Timeless Family Portraits In Dublin: Outdoor Adventures or Heart Warming Home Sessions
Vintage-inspired Family Portraits paired with Unscripted Moments.
I capture the connection between you and your loved ones with warmth and honesty. Expect traditional child and family portraits alongside unposed, documentary style moments - such as your busy toddler splashing in a muddy puddle, hiding behind the folds of your dress, or jumping on the bed.
My vintage inspired editing includes"looks like film" black and white and warm, soft colour for an ageless feel.
Choose an atmospheric Dublin location such as Sandycove Beach, Howth village, or the National Botanical Gardens of Ireland for free spirited outdoor family sessions, or enjoy the cozy intimacy of your own home and garden. My popular mini family sessions are held in Blackrock and Seapoint and make the most of seasonal colour through the year, and are perfect for capturing a variety of relaxed family portraits.
Happy New Year, 2025! Plan a Dublin family photography session and embrace early Winter golden hour light.
Plus, I have family photo shoot gift vouchers family and friends.

Documentary Family Photography By Cara
I love it when I get asked to do unposed lifestyle and documentary family sessions for a variety of different family occasions. From surprise birthday parties to fun-filled communions, or perhaps a family session at home with small children or babies with little to no posing - life as it is. Have a look at my documentary family page for some unscripted inspiration, and if you like what you see - Contact me to plan the unplanned!
