This is the first part of a list with the best photo spots around Dublin, so you can explore magical places while doing a session with me to eternise a memorable vacation! 😉
in ALL THE PICTURES I TAKE my goal is to capture tHE AUTHENTIC REPRESENTATION OF WHO YOU ARE, SO IT IS VERY IMPORTANT that YOU CHOOSE WISELY THE LOCATION where we WILL ETERNIZE YOUR STORY THROUGH PHOTOGRAPHS.
MALAHIDE
a village located on the north coast of dublin city
the beach strand and the Malahide Castle & Gardens are the places that draws everyone's attention! The Castle has over 800 years of history and it has a big botanical collection. The village is Near to Dublin airport and it is easy to reach by train, making it a must-see place, full of history and natural beauty.
ST. STEPHENS GREEN PARK
Right in the city center & beautiful all year long
No matter the season, St. Stephens Green park is a must go. A HISTORICAL PARK CREATED IN 1664, and conveniently located in the heart of dublin. DESPITE ITS SIZE, the park displays from tree-lined Paths to a stunning lake, and is on the route to get to important roads (such as Leeson Street & HArcout Street), making it a great attraction for the ones who just want to take a break on a busy day.
IRISH NATIONAL WAR MEMORIAL GARDENS
A PERFECT PLACE FOR A NICE AND CALM WALK ON A SUNDAY MORNING
a beautiful place dedicated to the memory of the 49,400 Irish soldiers who died in the First World War. It has a beautiful architecture AND IT IS FULL OF NATURAL BEAUTIES. I DON'T KNOW WHAT happens, BUT EVERY TIME I'M THERE THE LIGHT IS SIMPLY breathtaking!! EITHER ON AUTUMN OR SPRING, IT IS always A GREAT CHOICE DOING A SESSION THERE.
HOWTH
a remarkable and gorgeous cliff
YOU MIGHT HAVE HEARD a lot ABOUT the IRISH CLIFFS AND HOW STUNNING THEY ARE, but i must say THAT whoever told you that is wrong! there are simply no adjectives enough to describe how incredible and breathtaking the Cliffs are!! but You don't need to worry if you don't have enough time to visit galway and the Cliffs of Moher, because WE happen to be really LUCKY TO HAVE HOWTH very CLOSE TO Dublin CITY CENTRE. IT'S JUST A 40 MINute journey away by train and there is a parking lot really close by, so if you have mobility issues you're not going to have any problem to enjoy the incredible view.
DUBLIN CITY CENTRE
Portobello - MERRION SQUARE - Grafton St.
It might seemS cliché to do a session at the city centre, HOWEVER IT IS RIGHT THERE WHERE YOU ARE GOING TO bring THE DUBLINER feeling TO YOUR PICTURES. FROM THE RED BRICK WALLS WITH COLOURFUL DOORS TO the famous pubs at TEMPLE BAR, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE MANY LOCATIONS TO visit and to be PHOTOGRAPHed. YOU CAN START FROM MERRION SQUARE, THE HEART OF DUBLIN'S GEORGIAN architecture, AND HEAD TO GRAFTON STREET TOWARDS TEMPLE BAR. YOU'RE DEFINITELY GOING TO SPEND AT LEAST A DAY DISCOVERING ALL THE treasures THAT DUBLIN CITY HAS TO OFFER.
