Funky, Green VW Van…

February 18, 2011 by weddingphotographerkerry

A very quick post before I sign off and get my butt in gear for the Kerry Wedding Show this Sunday.. This is a shot from Ciara and Damien’s wedding which was on a very cold but dry day in January. It was excellent weather for me mainly because I wasn’t the one wearing the sleeveless dress. I also had the most perfect cloud cover in the sky to produce even, soft light on the skin of Ciara and Damien. […]

When Do You Start Seeing Things Differently?

January 19, 2011 by weddingphotographerkerry

I took these shots at my Parents house quite recently, during the damp, murky weather. Living on a farm, there is always somewhere to wander in all seasons. I have been looking at the same garden, fields, sheds all my life, but two months ago my brain suddenly absorbed what amazing textures and colours there are in stuff that is left to live its own life, remaining untouched. You see, my parents are not into pruning and preening hedges to […]

Miss Bossy Boots in Action…

January 6, 2011 by weddingphotographerkerry

I was kindly given this photograph, taken by a wedding guest at Jamie and Myrna’s wedding. So now I know what I look like when I am giving orders. It’s not very pretty. Mind you, this photograph was taken at my only truly vocal time of the wedding day, when I need to herd (encourage) the wedding guests into one big group. It is not a major problem to do this, but boy are you wasting your time if you […]

One More Dramatic Kiss…

November 23, 2010 by weddingphotographerkerry

I am trying to meet a deadline but really wanted to share this shot with you. I mentioned Niamh & Tom in an earlier post on their rainy day wedding. Well I have just edited another one of their shots which I really love. This was shot within seconds of rain falling on us. Kerry is such a beautiful county but boy does it rain a lot. I can still say, hand on my heart, that it is THE best […]

Photogenic Kissing-The Ultimate Guide to Wedding Photograph Kisses…

November 21, 2010 by weddingphotographerkerry

Whether you are getting married or not, November is a time when we could all do with some extra hugs and kisses so why not practice some photogenic kissing… Rule One – Do not pout like a trout! Partners lips should be just touching and not protruding or squashed against each other. Rule Two – Do not have a collision of noses going on! Tilt your heads in opposite directions so that you fit together comfortably. Rule Three – Feel […]

When my Wedding Photograph Plan does not go to Plan…

October 29, 2010 by weddingphotographerkerry

The landscape shots from my last post were a result of research done for Niamh & Tom’s wedding which was happening in Lispole. I felt great excitement at the potential for their shots. Visually I knew exactly what I was aiming for. Well to get to the point, none of this happened. It rained sporadically throughout the day and in fact every time I even suggested we put a toe outside the door of the church, the clouds would systematically […]

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 […]

Going Wild in Sneem..

October 12, 2010 by weddingphotographerkerry

Crazy busy at the moment but I had to post this shot of Elva and Eoin who came from Dublin to get married in Sneem. They have a huge appreciation for this part of Kerry so I really wanted to do justice to the beautiful landscape and to their sense of excitement about it. I am in the middle of editing Elva and Eoin’s wedding and believe me there are many more gems to be posted over the coming week..

Back to Ballyseede Castle..

October 1, 2010 by weddingphotographerkerry

You may have seen Tanis & Aidan’s wedding pre-shoot pics in an earlier post. Well here are the wedding pics taken at the great Ballyseede Castle in Tralee. There are many great shots that I would have liked to feature from this wedding but I have narrowed it down to the most animated ones. Great expressions and real sentiment are my priority to create a good wedding shot but it is not always easy to come by. Some families are […]
