city wedding

by

My last wedding of 2020 was such a great day. Held during Covid restrictions Derrick & Emma were a joy to work with. Not only did they look uber-cool, they didn’t mind the rain or trekking across the city for some great street shots as well as visiting a few hidden gems for a picture perfect afternoon. This day proved that small weddings can be such wonderful days, and also that my home city of Dublin can provide fab backdrops for photos if you know your way around. “We would like Christmas shots, some city shots and most importantly shots with Bonnie (their dog)” – a simple brief made the day a breeze. With the ceremony in the great City Hall we had easy access to a few hidden walks as well as a planned route up towards Stephens Green to take in the lights. Hopefully the shots below can give you an idea of the day and perhaps some inspiration if you are planning a small celebration. Enjoy 🙂

Covid ensured that 2020 was a tough year for all, not least the wedding industry. Lots of couples faced the prospect of postponing their weddings, many faced not one, but two cancellations but through it all, love found a way.

Throughout the latter half of the year there was a dramatic rise in more intimate ceremonies, some with as few as 6, some with 25 and what wonderful celebrations they were.

My last wedding for 2020 was when Emma and Derrick tied the knot in City Hall Dublin, we took a few shots while walking through the city streets and finished off at the Schoolhouse on Northumberland Road where they were having a family meal in lovely surroundings. It was a great way to sign off on a not so great year !!

Getting married in the autumn (fall) can be a fantastic time. Country lanes, city parks and even hotel grounds are awash with wonderful colours. These three shots were taken in three such locations, one outside a hotel lobby at night, the other along a pathway to a ruined abbey and the third one taken in a Dublin city park, a stones throw away from the hustle & bustle of the busy streets. Yes, there might be the possibility of rain, but with an Irish wedding you are going to have that possibility year round !!! You should check out how relaxed each couple is in the photos, we pride ourselves on providing stress free and relaxed photography with no compromise on quality.
