Lost in Ireland

October 28, 2010 by weddingphotographerkerry

I was reading a travel article in the New York Times written by Matt Gross who allows himself to get lost in countries by not using any aids to help him find his way. So this week his article was on getting “Lost in Ireland” . It got me thinking on how many times I have gotten lost when I am checking out remote areas for wedding shots. I would consider just about anywhere off the M50 remote because the […]

Allowing Yourself to Shine…

October 18, 2010 by weddingphotographerkerry

I had an obscene amount of shots to edit from Eoin and Elva’s wedding, definitely more than I have ever had on any other wedding. I was trying to figure out why this was. As I went back through the polished shots, I realised that Elva was a woman who allowed herself to shine in every sense. She strutted up the aisle, guests applauded, she danced back down the aisle with Eoin, she beamed the biggest smiles you could ever […]

Serene Sisters

September 29, 2010 by weddingphotographerkerry

I just came across this shot that I had taken some time ago and I really like it. It is a photograph of the Sisters at the Presentation Convent in Tralee. At the time I was in the middle of shooting a wedding on the convent grounds so I only managed a brief chat before taking the photograph and then running back to my Bride and Groom… If anyone could tell me the names of the Sisters, I would be […]

Your Carriage Awaits…

July 29, 2010 by weddingphotographerkerry

I am pleasantly busy at the moment so I am just posting snippets of the people that I am photographing with more to follow, but for now this princess named Faith caught my eye last Saturday as she walked into the room to show the awaiting wedding party her stunning gown. Her pose says it all… The same lady had a pink dress lined up for the dance floor later! More from Myrna and Jamie’s wedding at the Sneem Hotel, […]

A Beautiful Pre-Wedding Portrait…

July 29, 2010 by weddingphotographerkerry

I photographed Tanis and Aidan in Tralee yesterday on the eve of their wedding. This shot struck me immediately as I opened it on my screen. I normally pick my photographs apart but there is nothing I don’t like about this one…

It’s Only Rain…

July 13, 2010 by weddingphotographerkerry

This is Ireland. It rains regardless of the fact that it is summer. This is never going to change, so go outside, get wet, enjoy it and come home knowing that you deserve a good, hot mug of Irish tea…

Family Portraits that I would like…

July 2, 2010 by weddingphotographerkerry

Like a Mechanic with a bad car I don’t own a Family Portrait. I intend to own one very soon, adorn it with a beautiful frame and start its life as a family heirloom on my new wall. I took these family portraits recently in Kerry. The immediate family, in-laws and grand kids all travelled from Dublin and beyond to celebrate their Parents wedding anniversary… A boy who is clearly proud of his Grandad.. One of my favourites… You couldn’t […]

Kerry Leaves Me Spoiled For Choice…

June 9, 2010 by weddingphotographerkerry

People say to me all the time that it is no wonder I get such great shots. I have places like Kenmare, Killarney, Sneem, Derrynane, Waterville, Dingle with mountains and sea at my disposal wherever I end up photographing a wedding in Kerry. I agree! I have an extensive and dramatic palette here to create great shots. Castlegregory was the location for the bridal portraits below.  We had great fun going to some less obvious spots including this one which was the […]
