Hello world!!

Hi everyone! I’m Jacinta and as some of you know at this stage I am now officially the owner of Johnny Ryan Photography!! Having worked here for Johnny for 9 years, I have now taken over the business … some may say I was always the bossy one .. lol! .. but now I’m allowed! 😉

So the first thing on my wish list was to set up a new website and create an online shop for people to order photos taken at the various socials, parties and events we do. Check! At the end of last year I created and launched the new website http://www.johnnyryanphotography.ie/ and imagine my excitement when I was lazing on the couch after dinner on Christmas day and I got an email to say I had sold a photo!!! On Christmas Day!!! Result! Since then the online sales have been steady and I can highly recommend the lovely people at The Image File for creating such a seamless and foolproof system that I have been able to navigate and understand it without throwing the laptop out the window! 🙂

Things have moved nicely since then and now you can even buy gift vouchers straight from the website too! I am learning as I go, like I always do, and I will be developing the website more as I go on. Thanks to everyone for the feedback so far. It’s been a great help!

As for day to day life in the studio …we are still based on Bishop Street, right beside Tyrrells. UPSTAIRS .. in case anyone can’t find us. 🙂 We are busy booking for confirmation and communion season at the minute. It’s great to see the diary filling up.

As for Johnny, don’t panic, he will not be disappearing totally on us. He’s not one for retiring to the sun, or the golf course!!! He will still be out and about with his camera … but at least now he can enjoy it as a hobby again and have the time to appreciate life ‘through the lens’.

I will be blogging regularly I hope as well as keeping the facebook page https://www.facebook.com/JohnnyRyanPhotography up to date as always. I will be posting plenty of photos on here aswell as showing you some of the photo restoration and editing jobs I am working on.

For now, thanks for reading and please give the blog, website or facebook page a share if you get a moment! Thanks!!! xxx Jacinta.
