Ashbourne Communions

I am excited to meet everyone on Saturday! These mini sessions will run back to back so please arrive at the time we agreed and be ready to go!

Location Details:

You'll find me stationed either in front of Ashbourne Church or just around the corner, depending on where the light is most favorable. Please refer to the photo provided, where landmarks A & B are marked. You cant miss me!

Photoshoot Procedure:

When you arrive at your pre-arranged time, approach me, and we'll spend up to 5 minutes capturing your family.

My goal is to ensure we capture the following:

  • A Full Family shot,

  • The parents and Communion child,

  • A sibling shot (if applicable)

  • An individual portrait of the communion child.

    If there are additional family members present, I'll happily accommodate any specific photo requests. Once we've captured the essential shots, I'll take as many additional photos as time permits.

Weather Contingency:

Should it rain on the day, we will take photos inside the church.

Payment:

Please bring balance of €40 in cash on the day, placed in an envelope with the name of the person who booked and the Communion childs name written on the front. This helps keep everything organised.

Relax and Have Fun:

Remember to relax and enjoy the experience. Genuine smiles and interactions often result in the best photos. If other family members are present, please avoid prompting children to smile directly at the camera, as this can sometimes lead to distractions. I will make every effort to capture natural smiles and ensure that children are looking at the camera. Similarly, with younger children, it's best to refrain from pointing towards me, as it might divert their attention away from the camera and we are left with a photo of a parent pointing at me:)

After the photoshoot:

You will receive via email, a private gallery 1 to 2 weeks later. Where you can conveniently download your chosen images. There may be more then 5 images in your gallery, you will then be able to choose which 5 images you would like, there will be an opportunity to purchase more images if wanted

I look forward to being a part of your communion celebration and preserving these cherished memories for a lifetime.
