremely easy to coordinate plans and worked wonderfully with a hungry 20 month old and a cranky 5yo. The pictures exceeded our hopes. I highly recommend Ciara! More...

Ciara's causal approach was just what we were looking for from a wedding photographer she was true to her word and didn't keep us away from our wedding guests for a long time taking photos. I think we were gone about 3minutes! Ciara is a true professional and we were delighted with our photos. You would almost forget she was there until you see your photos. More...

I had the great pleasure of getting to know Ciara while planning for my trip to Ireland where I planned to propose to my girlfriend. She helped me work through my plans and assisted me in arranging for beautiful flowers and champagne to there when I proposed. As a photographer, Ciara is phenomenal and was so easy to work with. What sets her apart is her skill and the fact that she cares so much about what she is doing and the people she is working with. More...

Ciara did an amazing job for our wedding in Killarney recently. She was so down-to-earth and friendly that she made everyone feel at ease. Many friends and family commented on how brilliant she was. She was able to strike the perfect balance between getting people together for group shots and also blending into the crowd to get natural 'unposed shots'. We hardly noticed she was there during the ceremony but she captured some fantastic moments. We've seen some sneak peek pictures already which are great so we can't wait to see the rest! More...

We decided to do family photos while in Ireland on vacation. I found Ciara online and loved her portfolio. Her pricing was much more affordable than in the US, and she offered so much more!

She went to our photo sites ahead of time to prepare. She also brought a little gift for our toddler daughter, to take impromptu photos of her opening a gift! She spent an incredible 2.5 hours with us taking photos!

The photos turned out BEAUTIFUL and AMAZING! We all joked that they looked Photoshopped as she was taking them.

She emailed us a link to our photos just 3 days later, and provided a pretty wooden flash drive with the photos loaded before we left Ireland. She provided 176 beautifully edited photos with full print release.

Next time we come to Europe, we'll definitely be contacting Ciara for a possible photo shoot! Thanks again, Ciara! More...

Ciara was such a lovely, warm presence on our wedding day and we were delighted with the photographs. She was very patient (especially when we had to nip back inside for a quick dance! )
Some photographers have a reputation for being pushy, but Ciara is super professional in her approach and is genuinely a very friendly person. I would certainly recommend her as a photographer for any occasion. More...

Ciara works to a very high standard, she puts long hours into getting every detail perfect. I recently completed a fantastic 8-week photography course facilitated by Ciara. She has immense patience, generosity with her knowledge and is a wonderful teacher. I learned so much in the course as Ciara's professionalism shone through. I would highly recommended Ciara's photography service and also if you would like to learn a new skill at a high level, give her evening course a try, you'll be glad you did! More...
