Sophie Kooks

2012 was definetly the year of the cookbook for me. I photographed five different books so far this year. Its impossible for me to pick out my favourite they were all so different and interesting to work on (not to mention delicious!) Sophie Kooks was the first cookbook i shot way back in February. Sophie Morris is the co owner of Kookie dough with her partner Graham. It was the first time we worked together but hopefully not the last, it was such a fun experience. Here are some of the photo's from the book...

New cookbook

In april i had the lovely job of photographing Catherine Fulvio's new cookbook due out this Autumn. The book was shot in Catherine cookery school, Ballyknocken House.
It makes such a difference when you have a strong team to work along side. All the ladieeez at Ballyknocken were amazing and the wonderful Stylist Orla Neligan and assistant Carly Horan made this shoot such a brilliant experience. I can personally vouch for the yummyness of all the food. I can't wait to post some of the food photo's, in the meantime here's the cover!

Fab Ladies!

One of the best things about my job is the fact i get to meet such a variety of people. Last month for The Gloss Magazine i shoot three very different but equally inspiring ladies.


Above is Clodagh McKenna, chef and author of 2 lovely cookbooks. She recently launched her cookery school in the Village at Lyons



Mags McLoughlan wrote a wonderful and very honest account of adopting her son in Guatemala. I had such a lovely time photographing Mags and her beautiful boy, JJ. You can listen to her interview with RTE's John Murray here. Or read the full story in The Gloss here
