Hello!

My name is Thomas David Kavanagh, a photographer that shoots wedding, lifestyle and commercial portraiture. I was born and bred in Dublin, Ireland but have been living in Birmingham, England for the past decade.

I have started a photography business called Saol Photography. Saol (pronounced 'Sail') is the Irish word for 'life'. I chose this as it represents how important photography is to me as well as the type of photographs I want to make.

In this blog I will share details of how my business progresses and also the projects that I am working on. Your views and comments are greatly appreciated. All of the writing and images seen in this blog are created by me and I retain the copyright. Should you wish to use any of my images, please contact me for permission.

Thank you for taking the time to visit,
Tom :-)

Sleeping Beauty Live


As it's snowing outside and the Christmas spirit is still very much with us, I have to share these photographs. Before Christmas I had the opportunity to shoot the cast of Tamworth Pantomime Company's Sleeping Beauty, before the production had begun.

In the new year I got a chance to photograph the show live in what was their last performance. It really was a great show and enjoyed by all. Though it does raise the question why do we have to wait until Christmas to enjoy ourselves this much!?!









All of the cast were outstanding and were really enjoying themselves, best sign of a good panto! The photograph below is of Sleeping Beauty played by Abigail Byrne, who offered the audience a relief from x-factor style life with some of the best live vocals I've ever heard.


















A bit of singing and dancing from the cast to end the show with everyone on their feet. Happy New Year, Tom :-)
