Have been quiet on here for the last while as work has me swamped (a great complaint !!). May is traditionally my busiest month between weddings, communions & confirmations and now I can focus on editing and sending out the remaining weddings from the last few months.
Once again, over the last 5 months, I realised how lucky I am to do what I do. Not only do I love photography, but I have met some wonderful, friendly & quirky couples…..and don’t get me started on the bridesmaids !! I have also worked with old colleagues from the wedding industry, visited some new venues, called back to familiar ones and taken bookings for some potentially really exciting weddings.
As I have said in previous posts, my “mission” on the day is to create stunning, artistic images, along with informal shots capturing the atmosphere – all the while making it as painless and smooth a process as possible, giving each couple plenty of time to mingle with their friends & family. If that sounds like what you want for your big day just drop me a line through the contact page and we can take things from there.
In the meantime, see below for a small selection of a few of the weddings so far – hope you enjoy 🙂
My 2015 weddings were wrapped up on a wet & windy 31st December in the warm & cosy Trim Castle Hotel. Many, many thanks to all those couples who put their trust in me for their big day, I met so many wonderful couples, friendly families and slightly bonkers bridal parties there was never a dull moment. I got to revisit some favourite reception venues, and even discovered a few new ones (after 10 years that’s an achievement !!). I also got to meet a lot of familiar faces at weddings during the year courtesy of their recommendations for which I am extremely grateful, all bookings are great, but bookings based on referrals are especially nice. Looking ahead to 2016 there are only a select few dates available up to mid-August, with a bit more in terms of availability through to the end of December.
See below for a selection of images from throughout the year, not a “best of” nor a “favourites” gallery, just a compilation of images which reflect my style –Â informal, relaxed, with, where possible, a bit of the wow factor sprinkled in. I am often asked if I do family shots, and yes, of course I do, but my preference is to capture the unposed moments, the laughs, the hugs, the mad friends and build up a balanced and emotional story of the day rather than just a selection of poses.
Here’s to a great year 🙂
Lets face it, a wedding in Ireland at any time of the year is not guaranteed good weather. On the 28th December Ballymagarvey village looked stunning for the wedding of Fiona & Kevin but unfortunately the weather let us down with heavy winds and rain showers. We did however catch a break with a 15 min dry spell and we used what we could to create some lovely images. This one is one of my favourites, shot through a Christmas tree and its fairy lights – hope you like it 🙂
It was hard to go wrong shooting Rachael & Collies wedding – such a lovely couple, slightly giddy, great venue and even the torrential rain stopped so we could get a few outside pics. Even though, it was still a huge feeling of relief when I heard back from them 🙂
“Thank you Kevin for our beautiful wedding photos. You captured the day perfectly and we are delighted to have so many memories of our big day. You were a pleasure to work with from beginning to end and we will be recommendi
Well chuffed to receive these lovely words from Conni & Trevor – to be honest, it was relatively easy for me on the day as it was a “perfect storm” where everything fell bang into place, I had a blast 🙂
Absolutely LOVE our wedding photos. Really captured wonderful moments of the day which we were oblivious to. So happy with them, thank you so much Kevin. You made us all feel so at ease, and really fit into the day. It was just like hanging out with a friend for the day, so accommodating and helpful with any photos we wanted, yet were barely noticed hanging a few feet back capturing those candid shots too.
Thank you so much!
Conni & Trevor Murray
