Hi there!

I'm Kieran (she/her) and I love telling stories. 

When my grandma gave me a pink, Samsung point and shoot camera at 11, the photo bug bit me. I became a yearbook guru, journalist, and portrait photographer before getting a BFA in Photography and Print Media in 2021. 

Each moment only exists once, but by taking a picture we save parts of our stories forever. I love learning about what makes my clients sparkle. I'm a hopeful romantic who wants to show off what brings you joy.

Fingerprint Photo Studio FAQ

My Photography Style

I use a fluid and movement filled modeling style to capture genuine laughs, secret smiles, and get you comfortable in front of the lens. My wife, Sabine, has been photographing beside me for years and is often my second photographer during longer or more intensive photoshoots. We both find that the best photos are the natural, candid, ones with your real emotions and joy on display! 

My Editing Style

My goal is to give you photos you'll love just as much in 40 years as right now. I emulate a timeless approach inspired by the colors and lighting of the shoot's location. My photos are often rich and full so you can feel back in the moment even years later. I edit out acne, distracting signage, and help tame hair- but I believe in authenticity. I do not remove rolls, double chins, or otherwise edit people's weight. Your photos should make you feel confident in your body, because it's wonderful as is! 

Travel Fees

Travel up to 30 miles from Richmond, VA is complimentary. After that, it is IRS standard of 67 cents/mile for 2024. Anywhere farther than a three-hour drive will require reimbursement for a night of lodging. 

Diversity & Inclusion

Fingerprint Photo Studio is a queer, woman-owned business. All are welcome and celebrated here. This is a safe space for all races, religions, sexual orientations, and gender identities. 

Some Things About Kieran

For the busy bees who want fast facts.

Favorite Foods

Dessert is my favorite meal of the day - especially if it's related to chocolate. My top "real food" is either Panang Curry or Stuffed Shells.

What I'm Up To

Editing photos on the go! My wife, Sabine, and I love exploring. We travel all the time. While I am based in Virginia, don't let distance stop you from reaching out.

I'm Obsessed With

Our pug, Francesca! She can't sleep without her toy Alien and she snorts out her birthday candle each year.

Cafe Order

A cup of Earl Grey with two sugars, and a pastry of any kind, please!

Go To Binge Watch

When it's a family TV night, we go to "Worst Cooks in America" on the Food Network. I'll also throw on a sitcom like "Scrubs" or "Arrested Development".

Hobbies

You can find me covered in clay throwing wonky pots on the wheel or going for an early morning run! I also write poetry and short stories in glimmers of free time.
