Claire O'Connor's installation at D-light studios was in support of fellow fashion designer Sylwia Kaminska and an event organized by her friends as a fundraiser entitled "Mind your own Fashion Business" which took place in D-Light studio's on 15-December 2011. Designers, models, hairdressers, make-up artists, stylists etc gave up their night free of charge to offer makeovers and fashion tips to the general public. The night was as much about raising awareness to how difficult the fashion industry is as it was about fundraising. So in keeping with the theme Claire O'Connor's installation depicted a homeless scene. The spring/summer 2012 collection was tossed about the set while four models wore some of the avant-garde pieces, which included a beautiful chiffon dress with a  leather bodice. In the centre was the designer herself, looking pretty disheveled wrapped in a blanket, equipped with a paper cup and sitting on a floor of cardboard, some dress patterns, a copy of Italian Vogue and a sheet of cardboard with a personal message to one of the most influential people in the industry that read: 'STEVEN MEISEL, PLEASE HELP ME, I DONT DRINK, DONT SMOKE, DONT TAKE DRUGS, I JUST WANT TO BE A FASHION DESIGNER. THANK YOU. GOD BLESS. CLAIRE O CONNOR'

The Queen led her entourage on the brief walk across a grassy pocket of the Golden Vale near Hore Abbey and then travelled by car the short distance to the limestone outcrop known as the Rock where she was met by Brendan Howlin, Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform.

She was shown a replica of a 12th century St Patrick's Cross before being led in to the cathedral accompanied by Minister of State Alan Kelly and Dr Eugene Keane, from the Office of Public Works. Inside the cathedral Aighleann O'Shaughnessy, senior conservation architect, spent a few minutes in the south transept describing the architectural features and the ongoing conservation.

"She was such a warm and responsive personality, she was clearly very interested, they both were," Ms O'Shaughnessy said afterwards. After being shown the restoration of ancient wall paintings, the royal couple stood for a few moments listening to the school choir.

My wedding photography is informal, based on modern reportage style. My aim is to capture the whole feeling of your day with my photographs. I can take a variety of shots, some candid/unposed, others can be more formal of the bridal party and family groups. I provide you with a storybook record of your day from the preparation of the bride to the last dance. 


Approximately 2 weeks before your wedding we get together to work out your personal 'action plan' for the big day, we will visit the church and reception venue and you will discuss potential photographs and assess the backgrounds available for your different pictures.This is a great way for to to get to know each other beforehand - if we are all relaxed and having fun - it really does show in the final photographs. 

I Offer Two Packages: 

Package One  - Photos only package (No Album). CD of selected images. Private online image gallery to share your wedding with family and friends

Package Two Photo album only - approx 35 - 40 printed photos.

Professional colour correction,  and retouching on both packages

Photo from our shoot for Dublin band "Identity Parade" printed on page 73 of 8th May edition of U Magazine

 Identity Parade.jpg

Dublin based band "Identity Parade". Since its release in March 2010, Identity Parade's debut album has been working its way through the Irish music scene . Since coming together the band have vowed to reproduce content of work that define where they are as a creative force at that given moment & as of now they have no reason to sway from this path. 

Having completed a successful Irish tour to coincide with the album release the band recently made their way across the UK & into Germany for a couple of shows throughout the months of April & May. Such was the reception that a Spring tour of both territories has been confirmed.
