Ireland Destination Photography
Family Vacations - Proposals - Weddings - Solo
What do you feel?
Is it the desire to feel the wind on your face? the sun beating on your skin?
Adventure is calling, are you ready to answer?
It can be a family trip to the home of your ancestors in Ireland, a “Mamma Mia” kind of trip with your friends, or a surprise proposal on the cliffs. Or maybe an elopement?
You decide, and I'm your guy for the job!
Why hire a photographer?
“After all, phones nowadays are great cameras, and I can take my own photos.”
That's true. As a photographer, I can say that the worst camera you can possibly have today is miles better than the best camera the best photographer had back in the day. But that doesn't guarantee good photos.
For example, on a trip to Iceland, at Reynisfjara's black sand beach, I asked a tourist to snap a photo of me by the basalt columns. This was the result:
And that's not all. By hiring a photographer, you can relax and enjoy your trip, knowing your photos will be taken care of and without worrying about planning about them.
So I will answer that question with another question:
How much does a memory cost?
As a frequent traveller myself, I know how frustrating it is to take nice photos of someone and have bad photos of me. That's why I do what I do.
Later on that trip, I met Victor, an amazing photographer from Hong Kong. We were on the same expedition, and not only took some pictures of each other but we're still good friends. After all, that's what travelling is all about! These are Victor's photos:
This is Victor, thanks Victor!
“It was an incredible experience and Rafa knew how to capture our essence SO well! Will definitely do it again!"
Ways to tell if we're a good fit
FAQs
We’re a good fit if:
✅ you find the fun in every moment
✅ you're down for “whatever the weather”
✅ you see a dirty dress as a big success
✅ you love being in action and natural poses
✅ you’ve got a BIG sense of humor
We’re not a good fit if:
❌ you’re a very serious person
❌ anything but perfect weather will ruin your day
❌ clean shoes are more important than a good time
❌ perfection and posing are your top priority
❌ you prefer structure over spontaneity
I’ll be honest with you, you don’t. It’s Ireland, it rains at least 200 days a year. It’s part of the Irish experience. We’ll pray for the best weather and make sure to get your closeups at the beginning of the day, but don’t expect your hair to stay in place much past that. You should see mine xD
How do I avoid the bad weather and getting soaked?
How will the session and the delivery of the photos work?
Instead of hourly-based sessions, I offer exclusive shoots, which means that if you book me, you will be the only client I will have that day. That allows me to focus on you, and you to focus on enjoying the experience and relaxing. I will edit and send you your pictures in full resolution within ten days of the photoshoot.
How much do you help with the planning of our shoot?
I live in Ireland, so I provide you with all my inside knowledge of the best times to shoot, locations, and what to wear. I also have a Pinterest inspiration board I’m always adding to for inspiration. Check it out here!
Do you travel for shoots?
Yes, I do! Initially, I offer shoots in London and Edinburgh, but I'm available all around Europe. Travel fees will be added to the price. Email me for any shoot outside of Ireland and the UK to receive a custom price!
