About

Hi, I'm Franklin

The thing people say most after a shoot is that they didn't feel awkward. That's on purpose.

I'm a photographer based in Cork. Mostly graduations, studio portraits, families and live events, a lot of them around UCC and the Cork arts scene.

Most people don't know what to do with their hands in front of a camera, and that's grand. It's my job, not yours. I'll tell you where to stand, where to look and what to do, and we'll have a bit of a laugh along the way.

At events I do the opposite. I stay out of the way and catch the room as it actually feels.

Kind words

What clients say

Franklin is incredibly skilled at capturing the temperature of a room. Through his photos, you can get a genuine sense of the vibe and flow of the event he's shooting.
SeanVibes and Verses Cork
He really delivered my Pinterest vision and even elevated it. Franklin was great to work with and I would highly recommend his service for capturing a special day.
GraceUCC graduation shoot
The atmosphere on set was relaxed and collaborative. The final photos came out exactly how I envisioned them (if not better!).
OlaedoPodcast launch shoot
Each photo we got back captured the emotion and atmosphere of not just the space, but the activity as well. If I could recommend forever I would.

FAQ

Good questions

How far ahead should I book?

As early as you can. Portrait sessions usually book 2–4 weeks ahead, while graduations and events often need 1–3 months' notice. Grad season fills up fast.

Do you need a deposit, and is it refundable?

Yes, 50% at booking secures your date and time. It's non-refundable because it holds the slot for you. The other 50% is due on or before the day.

What if I need to reschedule or cancel?

Rescheduling is fine with advance notice, depending on availability. Cancelling means the deposit is kept, but if something unexpected comes up, talk to me and we'll work something out.

How long until I get my photos?

For graduations and events you'll get a few previews within 2 days so you can post, and the full gallery within a week. For studio and family shoots, your gallery arrives within a week of you picking your favourites.

How will my photos be delivered?

In a private online gallery where you can view, download and share them, on your phone or computer.

I've never had photos taken properly. Is that ok?

Totally. Most people haven't. I direct the whole way through, so you won't be standing there wondering what to do with your hands.

Can we chat before the shoot?

Absolutely. A free 15-minute phone or video call is a good way to talk through your ideas, outfits and location so we're on the same page.
