A Russian romance

Very excited to show an image from yesterday's wedding. My first Russian couple and ceremony. I love seeing the different traditions and rituals around the love of two people from other cultures around the world. Right in the middle of Dublin city I can step for a day into a typical wedding in Moscow.  Thank you Artur and Elena for the honour of documenting your special day in photographs. Congratulations and all the best for your future together! This is my favourite shot from the beach.

Collette & Brendan - The Old Ground Hotel, Ennis

Collette is a good friend of my fabulous cousin Marie(see pic of the two stunning ladies in the scroll). Such a lovely couple, perfect for each other and their day was intimate, personal and fun. Keeping it low key with a small ceremony in the hotel followed by an lovely dinner and then partied the night away! What more could you ask for. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Mini wedding album for John and Xin's Civil ceremony

John and Xin had a beautiful ceremony at the Civil registry office in Dublin, then we all took a stroll along the canal to Merrion Square for a few pictures in the sun before partying the evening away at the Shelbourne Hotel. 

I designed a mini album for them to keep their memories safe in a suede covered, hard cover 9x9inch book . 

This is the book design, double page spreads.

Finished with a Burgundy Suede hard cover

As you can see, John and Xin are really lovely couple, so happy and in love. It was an honour to witness their special day and capture the memories for generations to come.  

Thanks for looking,

Dee :)

These are a couple of my great girls from last year, they love being dressed up in pretty white dresses and feeling super special for the day, even if they are total tomboys every other day. Girls will be girls :)

Thanks for stopping, and if someone close to you has a special day coming up, be sure to book in soon before all the busy dates are gone. Portrait sessions can be as formal or relaxed as you like. This can be an important and memorable time in their childhood. Can you remember your first holy Communion?

Introducing the vivacious and wonderfully fun Hellen

I was so excited to be shooting Hellen. It was a lot of fun creating outfits and styling the shoot with her. She is very much missed by her many friends, including me in Dublin since she moved to New York. Come back soon Hels! xx

Behind the scenes of a Portrait couture session at Dee Organ Photography studio

Check out the beautiful Trish getting pampered and being a model for a day. Being a working mum of one super cute little 2 year old doesn't leave Trish much time for herself. I was glad to be able to give her that for one day and we had so much fun styling and shooting in the studio. Thank you Trish, you are so bubbly and a really wonderful person to be around. 

Leah the ballerina in Dublin bay

I've been wanting to shoot Leah for a while now. She's a beautiful dancer and I've had this sea shot in my mind for forever. I knew she'd be perfect for it! I put together the ideas board that I shared with her on Pintrest and from the clothes she had I was able to buy fabric to match and create a skirt for the floating gown effect... I love how my mediocre seamstress abilities(...ok I used safety pins) worked out!! ;D 

Here is some behind the scenes footage and some more shots from the shoot. 

Big thanks to Marco for the fab hair and makeup. I love the crew at The Studio salon next door to me, they always do a wonderfully creative job and make everyone look and feel amazing! 

Anita & Darrell engagement shoot - Dunlaoghaire Pier

Darrell and Anita flew home to Dublin from Canada for their big day. We had a warm up shoot at the pier in Dunlaoghaire and were lucky enough to get a great day and the rain held off until we were leaving. This was a lot of fun! Thanks guys! :) (click on the image to view the next picture in the gallery)
