FAMILY SESSIONS
Documentary family photography sessions in Dublin, Ireland
Family photography with a happy ending
Imagine your photos framed on the wall, or in a lovely,
velvet album sitting proudly on the coffee table.
No more pictures stuck somewhere on a hard drive.
I believe you deserve to be in the photos, too.
When was the last time you got to be with your loved ones in the pictures? Are you tired of the out of focus photos of yourself? Are you tired of having to take selfies everytime you want to be included?
Then I got you, mama.
I understand how important this is: you being in the family photos. I believe you should be a part of the memories, because so often, you play such a huge role in creating them. Your kids will want that too, one day.
Family photos are treasured and invaluable, they are heirlooms for the generations to come.
I offer newborn and family photography sessions in your home or outdoor. The sessions are 1.5 hours long so you can take your time and truly enjoy the moment.
If you want the full experience, I offer day in the life sessions that are 4 hours long and allow you to get a wonderful glimpse of what a typical day of your life as a family looks like.
Boy is parenthood a rollercoaster. The noise, the mess, the worry. We love them so much it’s overwhelming.
Everybody tells you these kids will change in the blink of an eye and, deep down, you know it’s true.
But sometimes you can’t help it, you wish you could slow down or even stop time, just for a little bit. Just so those tiny hands stay tiny a while longer, just so they keep saying that word wrong in the cutest way.
I wish I could do that, but while we wait for someone to invent a time machine, what I CAN give you is :
Powerful and candid images that truly reflect who you are.
A moment to hit pause on your busy day for a self care gift, entirely dedicated to you and your little ones.
My gentle approach to family photography, as a mama who knows how grateful you and them will be to have these memories.
This is truly the best gift we could give ourselves. Your work is essential.

Yeah! Then the fun begins. We start chatting about you and your loved ones. What is your family like? What do your kids love?

You chose your collection
You will love opening your gallery
“Omg omg, the photos are here guys!” This is the day you have been waiting for and I am so excited to send your photographs.
Your gallery is 100% made with love (and Wi-Fi, okay). You will get to discover the photos in a beautiful slideshow, then it’s time to choose a collection. Collections start at €350 and include a number of digital photographs as well as a print credit so you can hold your photos in your hands and decorate your walls.

You choose your keepsakes
I told you there was a happy ending!
This is real: prints, albums, frames for your walls. Beautiful, luxury artwork for you to hold and see everyday. Your kids get to see how much they are loved and treasured. This is a gift to you and to them.
The store in your gallery allows you to use your print credit and choose from a carefuly curated selection of timeless, fine art prints, designed to last and become family heirlooms.
I’M SO HAPPY I MADE THE LEAP! NOT ONLY AM I IN THE PICTURES, THEY ARE TRULY WONDERFUL! THANK YOU SO MUCH

DAY IN THE LIFE FAMILY SESSIONS:
Want the full experience?
I offer 4 hours long reportage sessions for a complete immersion in a typical day for your loving family. You get half a day of coverage at home, the perfect duration for the best storytelling, without exhausting anyone.
With Day in the life family photography sessions, you can include a family meal, a good deal of recreative activities and games, the daily care routines, snacks, and even a little walk outside if the weather is on our side.
You will get to choose which part of your day you want me to capture. Morning, afternoon or evening, that’s up to you and what you prefer most, what works best in your busy schedule, and your child’s daily habits.
I will be that good friend with a camera and the witness to all the adorable, real and meaningful moments of your day as a parent. Unscripted and candid photographs for spirited families allergic to stiff, awkward posing.
Your Day in the life session is all inclusive with the complete gallery of digitals and a fine art family album.
A Day in the life session is €1500. Find out more right here.
WHEN IS THE RIGHT TIME FOR A FAMILY PHOTO SESSION?
Right now! It’s tempting to wait for warm weather, for a sunny day, for that missing child tooth to come in, or for an exhausted mama’s dark circles to disappear.
But truth is, now is as perfect as it gets. The mess is fine, your hair is great, you look wonderful. Give yourself grace and remember no child ever will remember that laundry was overdue and you missed a shower. You are their world!
Gift your future self with all the love you deserve.
