I was so looking forward to Siobhan & Frankies wedding. Shooting at Lough Rynn in the Autumn is a photographers dream, and Siobhan & Frankie were so easy to deal with and their vision for photography was the same as mine, relaxed, stress free and leave plenty of time for mingling. With lots of people in common (thanks to Confey GAA club) and previous couples in both bridal parties I felt at home straight away. The day flew by, a couple of showers reared their head but we still got out & about in the stunning grounds of Lough Rynn, back for a few family shots and still plenty of time for mingling with guests. A wonderful day spent in the company of a wonderful and welcoming couple as well as the slightly mad bridesmaids !!! Great fun made even better when I heard back from the happy couple :

One from the archives, but one that stays in the memory is Jane & Barrys big day at Horetown House. Such a happy wonderful day filled with laughter, tears and fabulous personal touches designed by the very talented Jane. From the vintage 20’s wedding dress, through to the stunning table plan it really was a photographers dream, add in one of my favourite venues, Horetown House, a warm welcome and neverending smiles and it really was a bit of a Carlsberg moment ! Hopefully the images below will give you a flavour of the day.
I was thrilled to be asked to photograph Katie & Nicks wedding, not only are they a fab couple, but my father actually shot the wedding of Katies grandparents – the circle of life.
I had met Katie & Nick when they were over from London planning their day and straight away I knew we were a great match. Relaxed and fun loving, if their day was to match their personalities we would be onto a winner – and so it proved !
On the day the weather was fab, the welcome sincere and the venue was just perfect. After the wonderful ceremony we grabbed a few shots outside and followed up with summer drinks in the walled garden.
The afternoon flew by in a haze of laughs, hugs and the occasional photo, and before we knew it the dance floor was filling up with earnest moves and disco grooves.
A fantastic day filled with fun, laughter and above all love. It was a privilege to be part of it and I was so happy to hear from them afterwards.
Hi Kevin,
With the current crisis dominating all our newsfeeds, I thought it would be nice to share a bit of love, and one of the happiest, “smiliest” weddings I shot last year. Christina & Christopher got married in Sligo, with a quick stop in Sligo IT, followed by Rosses Point Beach before we arrived back at the Radisson Blu, and the party rocked on into the night. With such a warm & welcoming couple and working alongside Pink Lime Studios for video the day went like a dream from start to finish. The beautiful scenery of the Sligo coast was the perfect backdrop for some stunning photos, and with Scruffy Duffy on entertainment and Harlequin providing the music the day moved from fun & chilled to chaos and laughter on the dance floor. What a wonderful day to be part of !
Was also thrilled to hear back from Christina & Christopher when they received their photos.
Morning Kevin,
Just wanted to say thank you so much for the wedding pics I got them yesterday. It was a late night last night going through them all and we absolutely loved them and the box they came in is just beautiful and something we will always have. Do not know how we are going to pick which ones to frame and which ones to use for the thank you cards I keep thinking I have found my favourite of ours and then I come across another.
Thanks so much for capturing our special day you snapped away in the background and we never even noticed you were there you did exactly what I wanted natural unposed shots of our natural unpolished selves
Thanks again for everything!!!
Warmest regards
Christina and Christopher Xxx
