It is always an honour when you’re asked to teach on a subject you’re passionate about. So when I was approached by Click Photo School to ask if I could work on something on creativity I took a deep breath and said YES! Why the deep breath? Because creativity is something so deeply ingrained in…
I shared some previous ClickPro monthly projects. I love that these push me to look for different photo opportunities that I might not try otherwise. In December the topic was quite loose…. just “30 days of…” and you could choose your own topic but then shoot it every day. I chose “30 days of my…
Happy 2019!! And thanks for the wild ride 2018!! I’m delighted that I got to capture families all over the world this year – our move from Abu Dhabi saw me branch further afield, and try new things, meet different people and embrace change. The constant throughout all this was my desire to capture connection,…
Sometimes you have a seed of a thought, which develops into an idea, which gets shared and grows and is nurtured and evolves and eventually turns into a little piece of magic. And that happened last year for me. In the form of “The Wondering Light”, a beautiful, enriching photography retreat in Goa, India. That…
This is Me. Sometimes photography takes a lot of bravery. Non more so than when you take part in a project that involves taking self portraits. Like many photographers I am a million times more comfortable behind the lens. Like many women I see my own flaws all too clearly and have the voices of…
Ramadan Kareem. Ramadan is a really special time when you live in the U.A.E. Last year I strived to capture an Abu Dhabi Ramadan in photos so that I could treasure some of the things that make it unique. It’s a quiet time for contemplation and Abu Dhabi seems peaceful and even for those who…
I’m all for putting my money where my mouth is!!! And to my great honour, Nikon Middle East recently made me do that!!! One day last year I was talking with the people at Nikon Photo School about the lack of females in their speaker lineup, and the lack of education in their lineup aimed…
Last month I had the opportunity to teach a workshop at the Xposure International Photography Festival held in Sharjah, UAE. I wanted to do a brief, informal recap on what an incredible teaching platform that is. Obviously I was thrilled to be part of it, and the fact that my class on photographing your kids…
Sometime in January I headed out of town to location scout for some great spots for some Abu Dhabi desert shoots – what happened instead was that I ended up filming some behind the scenes for my latest break out, and they ended up being some of my favourite photos!!! I had my camera, but really I…
I am SO excited to be part of another BreakOut for Click Photo School!!!! I love their BreakOuts as a short, sweet means of learning at your own pace and they’re just such incredibly good value. This one is with 4 other amaaaazingly talented artists – like so much talent that my jaw hit the desk…
The ClickinWalk is coming up soon and this year it will be held in Abu Dhabi for the first time ever which is very exciting for me as someone who has been a photographer in Abu Dhabi for 10 years!! For those that don’t know about it, it’s a photo walk that happens in cities all…
A beautiful review of some of the Abu Dhabi Families and moments photographer Kirsty Larmour captured in 2016
What do you buy for the Photographer you love? It doesn’t matter if it’s a birthday, Christmas, Eid or another special occasion we photographers rarely want photography gear for Christmas – we want the lovely extras, the fun things, the special things, the things that make us feel good – especially if we’re already in…
So after months of preparation my Break Out has finally gone live and it’s so exciting!! I have the most adorable group of students all keen to capture great memories this summer wherever they are, and whatever they’re doing. And that’s just what I wanted! People who are passionate about experiencing life AND capturing it…
