wedding photography

Let’s face it, not everyone likes being in front of the camera, especially on your wedding day when you want to mingle with your family & friends and not spend all day hanging out with your photographer !!

I specialise in stress free photography, less of the stiff poses and more of a documentary style of photos. Blending into the background I capture the day as it unfolds and while we still get all the “must have” shots alongside some timeless couple shots, it’s all done with the minimum of fuss giving plenty of time for couples to chill with their guests and enjoy their day.

See below for just a few lines of feedback from happy couples.

“We didn’t even realise some of these photos were being taken, you were so natural and not intrusive at all” Vanessa & Dan

“He managed to capture the essence of our day perfectly, all while being invisible !!” Amy & Richelle

“Thank you so much for the amazing photography and thank you for being so easy-going and relaxed”. Aileen & Colm.

“Thanks again for the way you approached the day and for the way you made everyone so comfortable & relaxed.” Niamh & Greg

“It was only when we saw the photos that we realised he had a birds eye view and caought so many of the candid moments, he put us all at ease and was great to have around on the day” Helena & Joe

Was delighted to be back at the Stephouse in Borris for the wonderful day when Aisling & Alan tied the knot. Both Aisling & Alan were getting ready in the village, the ceremony was in the hotel and the gardens provided a beautiful autumn backdrop for the photos. Such a nice, welcoming and laid back couple with an easy brief, not too much posing, not too much fuss, capture the day as it unfolds, perfect for my style.

I was so happy to hear back from them :

“We were absolutely delighted with the photos and you managed to get everything we asked for. The photos weren’t too posed which is exactly what we wanted. You were discreet the entire day and very patient with us when we were distracted with our guests.  The whole day from start to finish went so smoothly!”
Aisling & Alan

Three sisters, three weddings !! As with all wedding suppliers, good reviews are our lifeblood, but even better are recommendations to friends or family. I figure I must be doing something right as after Siobhan received her photos her sister Ciara quickly got in touch (a big fan of relaxed photos !!) followed by their other sister Paula. It was so lovely to shoot all the weddings (each one different from the next) and spend time with such a lovely family.

Even better, starting with Siobhan, due to recommendations to their group of friends, I shot another 13 weddings (at last count). I should be paying the Fannings commission !!!!

Charline & Romain travelled over from Brittany with their two children for a Celtic Ceremony in Brigits Garden, just outside Oughertard, Co Galway.

The west of Ireland can sometimes be unpredictable weatherwise but we had a stunning day. Blue skies and butterflies accompanied us for the ceremony in the stone circle with numerous blessings and old traditions it was a lovely afternoon. We then headed over the mountains to the town of Spiddal where the weather stayed dry but the clouds rolled in over Galway Bay giving us some moody images.

Despite the language barriers (my French leaves a lot to be desired !) we had a wonderful time together and I was delighted to hear back from them :

Hi Kevin!

Thank you very much for the link! the photos are amazing! We loved to remember these precious moments. Our trip in Ireland was exceptional and we will have great memories thank to you.

We’ll say hello to you if we’ll make a new trip in your country and I promise our English will be better!!!

Thanks thanks thanks!!!

Charline and Romain

What a wonderful day spent with such a lovely couple, topped off with being back at the Village Barn, one of the more unique venues in Ireland for weddings. Two fab brides, friendly and welcoming families and friends, relaxing and fun vibe all wrapped up in a quirky alternative venue – what more could you ask for ? How about a really nice review ??

“Kevin was a pleasure to deal with right from the beginning. We wanted our day to be as relaxed and stress free as possible and Kevin managed to fit in seamlessly. He managed to capture the essence of our day perfectly all while being invisible! (Even when being attacked by a swarm of bees) We are still in awe of the finished photos and also still scratching our heads wondering how he managed to take some of the photos with no one knowing he was around. A true professional and amazing artist”

Aileen & Colms wedding took me away over to the Wild Atlantic Way, I had shot in the Diamond Coast but never visited Aughris and it’s always good to have a first !! I will definitely call back to Aughris, the Beach Bar was an absolute gem of a place.

Their brief was easy, lots of documentary style, fly on the wall photography of people having fun & enjoying their day, just my style so I was in my element.

From the moment I arrived till I left after the dancing I was made feel so much at home, at times I felt more like a guest than a photographer.

I was delighted to hear back from Aileen & Colm recently and so happy that they were so pleased with their photos.
