Family.

The biggest adventure of your life.

From that first magical moment when you feel your baby move to the miracle of holding your baby in your arms and watching them grow.

As your maternity, newborn and family photographer, I pour my heart and soul into each and every session to capture your motherhood journey from pregnancy through to newborn and family milestones.

Hey, I’m Aoife!

I am a newborn, maternity and family photographer known for my timeless, naturally beautiful images of pregnancy, newborn and families created in my gorgeous studio in Dun Laoghaire.

I feel incredibly lucky to meet and photograph every family who comes through my door. Each family is unique in their story, their connection, their love for each other.

As a Mum myself, I know how difficult it can be in our busy lives to take time out to pause, breathe and enjoy the love and joy we find in our families. There is nothing more special than being present with you and your family to record the magic.

  • Newborn baby all snuggled up photographer Dublin

    Aoife captured our little baby boy perfectly with all of his unique expressions and mannerisms highlighted. The session itself was so enjoyable as Aoife was incredibly patient and worked with us to create photos we will always cherish!

  • Gorgeous squishy baby on her tummy asleep

    Aoife is incredible at what she does. I had a maternity photoshoot and then we had our newborn photoshoot. She made us feel so at ease, especially the newborn photoshoot when we were so tired with our little 8 day old. The photos are incredible, something we’ll treasure forever. I’d highly recommend Aoife and can’t wait for her to capture more of our family milestones in the future.

  • Gorgeous image of 3 little girls smiling by Family Photographer Dublin

    We had a wonderful experience taking part in a family photoshoot with Aoife recently. With 3 little girls aged 6 and under, it wasn’t going to be the easiest task getting everyone to look in the right direction etc but Aoife did an amazing job. The girls took to her warmth and humour instantly. When our gallery came back, we were blown away by the images. Aoife was so pleasant to deal with in the run up to the photoshoot and she’s so organised and efficient. We would highly recommend her services! We are delighted to have these beautiful images of our family and will treasure them! Thank you Aoife!
