Welcome

I’m Brümilda

Heartfelt family photographer in Killarney creating natural, emotional family & newborn photography across Kerry.

Originally from South Africa, we moved to Ireland, which shaped how I see photography and the value of preserving everyday moments. Life moves quickly, and photographs are a way to hold onto what matters most, what once was…

I believe in natural, heartfelt photography that is child-led and free from pressure or awkward posing—just real connection, laughter, and the in-between moments that often mean the most.

I also have a deep love for printed photographs. Something you can hold in your hands and return to over the years, not just scroll past on a screen. That’s why I have carefully curated the products I offer from some of the best professional photo labs in Europe. When you see the result, you will be so glad that you invested in high-quality products that will become your family heirloom.

My goal is simple: make the entire process as easy as possible. From recommending locations and planning outfits to helping you choose how to display artwork in your home, I will help you every step of the way to create honest, emotional images for families across Killarney and Co. Kerry that feel timeless and personal.

“Photography is my way of turning important moments into timeless stories—because the memories that matter most deserve to be felt forever.”

My Why

Why this matters to me…

Photography matters to me because photos become the memories we turn to when the people we love aren’t with us, when life changes, and when nostalgia shows up uninvited. They hold the little moments. The laughter, the connection, the in-between pieces of life that pass faster than we expect.

That’s why I love what I do.

As a family, newborn, and child photographer in Killarney, Co. Kerry, I create natural, relaxed photo sessions for families who want more than posed images. Whether it’s a quiet newborn session at home, playful child photography, or a family walk in one of Killarney’s beautiful outdoor locations, my focus is always the same: capturing genuine connection and real emotion.

I also offer pet portrait sessions, because our animals are part of the story too.

Each session is designed to feel easy and unhurried, so you can simply be yourselves while I document the moments that matter most. No pressure, no awkward posing, just honest, timeless images you’ll come back to again and again.

If you’re looking for a photographer in Killarney or nearby areas in Kerry who values natural moments and meaningful storytelling, I’d love to work with you. Book your session today and let’s create something you’ll hold onto for years to come.

Sessions available in Killarney, Killorglin, Kenmare, and surrounding areas.
