My pride and joy, Parsley!
Hey, I'm Paula
I'm a wedding photographers based in Belfast and I am lucky to be working all over Northern Ireland, Ireland, UK & Europe.
I got into wedding photography after my best friend got engaged in 2014. I had cameras before, even run a travel blog (documenting all my hitchhiking trips around the Erope) but I never considered this to be my career. Would you believe that I made a decision to shoot weddings after seeing a video of an elopement in Iceland?!
Well, I really did and with that decison I joined Photo Society at Queens Uni in Belfast, photographed in auto mode for ages, learned to shoot on film cameras while studying, working part time & hustling like crazy I was eventually able to make a career.
As a photographer, I'm focusing on documenting your wedding day the best I can. I have recently graduated with a Masters Degree in Journalism, which helps to achieve that documentary style. That approach, however, doesn’t hold me back from chatting with your mum, smiling and being a part of your family for a day. Because I’m a people person. A discoverer, wanderer & doer.
My editing style is very natural, bright & airy, crisp & fresh.
Photography comes from my whole world and the inspiration I find in simple, everyday things. It is the way it is because of who I am. I’m connecting on a personal level with each and every couple and I truly put my heart and soul into work to make my couples happy.
When I’m not photographing weddings I’m probably travelling, eating a blow of pasta, redecorating our living room, gardening, watercolouring, learning a new language or baking. I’m definitely the most eclectic person in my family - I love all retro, long walks on the beach, Disney songs, GBBO & family heirlooms! I cherish every moment I’m able to capture on my camera and I absolutely LOVE my life. I’m so thankful for the career that I have and I adore each and every couple I have the opportunity to work with!
Apart from that, I own a rabbit called Parsley and oh boy, she’s one temperamental girl.
My work has been featured in the wedding blogs such as Love My Dress, French Wedding Style, B.Loved, The Promise & more.

That's my boyfriend Neil. We met at the Photo Society! He loves film cameras and has a great patience - to both me and his film cameras :)
