“There are some people who live in a dream world, And there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.”

— Douglas H. Everett

Every image—a story worth sharing

I’m Dave Haworth, a portrait and commercial photographer based in Waterford, Ireland. My work is about more than just taking photos—it’s about capturing personality, confidence, and real moments.

I fell in love with photography at a young age—the ability to freeze time and capture a moment fascinated me. As I grew into my craft, my passion for getting to know my subjects and visually telling their stories flourished. In recent years, with drones and new ways to capture movement that is ripe for setting to music and sharing with your audience—I embraced video to complement my photography.

I bring passion, artistic vision, and a creative process that merges seamlessly with your story.

What I Do

I specialise in portraiture, headshots, branding, lifestyle, editorial, cinematic storytelling, and social media content. Whether you’re after a powerful headshot, a striking brand image, or something more creative, my goal is always the same: to make you feel comfortable, confident, and seen.

No stiff, awkward poses here—just a relaxed, enjoyable experience that brings out the best in you.

Why Work With Me?

Photography should feel like an experience, not a chore. I make every shoot easygoing, fun, and collaborative—designed to showcase you at your best. My approach is relaxed, natural, and engaging, tailored to your personality.

With years of experience in both photography and video, I bring a creative, storytelling-driven perspective to every project. Plus, I promise no forced smiles—unless they happen naturally.
