All are welcome!! On the opening night we will be heading to the Porter House, Temple Bar between 21:00/22:00. This will be an amazing chance to talk to lots of photographers, bloggers, models, stylists, make up artists, curators, agency’s and all round amazing people! This is a party/networking opportunity not to be missed!!
Hopefully by now, you have all heard about my first solo photography exhibition ‘Earthy Creatures‘ which takes place in Filmbase, on Tuesday March 1st at 19:00.
On the lead up to the exhibition I have been documenting a few of the mini-projects I have been working on while getting ready for the photography exhibition. This gives you a glimpse into how much thought, work and detail I put into my work, not just my photography but minute details such as the colour and texture of the paper on my invites. It’s easy to do a job well but to excel & stand out, you have to do mix it up and do things differently. I paid visit to a number of stationary shops around Dublin to find the best material I could for the invites. I wanted quality paper that had texture and strength for when people received their invites.
Everything to do with the series/exhibition I wanted to include my earthy theme throughout. You can see this by having a look the competition I ran last week in Dublin too. Every invite had a leaf hand glued to the paper it was typed on. Gold ribbon was tied around each invite for a rich exclusive touch. A few weeks before the making of the VIP invites, I requested my very own wax stamper/sealer to be created in Canada with my photography logo engraved on it. I wanted these invites to feel very personalised, rich, to ooze luxury and above all, stand out from the crowd. I’m really happy with how they’ve come out.
Earthy Creatures is my first solo photography exhibition. It will be held in Filmbase which is in the heart of Dublin.
I have been shooting the Earthy Creatures series since 2009 and I am tremendously excited to showcase my work. The exhibition is a collection of portraits captured with the interpretation of living creatures, which we have yet to discover. It also showcases some of the amazing landscape, hidden features and true beauty we have in Ireland (specifically Wicklow & Dublin). I have kept all of this series offline so there would be more impact when visiting the exhibition. I would love to see each and every one of you on the night, the more the merrier!! If you are on Facebook I have created an event which will remind you closer to the time. Feel free to RSVP, tell friends and spread the word!

Last night I took part in the Brainstorm event run by Connector . It was an extremely sociable, enjoyable and insightful evening! One that I’d love to take part in again. One of the topics discussed was ‘How to save Ireland‘ and there were many odd & interesting idea’s produced and formulated. Thinking outside the box at it’s best!
I was also one of the entrepreneurs pitching my Pet Photography Ireland business. Brainstorming provided quite a few interesting idea’s that I hope to implement over the coming weeks and months!
An article about the event over on Business and leadership.com
If so, feel free to leave a comment here or contact Connector for more information on upcoming events!
This morning we had an amazing photoshoot, yet another Earthy Creature shoot. Really going full steam ahead with this bad boy! The wonderful Mirela was just an amazing model. She jumped straight in and did a top notch job!!
If you read my photo-checklist from last weeks shoot, you will see I don’t usually bring all the normal things along. Today was no different! You can add a spade, hammer and three bags of coal to the list for today
I update my facebook page more frequently with a lot of smaller updates, so feel free to ‘Like me‘ on facebook for even more updates.
Here’s the video from today! (and yes that is us burying poor Mirela)
I was fretting earlier this week when the rain started to threaten but thankfully it was even better than I had wished for. I shot another Earthy Creature (to read more about the series you can get a small insight here) today and it was WATER! The amazing Lynn was the model and she looks amazing I must say! All of the Earthy Creatures will be getting displayed at my exhibition in December/January (so stay tuned for more info on that!)
I thought it would be cool to pop up the checklist I went through before leaving the door this morning for the shoot. So here it is:
That’s the list for the shoot today. Interesting mix-up eh?
A shot taken a while back on the ‘Fast & the furious’ Strobist Photo shoot in Dublin. I wanted to give it a bit of a movie style feel to the shot so added some cross processing and the usual widescreen black top & bottom.
Hey folks,
As many of you know I’ve been keeping fairly busy with these Earthy Creatures, here’s a few behind the scene(bts) shots from the first shoot a few weeks ago.
For more information on these shoots head on over to my facebook page and you can also read about all the other creature photoshoots here!
