Cara, Communion Photographer Dublin; Carefree and Climbing Trees!

Hi, I'm Cara, Communion photographer Dublin. Every year parents are looking forward to their child's Communion day, usually held in May.

Like all my family photography session packages, I offer four communion session packages from 45 minutes quick communion family portraits to a full documentary style narrative of your day, from church and Communion mass to celebrations in a special place afterwards, or in your own home and garden.

I do Communion mini sessions in Blackrock and Seapoint Beach near Monkstown, as well as Glasthule and Dalkey, and longer length sessions all over Dublin.

Often Communion weekends have turned out to be sunny in Dublin! On this outdoor Communion session in Donadea Forest Park, I sought out available shade under the trees. As well as more traditional family and child portraits, I captured documentary unscripted moments - this little girl in her Communion dress swinging from the trees, embracing dappled light!

Looking to gift a session? Vouchers are available!
