A few words from Donal.

I set up my freelance photography business -Hackett Photography, some years ago now. I am based in Sligo but operate on a national scale. I cover a wide range of photography that includes portraiture photography, Engagement shoots, Weddings, and all social occasions. I specialize in Portraits (Headshots) and Commercial/Corporate Photography.            

My database of Sligo landscape scenic images is extensive and I find a huge demand for these prints, especially around holiday time as landscape photographs have become a very popular gift for loved ones.

I am so proud to say that a number of these images have been published in national and international campaigns such as Yeats 2015 campaign and the prestigious European Purple Flag safe city campaign. I have a comprehensive collection of photographic equipment which I am constantly updating and have of course employed the latest in drone technology to my haul of equipment. I am very proud of my work and have received some significant recognition such as a national award for -best action shot- in the Sligo Champion for an image taken at the 2014 HSE Community games. Commercially I work on a regular basis with a number of well-known companies listed above and very much enjoy my continued success with them. My flexible and professional approach to photography only enhances further my motto of - endeavoring always to satisfy my customer’s needs- As well as the photographic services, I also offer outstanding Photoshop and editing skills should any of my costumers require images for advertising or other promotional campaigns.
