Last Friday, Catherine Dunne launched her latest novel "Missing Julia" as part of culture night, in the Irish Writer's Centre in Dublin.
Here are a couple of the portraits that I was commissioned to produce of Catherine for publicity and for use on the cover of the book.
Tipped for an Orange prize nomination, "Missing Julia" is a powerful portrayal of life, love and reconciliation. Published by MacMillan, it is available in bookshops nationwide.

Preparation is key in corporate photography, because you have to get the shot. As a professional, that is what you are being paid to do.
For example, when I photographed financial expert Liam Croke, I was set up to start shooting in the company corporate style, before he arrived. We began the session after a brief chat, but shortly after, the time originally allocated had to be seriously curtailed, when one of Liam's clients arrived early for a meeting.
Fortunately, I work very quickly and not only did we get the required images, but in a really short time produced a variety of poses and setups which can be used in the future.
I guess, in corporate photography, the motto is: Always be prepared!
