Dominic - One Down, Two to Go!

First business day of January, we got a call from Jenny who was delighted to have gotten a voucher for Christmas from her brother Fergal & his wife Michelle (we photographed their wedding in 2007 - thanks guys!) and couldn't wait to book in a session with her baby Dominic for his  first shoot in our 'Watch Me Grow' program.  

The 'big freeze' scuppered initial attempts but we got into the studio shortly afterwards and were treated to the biggest smiles as Dominic took it all in his stride. Definitely not camera shy!

Usually we reserve our early morning slots (and for us early morning is 10am!) for new babies but Jenny assured us that he wasn't a morning person and 4pm would be his best time!!!!  We thought so many of our clients would kill for that! 

We had such fun at the session and reliving it all afterwards during the viewing that the last thing she said was "I can't wait for the next session"!  Neither can we.

Based between Dublin in Ireland and Waterloo in Canada, we also travel to many other locations to capture weddings for our clients - from South Africa to Mexico, Spain to Scotland!

This shoot made us hungry!

We were asked to be part of an exciting project in aid of the Irish Hospice Foundation - a cookbook which has recipes from all the top restaurants around the country. So, we found ourselves spending a day around some gorgeous venues in Dublin in the company of some of Ireland's top chefs and their work, what a delight!

The Cellar Bar in The Merrion Hotel was first up and the level of perfection was amazing, down to angle of the signature pattern on the plates.

One Pico in Molesworth Place were looking for some images to capture the ambience as well as the French cuisine.


The staff were so helpful and delightfully French! Pity it was too early in the day to sample the dishes though!

Dax was one of those hidden treasures, with a cosy fire and subtle lighting, the atmosphere was delightful (and the coffee amazing!).
At Pearl Brasserie the fresh and smoked salmon tartar was presented so beautifully, the vinagrette looked like it was a pattern on the plate!
We finished on a sweet note with the challenge of a rapidly melting desert at Bang Cafe!


The book is in the final design stages at the moment and will be out in time for the Christmas market, keep an eye out for it!

Latest Portraiture Slideshow

2009 has been a challenging year for everyone it seems. But above all, it is our friends and family which are what really count. At our studio, we are priviledged to meet some amazing people and families who are looking for something that little bit different. Their family and relationships are really important to them and we have created some great heirlooms for them in our studios in Fashion City, Dublin and downtown Kitchener, Ontario. This short clip shows a sample of some of our work from the past few months. To find out more email us in Canada or Ireland
