Family Portrait In Glendalough

tommy Family photography session, on location in Glendalough, County Wicklow.

Camera Shy

A couple of weekends ago I spent the morning up in Glendalough photographing this little guy and his mum and dad. His name is Tommy and he was a little shy of me and my camera at first. After a bit of stone throwing in the lake though he soon got used to me and we had a great time. He’s such a little character:

Thank you Sarah and John for allowing me to post these photos, and for the suggestion of Glendalough as a location! Even in not so great weather, it’s so beautiful up there. I just want to sneak one more in because it’s my favourite, I just love his little expression 😀 :

Hi Timbra! I know who you are, I read your blog too. Wouldn’t it be great if we could just grab a coffee and swap info 😀

I think Mike needs to take you guys back here to Ireland and show you around.

Beautiful as always. I love the way you still reach out and get those faces, even in the midst of such natural environmental beauty. We took Pip and Pop for a walk at Glendalough today and they were paddling and throwing stones in that exact spot.
ps, I love the smoochy kiss Mama is giving in that portrait. Perfect once again Claire.

I absolutely loves these photos. Do you have a Flickr page? I want to add you. and do you use lightroom to mess with photos and give it after effects? I would love to know… email me please!

I decided to do some blogging recently and when I seen this little fella I felt like I was looking in the mirror as he resembles myself at this age. I am really finding the blogging to be very interesting. So much out there and so many people to meet, greet and learn about. I feel like I am out traveling the world and sitting in many peoples living areas.

Take care, everyone
