HEY,
I'm Deirdre!

Family Photographer Dublin,  Couples Photographer Dublin
Wedding Photographer Ireland
Candid Natural Photographs


 

Allow me to photograph you and your loved ones in a natural way, capturing the all the love, the joy, the tears, the drama, the life & the wonderful connection you have for one another! I love to photograph it all, from the tantruming toddlers to those big squeezy hugs. 

I wanna get to know who I'm photographing, so that the end result is genuine. It will be like meeting a friend and going for a wander! We can even stop in a pub a long the way. Honestly. I am NOT a photographer's who's going to spend ages perfecting each shot and I really don't concentrate on things like fly away hairs. I don't do client wardrobes or tell you what to wear. I just want you to be you! 
I'm a photographer who prefers to leave the muck stains on the knees rather than remove them in photoshop.
 
But after saying all this, I will guide you every step of the way because I truly want you to have photographs that are more than just memories, photographs you will love and connect with in a way that is uniquely yours. 
 

I specialise in heartfelt family, couple's and wedding photography, taken outdoors at a location that is special to you in Ireland or from the comfort of your own home.

I hired Deirdre to photograph my engagement proposal in Dublin and I couldn’t be more happy with her work.

Deirdre really cares for her craft and her clients. She was professional, took incredible photos, and was an invaluable resource for planning the proposal and for the area itself.

I would recommend her for anyone in need of a photographer for any event and can’t wait to use her again when we return to Ireland.

The best decision I ever made was to propose to my future wife but hiring Deirdre Rusk was a close second.

We found Deirdre online and decided to take a chance.

Honestly we couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. The photos are stunning, we were blown away.

 

You see stand out shots on photographers websites but never really think that's what you'll get, it's just for the lucky few.

 

Our shoot returned so many stand outs, we couldn't believe it.

 

 

And it wasn't just the results, the day itself was so much fun. Deirdre is so personable, the time flew by and everyone was so relaxed in her company.

 

She's a total pro and I would recommend her to anyone.

I was searching for the right someone to capture the little moments with my family. As soon as I saw Deirdre’s creative work I knew she was going to be the one for us.

I’m not a fan of being in front of the camera either but Deirdre came into my home and it was like an having an old friend come to visit.

She made us all feel so comfortable and we absolutely loved the process. She captured moments I will treasure forever.

I was genuinely emotional when we got our gallery- the photos were incredible.

Couldn’t recommend highly enough!

Do you want to take better photographs of your children?

Multi Award winning Family Photographer Dublin, Ireland - Let's create images as unique and deadly as you!

Deirdre took the most incredible photos of our family of 5 adults while on a recent trip to Ireland!

We wanted a family photo as a memory of this special trip to Ireland, and the photos that Deirdre captured are stunning. I know that we will treasure them for many years to come.

Not only is Deirdre a very talented photographer, but she's such a joy to be around and has such a kind and generous heart.

I truly hope our paths cross again one day!

There genuinely aren’t enough stars available here for me to tap on that would show how amazingly talented Deirdre is. From start to finish, she has been a pleasure to deal with.

I knew that I wanted a very relaxed, informal and fun family photo session and wow did I strike it lucky when I came across Deirdre. Our session was so much fun and the kids still talk about her!

She has given us so much joy through the moments that she captured. Her eye for detail is evident in every single photo that she has given us. If you are on the fence wondering if a family photo session with Deirdre is worth it then I have absolutely no hesitation in saying to jump off and land on Deirdre’s side! You will not regret it!

Thank you so so much Deirdre.

Family Photography is more than just pictures! They’re a time capsule of all those wonderful little moments that matter! As the years go by, these photographs of laughter, love, and connection become even more priceless, reminding us of who we are, who we were, how beautiful life is and the memories you've made.

 

My approach to photography is not about stiff posing or forced smiles - I'm all about capturing the real, raw, and joyful moments that make your story unique - I want you to be yourself, relax and have fun. Whether it’s your wedding day, a family adventure, or a celebration of love, I create a relaxed, easy-going atmosphere where you can truly enjoy the experience. Based in wonderful epic Ireland, I’m here to work with you to create unique, timeless images that you will cherish for generations! x
