Gals,
Ive been so excited this weekend with news of a more personal nature. My dad recently embraced his passion for photography and has been honing his craft this year with some pretty intensive practicing sessions. Well the news broke this week that Dad has his first exhibition booked and will be aiming to showcase his body of work before christmas in a local venue.

This is awesome news guys as Dad spent his whole life working in a different job and denying his creative streak only to revisit it after life took a new path. I'm probably his most biased biggest fan and his work really inspires me everyday so I wanted to share one of his portrait studies with you as they are so sweet.
Sophie is my only niece and my Godchild and Dad managed to capture his granddaughter in what can only be described as a really special Rembrandt-esque piece. I love the mood of both shots and the elegant line of Sophie's neck in the pic, her dance training is already evident in her posture and I love how photography captures her little mannerisms.
Well done Dad and here's to a fabulous exhibition.
We will be sure to share pictures from the night.

Gals,
I just had to share this recent snap from Dad. It doesn't get much more "Steampunk" than this!!!
Its a photo taken of a local chemist/pharmacy in my hometown, Clonmel. Unbelievably this establishment was open when I was a child and Mam used to purchase ointments and interesting lotions in gorgeous glass apothecary style jars with labels and twine on them. Its got such antiquated character, almost reminds me of a set from a Tim Burton film!!
Folk often ask us where we get our inspiration from and quite simply a local building like this will fuel the creative juices every time! Honestly, can you not see a jacket in this picture??
In Style....

Spring is coming ( I know gals , I'm being a bit premature but living in Ireland Im really feeling the urge to shake the winter off as soon as possible!) So in honor of having our eye on all things spring sprongish here's a shot from a really enjoyable shoot yesterday with a local edgy photographer, Shane O Neill. Shane has a really great eye for angles and perspective and injects a bit of art into all of his shots! You can check him out at his website
It was absolutely freeeezin on the beach yesterday and all of us behind the cameras were shivering under layers of parkas and such so its a bit of a miracle that my model/sister managed to keep a spring serene glow about her whilst the tips of her big toes were quickly turning a funny shade of blue!
All in all it was a really great day and I'm looking forward to sharing more shots with you guys over the week. x
