Wedding Photography Collections
Choose the coverage that feels right for your day.
Weddings don’t all run to the same timetable, and I don’t think photography should feel like it does either. These collections simply give you a starting point, from a smaller celebration to the full story of the day. Whichever you choose, I’ll photograph it in the same relaxed, natural way.

The album I keep coming back to
A wedding album should feel as good as the photographs inside it.
Forever and Eternity include a handcrafted 30 × 30cm / 12 × 12" wedding album, designed around up to 80 photographs from your day. You’ll have a choice of finishes, but if you ask me which one I’d choose, I’ll nearly always point you towards the Acrylic Prestige.
The crystal-clear acrylic cover gives the photograph real depth and the lay-flat design lets the story flow beautifully across the page. It feels substantial without being fussy, and it’s exactly the kind of album I want my couples to still be taking down from the shelf years from now.
No long wait afterwards
See a little of it while it still feels fresh.
I aim to share a small selection of sneak peeks as soon as I can after your wedding. If I’m not photographing another wedding the following day, that can often mean the very next day. Your complete gallery is delivered within 4–6 weeks, although, as many of my reviews mention, it’s often considerably sooner.
Your photographs are yours to keep
Download them. Back them up. Keep them safe.
Your private online gallery makes it easy to view, share and download your photographs in high resolution. Intimate and Moments galleries remain online for 3 months, while Memories, Forever and Eternity galleries remain online for 6 months. You can download as often as you like while your gallery is live. Once it arrives, I always recommend downloading the complete collection and keeping at least one extra backup somewhere safe, as the online gallery isn’t intended as permanent cloud storage.
Make it yours
Enhance Your Collection
Start with the collection that suits your day, then add only the things that genuinely matter to you. There’s no need to squeeze your wedding into a package just because that’s how the price list was written.
Talk to Me About Your PlansCapturing a Whisper Between Human and Horse – Award-Winning Wedding Photography in Ireland
There’s a reason people fall in love with weddings in Ireland. The wild countryside, the rolling green hills, the stone walls that have stood for centuries — and sometimes, the unexpected visitors that bring a little extra magic to the day.
For John and Sally’s wedding, that unexpected guest was a horse. What happened in those few quiet minutes of portraits went on to win two Wedisson Awards in August 2024, but more importantly, it became one of those stories you never forget.
The Magic of Irish Wedding Portraits
Every wedding day has its whirlwind — the morning prep, the ceremony, the hugs and handshakes after, and the buzz of the reception building. That’s why I always carve out time with my couples for a few portraits in between. It’s a breather, a chance to step away and just be with each other.
For John and Sally, that escape led us into the Irish countryside. We found ourselves walking along an old stone wall, soft light falling through the trees, with the calm you only get in rural Munster.
And then it happened.
A Whisper Between Human and Horse
Out of nowhere, a horse poked its head over the wall. No fuss, no noise — just a gentle presence. Sally reached out instinctively, running her hand down its nose. As I lifted my camera, the horse closed its eyes. The air felt still, almost sacred, like a whisper between human and animal.
It wasn’t staged, it wasn’t planned, and that’s why it was perfect. These are the kinds of moments you don’t script. They unfold naturally, and when they do, it’s a privilege to capture them.
The Irish landscape framed it all: soft greens, old stone, the calm of countryside silence. In that instant, the photo wasn’t just about a bride and groom. It was about connection — with each other, with nature, with the moment.
A Horse’s Blessing
Not long after, John leaned in and kissed Sally. The horse stayed, watching from the background as though it had given its blessing. To me, it felt like nature itself was a guest at the wedding, quietly approving.
Those images became two of my proudest captures. Not just because of how they looked, but because of what they represented: love, calm, and a touch of Irish magic.
The Wedisson Award Recognition
When I entered these photos into the Wedisson Awards, I had no expectation. Photographers from all over the world submit thousands of images each month. The standard is incredibly high, and to even place is something special.
Winning two awards in August 2024 felt surreal. It wasn’t just recognition of a technically strong photo — it was proof that honest, unscripted moments resonate with people everywhere.
For those who don’t know, Wedisson is an international wedding photography competition that celebrates the world’s best wedding photographers. To have my work stand out on that stage is humbling, and I’m proud that it came from a moment as simple and real as this.
Why These Moments Matter
Awards are nice, of course. But for me, it always comes back to the couple and the story of their day. It’s the unscripted laughter, the quiet hand squeezes, the stolen glances — and yes, even a curious horse showing up in the middle of portraits.
That’s what I aim to capture: the soul of the day. Photos that, when you look back years from now, make you feel the moment all over again.
As an Irish wedding photographer, I’ve learned that it’s not about chasing perfection. It’s about being present, ready for the unexpected, and creating images that feel alive.
Planning Your Own Wedding in Ireland
If you’re planning a wedding in Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Clare, or Wexford, know that the landscape itself becomes part of your story. From Gougane Barra’s lakeside chapel to the gardens of Vienna Woods Hotel or the riverside calm at Ferrycarrig, every venue has its own magic.
And sometimes, just sometimes, nature will step in with a surprise you’ll never forget.
Thank You
To John and Sally — thank you for trusting me with your day and for embracing that unexpected guest with such warmth. And to Wedisson, thank you for recognising the value of those quiet, fleeting moments.

The Moments You Couldn't Plan
Why Natural Moments Make Some of the Best Wedding Photos
When I look back at John and Sally's encounter with the horse, the photograph is brilliant, but the reason I love it has very little to do with posing or planning. It simply happened.
Nobody could have organised it. I couldn't have asked the horse to wander into exactly the right place, and I certainly couldn't have recreated their reaction to it. My job was to see what was happening, be ready for it and take the photograph.
That's a huge part of how I photograph weddings. I'm always watching. A glance between two people, somebody bursting out laughing, a child doing something completely unexpected, the wind catching a veil, or an animal deciding it wants to become part of the wedding. Those little moments can disappear in seconds.
I Don't Photograph Every Moment the Same Way
I sometimes get described as a documentary wedding photographer, and documentary photography is definitely at the heart of what I do. But I've never wanted to squeeze every photograph into one style.
Some moments need absolutely nothing from me. I leave them alone and photograph them exactly as they happen.
Other photographs need a little direction. If I've found incredible light, a dramatic landscape or something interesting in the architecture, I'll use it. I'll put you in the right place, give you enough direction to make the photograph work, and then let the two of you be yourselves.
I don't walk into a wedding with a list of poses I need to recreate. I look at what's in front of me and decide what kind of photograph it deserves.
Ireland Gives You Plenty to Work With
Sometimes the Weather, Landscape or Light Changes Everything
Photographing weddings in Ireland teaches you fairly quickly that there is no point trying to control everything.
The weather changes. The light changes. The wind arrives at exactly the wrong moment and occasionally turns out to be exactly what the photograph needed.
I spent around 25 years photographing landscapes before weddings became my world, and that still has a huge influence on the way I see a scene. Sometimes the couple should fill the photograph. Sometimes they should be tiny in the frame with Ireland doing the heavy lifting around them.
You don't need perfect blue skies to make a great wedding photograph. Give me interesting light, a bit of weather and two people enjoying themselves and I'll happily work with that.
“The style follows the moment.
The moment is never forced to follow a style.”
Your Wedding Isn't a Photoshoot
Of course we'll make time for photographs of the two of you. We'll get the family photographs. If I see an opportunity for something creative, dramatic or completely different, I'll tell you.
But I'm not interested in taking you away from your wedding for hours while everybody else is having the craic without you.
I work quickly. We make the photographs worth making, have a laugh doing it, and get you back to your family and friends. Then I go back to watching for all the things you didn't even realise were happening.
