Meet Diana
Dublin Family photographer
Hello, I'm Diana - a lifestyle and family photographer based in Rathfarnham, Dublin.
I've been living in Ireland over 20 years and am a proud mum of two beautiful children who inspire me every day. Although I studied interior design, my heart ultimately led me to photography, where I found my true passion in capturing genuine connection and meaningful moments.
When I'm not behind the camera, you'll find me spending time with family, traveling, baking cakes, or cooking for the people I love.
What i photograph
I specialise in capturing life's most meaningful milestones - from maternity and newborn sessions to family portraits and special celebrations such as christenings, communions and confirmations.
I also photograph small, intimate weddings and couple love stories, documenting your connection in natural and timeless way.
My focus is always on genuine emotion, beautiful light and quiet moments that make your story unique.
FAQ
Do you travel for sessions?
Yes, I'm happy to travel for your session. I'm based in Rathfarnham, Dublin, and local travel is included. For locations further away, a small travel fee may apply to cover fuel costs.
Where do newborn sessions take place?
Newborn sessions take place in the comfort of your own home. This allows you and your baby to feel relaxed and at ease, creating natural and heartfelt images in a familiar environment.
Newborn sessions are ideally photographed withing the first 5 - 14 days after the birth. During this time, babies are usually sleepier, more settled, and naturally curled, which allows for the soft, peaceful images.
However, beautiful newborn photographs can still be captured after this stage. My approach is gentle and baby-led, focusing on natural moments and connection in the comfort of your home.
I recommend booking your session during pregnancy to secure availability, and we can adjust the date once your baby arrives.
Where do family sessions take place?
Family sessions are usually held outdoors in beautiful natural surroundings. I love using soft light and nature as a timeless backdrop to capture genuine connection and movement.
How long does a session last?
Most sessions last around one hour. This gives us plenty time to create a relaxed experience without feeling rushed.
What should we wear?
I always recommend light, neutral tone such as white, cream, beige, soft grey or gentle pastel shades. These colours create a soft, timeless look and allow the focus to remain on your connection and expressions.
Please avoid bold patterns, large logos or very bright colours, as they distract from the natural feel of the images.
Choose outfits that are comfortable and feel like you. Soft fabrics, simple pieces and minimal styling always photograph beautifully.
For families, coordinating colours (rather than matching exactly) creates a harmonious and elegant result.
When should I book my maternity session?
Maternity sessions are best scheduled between 28 - 34 weeks, when your bump is beautifully visible, but you are still feeling comfortable. I would recommend booking few weeks in advance to secure your preferred date.
How will I receive our photos?
Once your images have been carefully selected and professionally edited, you will receive access to a private online gallery.
Your gallery will be beautifully presented, easy to navigate, and simply to download and share with family and friends. All final images can be downloaded directly from your gallery.
The gallery will remain available for four weeks, so I kindly recommend downloading and saving your images during this time.
