Yesterday I had the pleasure of doing an Engagement shoot with Sinead and David! In the fabulous Lough Key Forest Park. Even though the weather wasn’t smiling on us, this pair didn’t let the rain dampen their spirits.

I can’t wait to show them all the photos during the week! But here is a sneak preview from the shoot!

Is Your Personal Brand Walking its Own Walk?

“You must trust that your beliefs are unique, your own, even though others might think they are odd or unpopular. Even though the herd might go “That’s baaaaaaaad.”

Are you just conforming to what others are doing? Or are you standing out from the crowd, like you should be??

Who knows where this is?

This weather is making for some fabulous photos! Whos knows where this might be??

Family Photoshoot!

fmcguire — Sat, 24 Mar 2012 10:31:22 +0000

A family shoot for me is all about Capturing Personalities! And in this shoot it was easy. The four kids have lots of energy and buckets of personality. Tom the youngest was a little camera shy at the beginning but had us all laughing and entertained by the end of it.

I hope you enjoy watching them as much as I enjoyed taking them.

Profile Photo – Whose Business is it anyway??!

fmcguire — Thu, 22 Mar 2012 21:39:13 +0000

In today’s world – the importance of maintaining a professional image on the internet is more important than ever. Your Profile photo is a very important part of that image, so if you still have an egg as your Twitter avatar or a photo from a night out for your Facebook page, you need to come see me! Click here!

Whose Business is it Anyway?

Business owners need professional profile photos. Social media profiles require profile photos. If you’re on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter you need a professional headshot to help people remember you. It should also be used on your website and print media/brochures.

What some others have to say on the subject!!!

“No matter how much quality information or witty repartee we send out into our social networks, first impressions are almost always visual. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand that the first thing we see when checking out a new Twitter follower, Facebook friend, or LinkedIn connection is a profile photo. And in a world of quick clicks and divergent attention, if the photo you present isn’t eye-catching, or illustrative of your personal brand, you may miss your shot at making a positive first impression. “ www.mashable.com

“Whether you work for a company, own a business, or whatever your profession or occupation may be, you should look the part. First impressions are extremely important and having a professional-looking photo can make the difference between gaining more followers and attracting more customers. Your profile is part of your overall brand. “
