Firstly, thank you again so much for taking the time to stop by and view my work! My name is Clare-Frances Faissal. Based in Stonepark Longford. My home town in Ballymahon, Longford. A home filled with so many happy memories, and it is those memories which have led and inspired me to become a Photographer. After completing a honors degree in Visual Communications DIT. I immediately took the plunge and set up my photography business straight from collage. I definitely am a go getter and believe if you have a dream you go for it. I can now happily say I am now living my dream.
My mother has been the strong influence in my photography dream; her paramount influence, when we were younger to have our family photo capture professionally, along with our communion & confirmation occasions. I have these memories for life and I can now pass these portraits down to my own children. Yes, I am a mother, so I truly know the importance of having professional portraits of my children and family.
This is a gift I wish to give every single client.
I pour this Joy and love I have for Photography into every session I capture, whether it is photographing a family together, a wedding couple or a child’s portrait. This passion drives me to excel in this craft, in aspiring to bring that same joy & love to you.
My photography style and approach is simple, pure and beautiful.
My belief is, every person is unique and wonderful and I seek to capture your unique personality through my beautiful photography. My most loved part about my photography business is, getting to know people and the second most amazing part is, when a client becomes a friend.
I would love the opportunity to meet you and photograph your special moments in your life!
If you would like to book now or check my availability, please contact me HERE.
Can't wait to meet YOU!

We met with Clare & discussed what we wanted & we knew Clare was the perfect person for the job. Clare was super punctual on the day-arrived. Clare is such a lovely lady to deal with, nothing was a problem on the day. So easy going and laid back. We would highly recommend Clare to everyone"

"Wewould highly recommend Clare to everyone planning a wedding. We received 200 photos just one week after our wedding- we were so delighted with how quick Clare worked on our photos. We received the remainder 2 weeks after. Something I would have thought would be months after the wedding. We really really loved all the wedding pictures, Clare did such a fantastic job! We didn't have a videographer at the wedding but we didn't need one as Clare captured every special moment on the day. Thank you so much for"
