As a destination wedding photographer, I like to provide my clients with bridal inspiration and build relationships with other creatives in the wedding industry so that when my clients ask me for recommendations I am able to point them in the right direction. This shoot was by far the biggest and best to date!
Read MoreThis super romantic Lissanoure Castle wedding has finally hit the blog! Although I’ve been teasing about it on my Instagram, you just have to see the full gallery - it's a mix of documentary wedding photography, romantic, airy images, candid family shots and beautiful wedding portraits at a stunning Irish Castle. It's a great combination of traditional Irish wedding and a modern approach to it - an old venue but a super relaxed couple up for anything. The kind of weddings I love to photograph!
Read MoreI take time away from my personal trips to shoot couples abroad because it brings value both to me and to the couple. As mentioned in my previous blog post with Alessandra & Daniel's engagement photos on the Brooklyn Bridge, shooting at 7 am or earlier is really nothing new for me. I commit to these experiences and get amazing photos in return. Central Park is now one of my favourite places to photograph in NYC - it has amazing light, greenery, historical vibe to it and it's a great place for a relaxed, low key engagement photo shoot.
Read MoreAs a destination wedding photographer based in Northern Ireland, I really try to live up to my status and take every opportunity abroad and turn it into a magical experience for all of my couples. I love exploring together, looking for new angles, light and sometimes, I even love those busy tourist places where we have to start shooting at 7 am to get clear photos and fabulous light. I really do. It's all part of the experience, both mine and my couples.
Read MoreGolden hour light looks magical in any place whether it’s a wedding in the Irish countryside or in Morocco. It’s often called ‘magic hour’ because of its ability to create stunning portraits and makes a whole lot of difference to any images. It’s when the light is the softest, the most flattering and the most romantic and super easy to work with.

Read MoreHello, Lovelies! I'm coming to you today with an interview with Tara Fitzgerald from Planned by Tara, who's an Irish wedding planner in Malta! I've known Tara online for a few months now, as a destination wedding photographer I'm a member of her supplier forum & I we follow each others Instagram accounts (that's a big one, right?! :D). I approached her about this interview and I'm so happy she said yes - 2018 has been the best so far for making connections with vendors and creatives all over the place, and it's all for the benefit of my brides! I love the fact that Tara so relatable - she was a destination bride herself once, she loves to travel & she's committed to making your day as stress-free as possible.
Tara explains why hiring a good planner for your destination wedding will make everything much easier & shares her tips about weddings in Malta. We teamed up to give you some guidance & insights on getting married abroad because so often brides would feel pinned down to get married at home thinking there is no other option. With little encouragement and a smaller budget (!), they could be married off on a beautiful island and have a wedding day of their dreams.
