Softly Untamed

One of my favourite things about photography is collaborating with creative people and bringing ideas to life together ✨

Had such a lovely day shooting with Lori Muse - Bo***ir & Art Model 🤍

A really creative session with soft florals, earthy tones and beautiful natural light. I’m obsessed with how these turned out already and still have so many more to edit through ✨

Lots more photos to come 📸

Wow! So excited to see one of my puffin photos from the Saltee Islands published in the Belfast Telegraph Lifestyle Weekend Magazine! 🐧📷

Honestly still can’t believe it’s in print. Such a special spot for wildlife and such a fun day taking photos. Feeling so lucky to get to do this!

It’s not even December yet, and somehow we’ve already ended up knee-deep in Christmas lights, hot chocolate, and photo props 🎅
Tried a few festive setups this week,one cozy bed scene with Christmas PJs, and one by the fireplace that just makes my heart melt ❤️
My little one and a friend’s were absolute stars (in between the snack breaks and giggles, of course).
Feeling properly festive now, might put the tree up next! 😂🎄✨

“Meet the feathered torpedo – the Common Kingfisher! 🚀💙
Despite looking like it just stepped out of a tropical rainforest, this beauty is right at home along our rivers here in Northern Ireland.

With eyesight sharper than your camera’s autofocus (and mine’s pretty good 😉), kingfishers can spot a tiny fish underwater from metres away. They then dive in headfirst at lightning speed like an Olympic swimmer with a better wardrobe. .

That brilliant blue? Not paint, not pigment — it’s microscopic feather structures bending light in a trick called structural colouration. Nature’s own special effects. The orange chest helps with camouflage against the sunlit bank… though let’s be honest, subtlety isn’t really their style.

Territorial by nature, they’ll often return to the same favourite perch. Which is great for photography if you can keep up with them. Think Formula 1 with feathers
