Connolly Weber Photography

We are a photography and film team specilised in architecture and portrait. The core essence of our collaborative work is the fusion between the clear structure of architectural photography and the ambiguity of portrait photography.

This website aims to give you an insight into exactly how we work. Side by side, with completely different perspectives, but the same vision – authentic precision.

We live in Munich, Dublin, Donegal and work internationally.

I discovered my passion for architecture photography while studying at The Academy of Photography in Munich. I approach my work as an aesthetic analysis – a visual deconstruction of the function of architecture. The components of a three-dimensional structure are disassembled, studied, brought in context to each other and visually presented in a two-dimensional form.

I studied photography at IADT in Dublin and at The Academy of Photography in Munich. I understand my photography as a continuous study of the human condition. How the difference from one breath to the next or even the slight movement of the sitters hand can have an impact on the core assertion of a portrait, has always fascinated me. I find the concentration of the camera on the subject isolates a transient moment to allow contemplation of the complexity of banal situations and visually interprets the sitters interior monologue.
