December 17, 2010 Corporate photography

I could do this once upon a time: Like I said, “Once upon a time” Not too sure I could do it now without a month in hospital afterwards… This young lady has a bucket-full of medals and awards as a gymnast and was one of a series of images taken recently of Sports Bursary [...]

Charity creative

December 13, 2010 Corporate photography

I was asked recently to shoot a promotional image for a Corporate Quiz night as a fund-raiser for a charity. Hmmm, what on earth can I do to create something interesting from what seems at first to have limited potential for an interesting image. A quiz night, really???? I see so many boring images with [...]

Gone fishin’

November 24, 2010 Corporate photography

Sometimes I nail the best image with the first one I take at a shoot (surprisingly frequently considering I don’t have a clue what I’m doing) and sometimes it’s the last one. Sometimes as a PR photographer when you’ve done the main images from a shoot and have them safely “in the can” as we [...]

Getting creative for a charity shoot

November 12, 2010 Corporate photography

I was asked to come up with a creative idea to promote the Irish Wheelchair Association’s Angel-pin day. This is a flag-day where lapel pins are sold to the public to raise funds for a charity. Sometimes with charities they think some kind of personality and a brochure or flyer and that’s more than enough [...]

I forgot the Teddy Bear

September 23, 2010 Corporate photography

Yes yes I know you’ve only recently had an animal pic, but this one is just soooo cute. Obviously he’s not really a Teddy Bear, he’s a Red Panda, born two months ago to mother Binthy and father Bamboo: Father Bamboo is believed to be one of the oldest Red Pandas to breed in captivity. [...]

SuperHero..

September 6, 2010 Corporate photography

and super heroes. I recently read something by a PR contact of mine complaining about the fee that “celebrities” charge to attend/launch/endorse a product or service and it got me thinking about the times that I’ve done a shoot where the opposite is true. The difference? The celebs in my cases have been sports people, [...]

The whirlwind that is -

August 25, 2010 Corporate photography

Darina. I did a launch shoot recently with top celebrity chef/TV personality/author/cookery teacher/business woman Ms D Allen who is easy to work with as she knows “the drill”. She’s a very busy lady and is nearly always under pressure to be somewhere else, right about now. The shoot happened to be in the railway station [...]

Clinging on

August 9, 2010 Corporate photography

One of the nicest shoots I get to do on a fairly regular basis is to document the new arrivals at Fota Wildlife Park. Here is the latest, a baby Lar Gibbon: There’s usually two things you need for photographing animals, a big lens and patience. I had to wait a while for mother & [...]

Entrepreneur

July 28, 2010 Corporate photography

Another in the “not a man with folded arms corporate announcement image” series (which isn’t really a series, but an occasional musing). Could also be filed under the WTF am I going to do in this instance category, where nobody (including me) has any real ideas initially on how to portray someone when there is [...]
