I know it’s probably not cool, but I am so super excited and honoured to have my work featured on mrs2be.ie! My first submission and feature, natch!
If you’re visting from there, thanks for stopping by. You can keep up to date with me here as i’m a very naughty blogger!
Summertime shoots are in full swing and my next shoot involves sprinkles and glitter among other things so check back soon.
Okay, I was preparing Megan and Sean’s photos and I absolutely could not resist posting a few more. 
I LOVE my job
And I will finish with this!
Vavavoom!!!!
I’ve never found the right time or platform to speak about this. I am a photographer and people count on me to capture happy memories to pass on to future generations. But the truth is, people count on me to capture their sadness and grief as well in order to give hope, to help them grieve and for any number of reasons.
I am one of 15 Irish photographers with Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep. We are volunteers who provide infant remembrance photography for babies who are stillborn or are only on this earth for a few moments but leave a lasting impression in the lives they touch.
Pregnancy is a blessing for most and a time of profound joy, but the harsh reality is that the story doesn’t end well for everybody. We hope to offer families a lasting and tangible reminder of their babies to treasure forever. This service is free and totally voluntary.
Raising awareness is hard as its not a subject anyone wants to speak of. If some of my clients or future clients find this a bit morbid or I lose jobs in case people will think I would jinx them, then so be it. But if raising awareness and offering hope to even one family comes of this, then I will be greatly honoured.

Go to search for photographer by country and you will find any number of us who freely give our time and talents to help families in such a small way.

Where is the time going? I still haven’t managed to get better at updating but I promise, I am trying!
Here’s a quickie from a lovely afternoon with an awesome couple whose wedding I am capturing in October:
You can see more here!
Just a quick update, I hope to do some over the next few days but it has been absolutely hectic here! I tell myself it’s a good thing though.
This is an update on my last post with Julie in her Shave or Dye quest. The big day came and though *I* wasn’t sure she was going to do it, Julie turned what would be a traumatic experience for people who don’t have the choice, into a celebration. To celebrate the fact that we did have that choice and to celebrate and honour those that don’t.
Well done!

This is Julie. See Julie’s lovely hair. See Julie SHAVE her hair off for The Irish Cancer Society with TodayFM’s Shave or Dye. No mere dye job for this lovely, she’s going whole hog! She is then donating her hair to a charity that makes wigs for children that need them. Support her here.
I met Julie and her lovely family on Bundoran beach on a typically wet and misty Irish morning. But the wellies were out and there was lots to explore so off they went!
It was also their 7th wedding anniversary. Bonus!
Funny Faces!
Thank you for letting me share in your morning.
Watch this space to see Julie take the clippers to her hair!
