    The architecture photography walkabout was fantastic. Lucian's approach was perfect. He gave an overview of the topic and then got us to practice. He then gave feedback on our photos. It was a really excellent event.

    PHOTOGRAPHERS
    Siobhan Maher
    Siobhan Maher grew up atop Montpellier Hill, Dublin. She completed diplomas and degrees and finally graduated as Dr Siobhan with a PhD in Food Science and Technology in 2004 at UCC. Many years working in the food industry left Siobhan unwell, so she transitioned her career and earned a diploma in complementary therapy. In 2010 Siobhan opened A Bit of Heaven wellness centre in Meath and Dublin.

    Photography remained a passion, and in 2022, Siobhan developed the dream to marry her passion for nature photography with her love for creating poetry to publish the photopoetry book

    Journeying
    Photopoetry to Revive Your Soul.

    Siobhan Maher is available for private bookings

    I have mostly covered events in nature or involving animals, such as forest gatherings or horse shows.

    I have been the primary photographer for the CAP book awards in Ireland for a number of years.

    I am open to private tutoring and may consider covering your event if I feel I would do it justice. Please feel free to reach out to me with details and to get a quote.

    This image shows the nymph stage of a water boatman. Its muscle bundles appear to glow in vivid orange and blue-green on either side of its body due to the use of crossed-polarised light during observation. Muscle tissue is birefringent, meaning it alters the phase of light passing through it, creating this luminous effect. In contrast, areas without birefringent properties remain dark.The specimen was one of several aquatic creatures collected in a jar during a sampling along the Grand Cana

    I enjoy macro photography highlighting parts of everyday object wee usually overlook. In this picture, I noted the opening of the white rose petals to reveal the reds and oranges of the stamens and pistil against a golden glow formed from the light diffusing through the scene, like the opening of a painted paper fan.
