 Carrick is such a fun town for Hen parties and there are Cruises available after your hen activity to make it extra special!
We can bring any of our themes to you: think Circus, Burlesque, Retro housewives, Pin-up, Sailor girls, Airhostess, Beach party or come as glam as you like!
These ladies laced up their corsets and were a treat to photograph in the apartments!

Ms R's Hen at the Bentley

Here are some snapshots of a recent shoot in the Bentley  (The Bentley Café Bar - Club - Live Venue ) in Galway.  Mark was the organizer of this hen party with Posh fizz Hens for his bud Rachel and I have to say they were a fun bunch! They posed along to their favourite tunes after an amazing makeover by Theresa Dahaher at Makeup flair , Roisin Derrane  and Makeup  and Susanne Dolan Makeup

The colourful 'Mocktails' which were kindly hand delivered by the Bentley staff were put to good use too in the shoot. 

We had lots of space to play around in this venue - it was great to see the lads getting stuck into the fun with the gang!

 

Popstars Hen party Galway!

I love it when a group of hens put huge effort into their outfits. This was the case with our popstars Hen party for Ms Kirana last summer . She was Madonna and all her buddies came as different pop stars. There was Lady gaga, katy perry, Spice Girls, Posh, Marilyn, Amy winehouse, cheryl, Jlo etc even a Miss piggy!.
We had a great shoot in the Victoria Hotel Galway and everything ran like clockwork under the careful planning of Jenni in Posh Fizz:  posh fizz on facebook
we had such a giggle posing along to the relevant tunes and they looked just fab - everyone got really into character.
Great idea as an icebreaker for your hen party as everyone has such a laugh at the costumes. It does not even have to be expensive to pull off! We provide several props for this theme - you can come in any costume that you like.

Eileens Hen!

When Eileen decided to have a hen party she wanted the theme to be 'Fab shoes'. I have to say I gasped when I saw her shoes as I had admired them once online and they looked so amazing on!  Tattoo style shoes!! The rest of the gang surprised her with this shoot and we played a little with the burlesque style before taking the group shots outside of their fab shoes and killer black dresses!
Makeup was done by the amazing Sandra Gillen on the day and the girls were delighted to be all glam for their impending night on the town of Galway.
A big thanks to the B+B Teach na Coiribe on the Tuam road who could not have been more accommodating to the hens and to us throughout the shoot. A highly recommended hen location.....

some of the amazing shoes on display!

The stunning bride to be! 

The organiser!! Ms A!

Donna's Hen

Donna got the surprise of her life recently when Amanda her trusty bridesmaid literally sprung a sunday morning shoot at their accommodation in Sligo! As I was informed that Donna always looks her best the girls said she would be well up for it. As you can see she certainly got into character and everyone was looking so glam (yes we are talking about the morning after the wild night before so well done on that one ladies! I was warned to airbrush out any eyebags but in all honesty they looked great to begin with!

                                                            Donna as a perfect pin-up girl!

Taken in the hotel bar! 

mama knows best!

Had great fun with this gang in the pillo  hotel in Galway. All the moms and aunts came too.

As they did not know what to expect I'm sure you can imagine their faces when they saw lots of 

kitchen props and rubber gloves. The moms got to reenact some fun scenes with the rolling pin and their

daughters (we all remember coming home late from the disco as a teenager ahem!)

We also got to use the luggage trolley and other props at our disposal for a great laugh! Well done

Maria for managing to keep it from the hen until I actually arrived!!! ;)

Hens hit Ennis in style

Joanne had her hen planned for her by her friend Sandra. Sandra managed this covert operation all the way from England! The girls were all kitted out by the time I got to them in funky wigs and accessories. I will never forget seeing a 'marge simpson' coming my way...brilliant!
After posing the girls on the bridge in Ennis and catwalking around Ennis - they enjoyed a nice afternoon of drinks outside (yes the sun came out!) and another night on the tiles. Yeehaw!

 Marge!!

Check out the girls in the reflection...:)

Working those wigs!

Bottoms up!!

Take that Tyra Banks!

Kate's Retro Housewives Hen!

Desperate housewives had nothing on this gang!  We had 8 hotties all dressed in retro outfits and I supplied the props and gloves. Kate our beautiful hen had a costume custom made for her which was a take on Katy perry's outfit in the hot and cold video! Brilliant! As with a lot of our hens she was surprised with this shoot by her lovely sister (Jenny from the block ;)) and I have to say the weather in Kenmare was just fab! Blessed. The Music was a lovely medley the girls had put together for Kate of dirty dancing and all sorts of rocking' tunes! It really does make it more fun and personal with these little extras. Makeup was done by Ann-Marie a native to the area in a pin-up style.   Here are some shots from the day.

Our Kate rocked it better!

Fun in the kitchen!

Sisterly love
