Annabelle in Éire Photography 📸

Welcome to Annabelle in Éire Photography

Hi, I’m Annabelle, a passionate photographer based in Ireland.
I’ve already introduced myself here, so let’s take a deep dive into a few of the photos I’ve taken since I bought my very first camera, my sweet Fujifilm X-S10 (and later with my X-H2S) in April 2023 😉

Gem cutting factory in Royat, France

One of my first projects. The factory closed a couple of decades ago and hasn’t been visited until September 2023, and I was there. The energy was unbelievable ! The place felt alive and expecting its workers to clock in.
It was a really enjoyable experience and the place truly inspired me. Having a knack for history, and an adventurer vibe, I love shooting in such places that once carried so much life and energy !

Concert photography & live comedy shoWS

Music has always taken a significant place in my life and soul.
Whether a source of inspiration when I’m in a creative process, or a way to cope with my daily life struggles or even in the happiest moments, music is always either in my ears or in my mind.

I’ve got two accomplishments in event photography that I’m most proud of.

One would be Michael Blaustein, famous American comedian.
Back then, I was still living in Volvic, France. I had booked a flight to Dublin when I’ve read that Michael was performing there during my stay. Unrelatedly, he posted a story on his Instagram, as he was seeking a graphic designer and left his assistant email address for everybody to see.
As shy and introvert as I am, I gave it a try : “Hi guys ! Would you let me come to the show and take a few photos ?”
IT WORKED.

The other (and truly the only I’m the most proud of) is a life-long dream that I had. See, I’ve been a huge fan of metal band Kamelot for years. I love everything they do to the point that I preorder every new album before even listening to the samples or teasers they might release.
So, obviously, I did everything it took to nail a photo accreditation for their show 🖤
Series is available here, and I hope many other are to come 🖤🖤🖤

Other bands include Shaka Ponk or Sum 41.
