Paula & Dave – Oblates Inchicore & Summerhill House Hotel

Kevin — Sat, 05 May 2012 11:15:38 +0000

Friday 4th was a bit of a trip down memory lane for me. Paula & Dave got married in the Oblates in Inchicore, where, 85 years ago, my Dad started his 8 (yes 8 !!) years as an altar boy, its was also the destination for years of Sunday afternoon walks with my mam so it was nice to be there again after many years. The weather forecast was a bit foreboding but it managed to stay bright enough for a few pics in the church grounds before we headed off to Wicklow to the lovely Summerhill House Hotel. The hotel looked as great as usual, and again, the weather played ball, giving us enough dry time to get a quick session of family pics in the gardens. It was a pleasure to be part of such a nice day and Paula & Dave were one of the most laid back and relaxed couples I have dealt with. See the slideshow below for a selection of images from the day.

Sophie & Stephen – Horetown House and Johnstown Castle

Kevin — Sat, 28 Apr 2012 14:25:40 +0000

Friday 27th saw me head off down to the sunny south east and thankfully the rain & winds which had been with us for days cleared up. With two fab venues a friendly, relaxed and fun couple and good weather it all fell nicely into place. Kate and her staff at Horetown were very welcoming and got on my good side immediately by offering me coffee, so, caffeined up, I took a stroll around the lovely gardens and the beautifully laid out marquee. After a few shots of the preparations it was off to Johnstown Castle where Rosie had the place looking stunning. I will be back there in September and am already looking forward to it. With a great sense of fun throughout the day the time flew which, to me, was the only problem, as, before we knew it, we were getting the family shots done just before the calling for dinner. I have a few photos from the day in the slideshow below, just click on the play tab (bottom right of the menu) for a look, (and a full screen option too) and, if you happen to know either Sophie or Stephen, feel free to leave a comment for them

Amy & Colin – 19 April, CityNorth Hotel

Kevin — Fri, 20 Apr 2012 13:12:10 +0000

You often hear couples talking about putting their own stamp on weddings – those little touches that are unique, well Amy & Colins wedding had quite a few. From the individually designed glasses Amy made for the few drinks at her mams, to reading her promises to Colin from her Iphone, and the bride wearing shoes and socks (albeit quite rock’n’roll blue suede shoes) there were plenty of firsts for me. All in all it was a great day and a pleasure to be involved with, the only problem for me was that fact that by the time the ceremony was over there was less than an hour to the official calling for the meal and we had to high-tail it from Citynorth Hotel to Gormanston College for a few quick photos, then on to Amys’ Aunts (real cool) house nearby and try get back to the hotel in time for a few family photos. I was like a cross between Taz & Speedy Gonzalez !! Luckily the helpful staff of the hotel held back on calling for the meal for a short while, and the hungry guests could help themselves to the Sweet Buffet prepared by Amy & Colin (and helped on the day by Custom Cakes). I have a few pics uploaded below so feel free to have a look.

IPPA Awards

Kevin — Tue, 17 Apr 2012 20:19:48 +0000

Its especially nice to get some recognition from your peers, the this end, I have been very fortunate since being awarded my Licentiate with the IPPA (Irish Professional Photographers Association) that many of my images have been awarded numerous crests in our annual competitions. Whereas most of my awards would be in the Wedding Reportage category, I have also received quite a few for Classical Wedding, Bridal Portraiture and also traditional portaits. At both the 2011 and 2012 annual awards I received certificates of excellence for my work and also was a finalist in the prestigious photographer of the year.

See attached slideshow for a small selection of my award winning images which will hopefully be added to over the coming years !!

Feedback – Testimonials

Kevin — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 08:37:57 +0000

Its always nice when couples take the time to thank you when they are happy with their wedding pics. See below for a small

selection of some of the nice comments received over the last couple of years.

Kevin, Just a quick note to say that we got your photographs. We are absolutely delighted with them and they are exactly what we wanted. They totally surpassed anything that we had hoped for. Thanks again for being so fantastic on the day and putting everyone at ease. Thanks also for doing it at such short notice! We will also be sure to pass your name on anyone we know looking for a great photographer. Thanks again
Susan & John

From the first time we spoke to Kevin from Australia we knew he was the man for us. Kevin listened to all our ideas and really understood the style of photographs we wanted for our wedding. Also he understood that the most important thing for us was to really capture the excitement and happiness of the day. Kevin had made every effort to ensure that he was familiar with our location and on the big day we hardly saw him. Kevin’s style is very unintrusive and relaxed and when we saw our photos all we kept saying was “I don’t remember Kevin being there for that” Kevin seemed to capture every moment from the main events to the sneaky smokes and swigs on champagne bottles. It was as if he was always in the right place at the right time. All we were left to do was enjoy our selves and that we did!
Honestly Kevin, you have truly surpassed all our wildest expectations and we will treasure our photos for ever, thanks to you.
Conor & Enika

Hi Kevin, sorry for delay! We got the pics and we love them. Showing them to whoever will look!! We both want to say thanks a MILLION!! The pictures are more than we could have hoped for and we LOVE them, You did a very special job!
Emma & Mark

Oh Kevin, I’m in floods of tears here, one word, WOW , thank you. They’re absolutely brilliant. You did an excellent job and we love the discs, layout and case. thanks again.
Lorraine & Keith

Hi Kevin just want to thank u for all u work that day. Im sharons sister and chief bridesmaid and I think I can say from all the family that u did an excellent job on Friday. The pictures we have seen so far are so beautiful and we feel u captured sharons day the exact way she wanted. U put us all at ease throughout the day and went above and beyond ur duties as a photographer. One example chauffeuring two of the bridesmaids when the car broke down. Once again thank u so much for ur hard work.
Christine O Neill

Hi Kevin. Just wanted to send you a quick note to say ‘Thank You’ for our gorgeous wedding album. Both myself and Roy love it. You did a great job at capturing our special day and we are absolutely delighted with how the pictures turned out and how well they are put together in the album. I would recommend you to anyone who is looking for a wedding photographer. Thanks again Kevin.
Sinead & Roy

Hi Kevin, After going through the disc last night I’m just dropping you a line to say we were absolutely delighted with the photos! We particularly loved the ones of the two of us on the grounds of Tulfarris, the landscape element came through so well which is exactly what we wanted. You were a pleasure to work with on the day and worth every penny. Wishing you every success in the future!
Lynne & Joe

Thank you so much Kevin for our beautiful photographs, we got way more enjoyment and memories than we ever hoped from our wedding album. You captured the uniqueness that was our wedding day perfectly. Thanks for making our day so special.”
Cathy & Tony

Fantastic photos Kevin. It was refreshing to have a photographer who did not “mess about” while trying to make sure everyone got photographed.
Maeve Cawley

Kevin is amazing. We wanted photos that captured the essence of our wedding in May rather than formal shots (although we had to have the obligatory few) and he blew us away with what he delivered. I remember saying during the day that I hadn’t actually seen Kevin take any shots, that’s how unobtrusive he is. He was a pleasure to deal with, prompt in replies,very reasonably priced and delivers photos that are truly amazing. We received a slideshow presentation CD yesterday and were almost in tears at how good the photos were. Kevin you have made a great day even more brilliant. Thanks so much for the fantastic photos.
Eilin & Dave

We were initially impressed with how quick Kevin responded to our email. He came to the house with no problems to show me his albums and talk about how he works. I loved the idea of relaxed picture taking with more time to enjoy the day with his friendly personality and reasonable prices we were sold!
Kevin was great on the day, we didn’t have to worry about anything and the photographs didn’t interfere with the flow or enjoyment of the day. We got our album quicker than anyone else we know who has got married recently and were delighted with the results. All in all he comes highly recommended!
Niamh & John

Hi Kevin as Sharon’s Mother i would like to thank you for the fantastic job you did on 17th even though the weather was gloomy the smile you captured on my daughters face was like the brightest sunniest way ever in the world Can’t wait to see rest of album Thank you again
Helen O Neill

Hey Kevin, just wanted to say how pleased we were with the album and other prints. We looked at them a few times already and they will definitely be cherished… Many thanks for all your help and will definitely be recommending your work, Best of luck in the future.
Bridget & Aidan

Hey Kevin, myself & Kieran are sitting here going through the photos and we love them ! Thank you so much. So unique & fun. You the man !! XX
Hazel & Kieran

Hi Kevin, “Like” just doesn’t begin to describe how we feel about the photos. We absolutely LOVE them. Thank you soooo much for doing such a fantastic job and being so good to us on the day! Thanks again!
Amanda & Glenn

Hi Kevin, it was great to get a good look at the photos, we are both delighted with how they worked out. Thank you so much for everything you did on the day and after. We would and will recommend you to anyone we know getting married. Thanks again for all your help.
Emma & Paul

Hi Kevin, Just to say thanks again for our album, we are delighted with it. The album is done beautifully and the framed pictures are gorgeous so thanks again for all your help and hard work.Will be in touch at a later date re, getting some pictures of the kids as we have very few of the two of them together and it would be nice to get them professionally done. To be honest I found seeing the finished album a little emotional hence I was probably quieter than usual last night and conscious today that maybe I hadn’t thanked you properly. I think we will even appreciate it more as they years go by and we have it to remind us of a very special day. Many thanks & talk to you soon.
Sharon & Anthony

Just a note to thank you again for the album.
It was an absolute pleasure to work with you. We were delighted with the end results and you made everything so easy on the day, which was so important to us. Every other wedding photographer we’ve encountered since has just confirmed how lucky we were!
Thanks again and best of luck for the future,
Nadine & Stephen
