Photography By Janine...

I came across Janine's work in a very random way! You'd think that because we're both from Northern Ireland I would have spotted her work ages ago, and I probably did without realising it lots of times, but officially I got to meet Janine through Fred Egan's blog. I love the work of american photographers, the colours, the tones, the relaxed style... and Janine is the first Northern Irish photographer I've come across whose work matches the style completely.

I completely fell in love with her work! It really is beautiful! We chatted through the blogs and that was that until to my horror my album company went into administration. I didn't know where to begin to try finding another reliable album company and in the end I picked up the phone and rang Janine to ask her advice. Not only was she unbelievably helpful, but we kept up our emails to each other. My first year in business has had it's highs and lows and to be able to speak to someone who has been in your shoes is unbelievably helpful. So yesterday we met in person for the first time when Janine took pictures of me for my website.

I have put off getting pictures taken for SO LONG as I hate to be in front of a lens! And poor Janine, I talked and giggled the whole way through the session (and barely looked at the lens when she asked me to without giggling!) which is why I am completely astounded that she got these results (click on this link).

Thank you for being so much fun to be in front of and making the experience a blast! =) xo
