NORTHERN IRELAND PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER
GET TO KNOW ME
HI! I'M CATRIONA
'Turn your face to the sun and the shadows fall behind.'
I’m a portrait photographer and educator specialising in headshot photography, personal branding & family portraits.
Based in Coalisland, Co Tyrone, I primarily work throughout the island of Ireland.
My photography school, The Photo Academy NI, was created around 5 years ago - I provide a range of photography workshops, both online and in person. These include beginners photography workshops, taking better photos with your smartphone and photography mentoring.
My photography style is modern, creative and colourful.
I know stepping in front of the camera can be daunting so my aim is to take the fear out of photography. Clients are put at ease, feel relaxed and we bring out the best version of you on camera.
I am the visual storyteller. The collector of memories. Let's go on an adventure together and find some light ...

1. Discovery - We examine where we are in our lives at present, what inspires us and how fulfilled we are
2. Self Image - how do we see ourselves, how to feel empowered and learn to shine
3. Safe Space - what does safe mean to you? Is it a place, a person or feeling?
4. Gratitude - we embrace the concept of gratitude and learn how it impacts on our lives
5. Growth - this can be both challenging and beautiful. Change is necessary and inevitable. We explore your personal and photographic development so far

TESTIMONIALS
'Catriona is a true talent. During our family session, she made us all laugh and relax. Really, really enjoy it. The end products are absolutely stunning. I actually shed tears when I first saw them. Her work is unique and individual. We cannot recommend her highly enough.'
RUTH & OLIVER
I am really delighted with the beautiful headshot photos Catriona took! Very flattering and she put me at ease. Made the process enjoyable, despite my general discomfort in front of the camera. I wouldn't hesitate to use Divine Photography again for business or personal photos!

I attended Catriona’s workshop on Taking Better Photos for Business and was just enthralled with it from start to finish! There were so many hints and tips to help you & I left understanding how I can really utilise my phone to take quality photos for online use for my business. Worth every single penny. Catriona has such a lovely manner and no question is a stupid one! Don’t hesitate to book on her course

I was fortunate enough to win a number of awards last year. The one I am most proud of is The Photographer’s Bar, from The Guild of Photographers. This is a unique distinction awarded to those photographers who have successfully had images assessed by the Guild of Photographers over the course of a year. You must attain a score that evidences an exceptional level of professional skill and consistency throughout that full year.
Guild Director Lesley Thirsk said “I am delighted for Catriona as this is a great achievement! Submitting and having images assessed every month for a year and reaching the required standards to become a member of the Photographers Bar is very demanding. It illustrates her commitment, skill and consistency. Catriona should be very proud of what she has achieved.”
