lyrath estate wedding

by

So excited to be sharing this wedding on the blog. Siobhan & Kerril had one of those days where everything fell nicely into place. The fab Lyrath Estate was the venue, the weather behaved and when I arrived I was delighted to meet both Leanne from Vow to Wow hairstylist & Dawn from Glamour by Dawn (the local dream team !!) so I knew the girls would be in safe hands. Both Siobhan & Kerril were so great to work with, no fuss, laid back and most importantly – ready to kiss on command !!! I really enjoyed being part of their big day and was delighted with how the final photos turned out with one of them winning an award with the IPPA / Bank of Ireland photographer of the yer 2017. Hope you enjoy the images below.

So that’s another year in the can. Many thanks to everyone who put their trust in me for their big day, I met so many great couples, warm & welcoming families and my fair share of slightly mad bridesmaids and there was never a dull moment. I got to visit some new venues this year as well as revisit some old favourites. We really have some stunning venues throughout the country and such hardworking staff to ensure the day goes without a hitch (apart from one major one !!!)
A large percentage of my weddings come from referrals, so I also get the added bonus of meeting up with lots of previous couples at their friends weddings. I am extremely grateful for all referrals – they are the bookings that always mean the most.
This coming year is looking bright with a few more new venues along with meeting some families for the second (and third !!) times. I am fairly tied up through to the end of August with just a few select dates available, September through to November has better availability but the far side of Christmas up to NYE is booked out.
If you would like your photography to be relaxed, unobtrusive but with a bit of the WOW factor thrown in why not drop me a line to check availability.

For the month of January I am running a special, for all weddings booked & deposit paid. Book a standard digital package and receive a free upgrade to a deluxe USB presentation box which includes 100 6*4 inch photos from your day carefully selected to create your personal storyline. Book any standard album package and get a free album upgrade from 30 to 40 pages. This is only applicable for January bookings, but can be applied to 2017 and 2018 weddings. Details of package & prices are available through the website.

See below for a selection of images from throughout the year – not a best of nor a collection of favourites, just a few images that sum up my style of photography and how I try to balance the small moments with stunning wedding images.

Winter weddings are not always dark & damp affairs, very often the days are crisp and, with the early sunsets (and if you know what you are doing !!) you can create wonderful warm images. We had limited time at Lyrath Estate during Eimear & Williams wedding, but, with the sun playing ball, and a bit of know-how, we came up with this shot and I quite like it.
