Happy New YearJanuary 11th 2012
St James' Gate has been the home of Guinness since 1759. During the 19th and early 20th centuries, the brewery owned most of the buildings in the surrounding area, including many streets of housing for brewery employees, and offices associated with the brewery. Each year at midnight the workers of the brewery change the overhead entrance sign for a new year, this year marking 253 years of Guinness being the largest brewer of stout in the world. No more than a handful of people are ever there to mark the occasion which is a slightly different way of bringing in a new year.
Christmas GreetingsDecember 19th 2011
I would like to wish all of my clients, friends and family a very happy Christmas and prosperous new year. Thank you all for your support during 2011 and I look forward to working with you in 2012.
IPPA AwardsNovember 8th 2011
Back in August I was delighted to have been awarded 1 Diamond, 5 Golds and 4 Silver awards at the third judging heat of the IPPA Photographer of the Year 2012. Many of the winning Gold & Diamond images can be seen on the IPPA website. As President of the Association I will abstain from entering my work in the final judging but was nonetheless delighted to have achieved these results as part of the the awards program.www.irishphotographers.com
Steve Jobs RIPOctober 6th 2011
One of the best business decisions I ever made was buying a Mac computer and it has been at the heart of my business for several years now.
The Apple founder Steve Jobs has left a legacy of innovations behind him and the Photography industry has alot to be grateful to him for.
RIP
On the Market!October 1st 2011

The Streets of FlorenceAugust 26th 2011
I spent a wonderful 7 days this month strolling around the timeless streets of Florence building up my library of stock images. It is truly a delightful place for an architectural photographer to visit. It was refreshing to capture baroque and medieval architecture which is a welcome change from the much more modern commissions that I undertake on a daily basis. Florence is the centre of the Italian Renaissance and without doubt one of the most beautiful cities in the world. This image is of 'medieval skyscrapers' in the Tuscan village of San Gimignano. I will post some more images from this trip on my Facebook Business page.
Pantone ArtJuly 31st 2011
Pantone is the world-renowned authority on colour and provider of colour systems and leading technology for the selection and accurate communication of colour systems across a variety of industries. The PANTONE name is known worldwide as the standard language for colour communication from designer to manufacturer to retailer to customer. I recently photographed an Pantone art installation which can be seen on my business Facebook page.
Panoramic photographyJune 10th 2011
I have received quite a few requests for images in widescreen format lately. Panoramic images require several images to be stitched together in post production but the end result can be very dramatic. Have a look at my Facebook Business page where I will have regular updates on some projects and commissions that I am photographing for my clients.
Gareth Byrne Photography Website updateMarch 29th 2011
A new thumbnail gallery system has just been added to the website allowing viewers to see a full range of images contained within each section of the website. Some new images have been added with more architectural and fine art photography to be launched shortly.

Christmas GreetingsDecember 20th 2010
I went out this evening to take a Christmas photo on Grafton Street. Not only did I find the lights and the busy shoppers, but as I set up the tripod snow flakes began to fall. Wishing all my clients, friends and IPPA colleagues a very happy Christmas and a joyful and prosperous year in 2011.

Gareth has been elected President of the IPPAOctober 3rd 2010
It was with great pleasure that I took up the office of President of The Irish Professional Photographers Association, at the Annual Conference held at The Radisson Blu Hotel Athlone on Sunday 3rd October. Here I am pictured with immediate Past President Paddy Clarke who presented me with the chain of office. I am very much looking forward to the next two years and would like to thank the IPPA membership for their support.
Home Renovation ProjectJune 3rd 2010
Gareth recently photographed a home renovation project in Shankill. With night-time photography what you see is not necessarily what you get. Simple shots of buildings can suddenly become illuminated in a kaleidoscope of coloured light, and the light sources themselves (streetlights etc.) will become brilliant spots of light. Take a look at our after hours gallery to see more from our night time portfolio.
Launch of Property ImageMarch 22nd 2010
Gareth Byrne is delighted to launch Property Image which is our sister business that deals solely with the promotion and marketing of residential and commercial property coming to the market.
