Just finished Éilís Christmas Photos with Kathleen and she was a dream to work with. She was so gentle and patient with Éilís and didn't rush any shoot. Can't wait to see the photos!

I have been to Daisies and Buttercups for both a baby and 1st birthday shoot and couldnt be happier with the photos Kathleen has taken, she can capture the most natural & beautiful moments in her pictures and customer service is excellent. I hope to return for our future milestone pictures... I would definitely recommend. Thanks Kathleen :) More...

This girl is amazing! I had commercial and headshots done with Kathleen and she made me feel so at ease! I was so nervous as the camera wouldn’t be a great friend of mine but she had me relaxed and laughing from the get go! A brilliant experience! Thank you Kathleen! xx More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
Truth. Strip back the props, dress simply but beautifully and just shine for your photographs. My best images are always my simplest as they focus on only the subject allowing your little ones to shine and highlighting relationships within a family. I do use props when I need to relax a family, my favourites are bubbles, books and cuddles with teddy bears but when asked, I will nearly always choose natural images out over styled images when picking my personal favourites.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
What is the reason for your session? Do you want to have these photographs taken in a particular style or with a particular event in mind? Or is this an opportunity to take an authentic look at you and your family at this time in your lives?
What do you love most about your job?
Meeting families and freezing time for them. Photography is not only for sharing in the moment, it is most powerful for later on in life when we want to look back and remember what life was like right now. It's for grandchildren and great-grandchildren to discover hidden in boxes or hanging on granny & granddads walls. They are the ones who will treasure it most. We all need to be photographed well and photographed often. Our most precious ability, in my opinion, is our memory and it needs a hand now and then. Photographs and Film are a great way to bring happy days and happy times floating back again x
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have very few images of my mum that are truly beautiful because she was always the photographer in our family and therefore very seldom in the photograph, we only ever got photographed as a group on big family occasions by a professional photographer, there was never any image taken to highlight her and show who she was. She passed away when I was 17 and although I often had a camera in my hand from well before then, I often feel I became a photographer because I want to make sure every mum and dad are present in their photographs for their children to hold onto when they can't hold on to you any longer.
Why should our clients choose you?
I want to capture real, treasurable, lasting memories for you to hold onto and that is my main purpose as a newborn, toddler & family photographer. Your day to day memories are your own to safeguard but allow me to make sure that your families history is peppered with beautiful images captured professionally that you can keep for all time. I will make you laugh and maybe a little uncomfortable at times in order to bring out your true smiles and your real connection. I always include digital images in each portrait package and in my Two-Hour & This is Us! sessions you get to keep them all, as I am your photographer not to be rich, but to document your lives and to do that beautifully x
