Back in November I travelled up to Blacklion in Cavan for the wedding of Rachel & Dan. This was going to be a good one as the reception was in the stunning Markree Castle. After a quick stop at the local pub we headed up to Rachels grandads land (in an incident filled drive !) and then on to Markree in Sligo. Unfortunately the Sligo traffic put paid to my hopes of some outside shots in Markree so I was delighted we had a few in the bag. See below for a small selection of images from the day.
Received another lovely bit of feedback from one of my recent couples, well chuffed !! 🙂 – although it was hard to go wrong with the subjects, the location & the general fun on the day.
Hi Kevin,
Have just gone through all of our photo’s, they are all amazing!
You managed to capture so many moments as well as the finer details of our big day. The autumn colours look so vibrant they really are just out of this world.
Having you there was a dream, couldn’t recommend you highly enough. Deffo one of the best decisions we have ever made;)
Thanks again Jodi & Jono xxx
See below for a few pics from their day – hope you enjoy
Sometimes things just fall into place. When shooting Jodi & Jonathans wedding in the stunning surroundings of Kilshance House, we had a choice to make. While at the local church it was a case of greeting line or no greeting line, the weather was baltic so we decided to head back to the hotel. We pulled in down by the lake and the late evening light was coming through the tress which were in the height of their autumn colours. We managed to grab a few pics before the wind picked up, along with showers and we headed to the warmth of the open fires in Kilshane. We spent 15 mins taking photos in the forest, but, if we had have had a greeting line it would have been too dark & cold – the result………a selection of fab pics of the couple, one of which is below.
Just before Christmas I had the pleasure of shooting Mary & Denis’ wedding in the stunning Glasson Hotel & Country Club. The brief was simple, keep the posing to a minimum, and, with the day that was in it (sub-zero temperatures !!) that wasn’t too hard as the big fires & mulled wine kept the trips outside for photos down to a minimum. A long day, as I stayed for the first dance, but a very enjoyable & rewarding one.
Always nice when couples take the time to write – especially when it’s good news !!Received an email from Anita & Dave after they picked up their wedding photos
“Hi Kevin,
Received our photographs this morning and myself and David are delighted with them. You did such an amazing job, thank you so much, you really captured the day.
Best wishes,
Anita & David”
Now that my trumpet has been blown – see below for a small selection of images from their day – hope you enjoy 🙂
On the day of the wedding I do my very best to fit in with the plans & times of each bride & groom. The only timescale I really try to keep is to make sure I arrive at the ceremony location at least 30 mins early. There are a number of reasons for this, check the lighting, check out the set-up (musicians / videographers), chat with the celebrant in regard to whats happening, and, most importantly, when it’s a church wedding, to chat with the priest and agree where I am allowed to go. Some priests only let you in the aisle, while others give you free reign, but it’s so important to know in advance – planning like this can result in some lovely images without being obtrusive.
