Your photographer

Hi, I’m Aušra, your photographer based on the edge of Galway city. I specialise in newborn, kids and family photography. I capture beautiful, warm, natural moments, focusing on people and their relationships with each other.

Originally from Lithuania, I came to Ireland 19 years ago and I fell in love with this beautiful country and its warm, genuine and welcoming people.

I developed a strong passion for photography at a very young age. My dad had a camera (which wasn’t that common back in the 80’s) and loved taking photos of our family. It was fascinating to see the pictures appearing on the pieces of paper hanging on the line in a dark room.

I started specialising in newborn photography in 2018 when I got pregnant with my daughter Leya. Luckily, a lot of my friends were having babies in around the same time which gave me an opportunity to practice, learn and fall in love with newborn photography more and more. With each photo session I learnt something new and improved on my skills. I continue learning and my style is changing as I learn.

Over the past few years I have invested my time and capital into my professional development. I spent a number of late nights studying tutorials that I purchased from the best newborn and family photographers in the world. I have attended live workshops and consulted with fellow photographers in Ireland and abroad.

My mission

My main mission is to give you the images that your family deserve and make the process as easy and effortless as possible.

You will find an easy to use booking system which will allow you to book your session on the day that suits you.

Either you chose the studio, your home or outdoors, we will have a nice relaxing photo session. I get on well with kids and I work fast to capture the most natural moments and real smiles.. Hopefully everyone will be able to relax and forget that your photographer is even there.

Studio

My home studio is set up for newborn, portrait and family photography. As a mum, I know how precious your new baby is and baby safety is my No1 priority. I ensure that my studio is clean and suitable for babies and children. My props and fabrics are all top quality and made from natural materials (cotton, wool, wood etc).

I favour neutral colour backdrops and tasteful minimalist props to create timeless images maintaining the focus on you and your children.

My two girls

Outdoor family photography sessions are some of my favourite. They are all so different and unique as I customise them to suit each family. You can pick a location that is convenient to you and I will come over and capture your family. My outdoor sessions are relaxed and fun. It’s like going to a park, a forest or a beach with your family just I come along and take beautiful images of you enjoying the outdoors.
