My friend Laura from medical school, came to stay with me for a week. Laura and I have always loved to dream up something beautiful and try to create it in images. Each year we were together in Ireland, we would create something together. It was so nice to have an opportunity to do this again, even after we had graduated and moved to different sides of the world.
When we would do our photoshoots in Ireland, we were always limited by having to rush back home to study, or just generally filled with the doom of an impending exam. This time, we were so free, with nothing to do but to enjoy our time together and create something beautiful. We had a lot of ideas, and I’m excited to share them with you!
Here are some of the images we have created together in the past:
Laura & the roses, Laura & the ocean, & A strangeness in the woods.
Usually I feel much more comfortable behind the camera rather than in front of it – but this time, I decided to try it out! Over the years of doing our random, amateur “photo shoots” I think Laura and I have gotten really good at working together towards our vision.
I don’t usually like to just dump photos into a blog post without any words to accompany them, but neither do I like to write captions just for the sake of writing them. So this time, here is something from us, for your eyes.
The majority of these photos are taken with my SLR, with just a couple with my phone.
Thanks for looking!

I like them all, but the very first one is my favourite.
What a great way to capture a friendship.
I can imagine a similar post 20 years from now…
Hey A. I think the first one is my favourite too. My expression looks so intense. Laura and I were laughing about it….the pain in my eyes lol…you can’t make that up!
And what a great idea…we should for sure try to recreate this in 20 years 😊 thank you for the idea.
