Location Brand Clothing

Admin — Sat, 15 Dec 2018 15:28:11 +0000

I did a photoshoot this last week for “Location” a new Irish clothing brand. At the moment they are starting out with a limited selection but will be adding additional stock in January. Having touched the jumpers shown here, I can vouch for the fact that they are nice and soft.

The Sweet Look

Admin — Thu, 02 Aug 2018 06:58:14 +0000

The fun thing about this photo-shoot was playing up the bright eyes of the model. In discussing what we wanted to do with the shoot was get this classic sweet look. The first step was to do a nice soft makeup and the hair in the braided ponytail. Then looking through the outfits she brought, we decided on a few different dresses. For this part of the session, I wanted to use a pink backdrop and found that the black and white dress with a short skirt worked perfectly. The outfit and lighting allowed us to have some fun with the nice and innocent expressions and eyes she has, yet with a bit fun and naughty behind the eyes.

Overall, this was a really fun photography session where we experimented with different outfits, lighting, and ideas to get a lot of great looks.

1920’s Themed Photoshoot

Admin — Sat, 28 Apr 2018 17:14:04 +0000

The last time I did a photography session with Aline, we went with a retro 60’s theme. This time around we decided to move it back to a 1920’s themed photography session. The fun of themed photography sessions is that we get to play with different looks. And of course, since Aline is such a fun model we were able to come up with some great images.

For this one I wanted to do something a bit darker and moody.

This next one, in keeping with the dark look we decided to show off a little leg.

When people come into the studio they often think they have to smile in the pictures, but that is not always the situation. Sometimes a serious look has a wonderfully dramatic look to it.

Sisters

Admin — Tue, 22 Aug 2017 15:15:59 +0000

As the song goes, “Sisters, sisters There were never such devoted sisters,…” The lyrics by Irving Berlin were never so true when it came to these two girls who came in for a a Girls Day Out photography session. As you can see by the expressions on each others faces that even though they were yucked out every time I said give your your wonderful sibling a hug, the way they did it was so great. The session was a lot of fun for me to photograph, as we laughed a lot.

People often think that pictures have to be perfect or posed in some way, everyone looking at the camera, but that is not always the case. Some of the more fun ones and the ones that tell a story are those ones where we have fun and do hugs or other random things to get a laugh. It doesn’t work for everyone. In some families people are a bit more reserved and that is okay as well. Once I figure that out about them, the pictures I take lean more towards the more formal ones that they are looking for. In the case of these two girls that was not the situation, as you can see from this picture taken after I said the words, “give your sister a kiss on the cheek.” Sooo, great.

I also had the opportunity to play with different lighting and props and these two wonderful girls were plenty happy to play along.

Best Wishes!

Fusion Engagement Video

Admin — Tue, 07 Mar 2017 14:57:09 +0000

One of the nice things I like to do for engagement sessions is, if possible, is a fusion engagement video. What that means is I will sometimes during the engagement session take some video of the couple, usually telling how they met or some other nice story. If the sound turns out and it works out we get a lovely video mixed with a slideshow. That is where the fusion comes in, the fusion of still images and video.

For this photography session I went and met the couple and we hit it off right away. They were really lovely to talk to as we walked round this park along with their dog. I of course tried to get a few pictures with the dog as well but he was having to much fun running around, so mostly just some lovely engagement pictures with two great people.

Wishing you Many Years Together,

D Studios!

Mother, Daughter, and Disney Photo Session

Admin — Thu, 15 Dec 2016 15:42:03 +0000

When people come into the studio with props or t-shirts or anything else that we can use, I am super happy. In this case we had an opportunity for a Disney photo session. The daughter is a huge fan of the Disney theme parks and in visiting many of the parks she has acquired a few things like these ears and t-shirts.

During the photography session we had great fun with the mom and I couldn’t have been happier to get this photograph of her looking less than enthused while the Disney loving daughter is having a ball!

Excellent day and I hope you enjoyed your makeover and photography session as much as your photographer did.

Like all families I’m sure they have had ups and downs over the years, but it was truly wonderful to meet these two and the love they clearly have for one another.

The Joys of Theatre Photography

Admin — Fri, 25 Nov 2016 13:54:11 +0000

I don’t often do a lot of work with theatre photography, so when I was contacted by the producer of Stacked I was happy to sign on as the photographer. The cast arrived at the studio with costumes, makeup, and best of all a shopping cart.

For this photoshoot, instead of trying to make everyone look the best, I was able to do the opposite and light them in a way that gave them a sad overworked look.

That was for everyone except Aiden who plays a more eccentric role.

If you are looking for a live performance this week, I would highly recommend this one. I know I will be going.

Location Photography Session in Temple Bar

Admin — Sat, 25 Jun 2016 12:47:03 +0000

One of the great things about historic cities like Dublin, Ireland is that when people come for a visit, they have a lot of old buildings and historic places to see. These two were over visiting from the US and decided to commemorate the trip with a location photography session in the Temple Bar area of the city.

It was an odd day in Dublin the sun was shining but it was also very cold. We met in the morning before the crowds and the extreme chill in the air made for a cool shoot that woke everyone up quickly.

Hope you enjoyed your trip to the city and the rest of your European adventure.
