Family photography that feels like home.

Child - led, where playtime creates the moment and I capture it.

I am a Family photographer based in Newry. I specialise in evoking emotion and portraying a timeless family shoot.

My outdoor sessions take place in the picturesque fields, parks and beaches this beautiful part of the world has to offer. Living at the foot of Slieve Gullion and the Mourne Mountains allows us to have the greatest backdrop for each family portrait.

Having three young boys of my own I understand how important it is to capture them at every stage. I want you and your family to be completely comfortable during a session, so I can capture those natural candid moments, jumping, skipping, dancing or running.

“We couldn’t recommend Danielle enough for taking our family photos in a special location so close to our home. Nothing was a problem for her and she was so good with our kids. She captured them when they were having the best of fun! We would highly recommend you to capture photos for any occasion.

Thank you so much Danielle.”

“We had a fantastic experience with Danielle from Hillhead Photography. She captured our family beautifully with natural, relaxed photos that really reflect our children’s personalities. The kids had so much fun, and it shows in every shot. We’re absolutely delighted with the results and highly recommend Danielle for anyone looking for genuine, heartfelt family photography.”
