Wedding Photography Services in Cork, Kerry & Across Ireland
Your wedding is more than a date in the diary. It’s a story — full of nerves, laughter, music, and moments you’ll never want to forget. My job isn’t just to take photos, it’s to preserve those memories so you can relive them for years to come.
When couples ask what I “offer,” I tell them this: I don’t just offer photos. I offer peace of mind, fun on the day, and a story told with honesty and heart.
This page will walk you through the services I provide, how I work, and what you can expect from me before, during, and after your wedding day.
Full-Day Wedding Photography
Most couples choose full-day coverage, which starts in the morning and runs through to the first dance (and often beyond, when the dance floor fills and the craic is flying).
What that really means:
Morning prep — laughter in the kitchen, last-minute nerves, details like the dress, flowers, and cufflinks.
The ceremony — every look, every tear, the first kiss, and the walk back down the aisle.
Group photos — quick, fun, and efficient so you get back to the celebrations.
Couple portraits — relaxed, natural photos of just the two of you, in stunning light and locations.
Speeches — reactions, belly laughs, and those priceless “caught-off-guard” moments.
Evening party — first dance, singing waiters, dance floor madness, and all the craic that comes with it.
Your wedding isn’t a checklist. It’s a story — and I’ll make sure no chapter is missed.
Half-Day & Small Weddings
Not every wedding is a 12-hour marathon. Many couples choose smaller, more intimate celebrations.
If you’re planning a registry office wedding in Cork city, an elopement in Gougane Barra, or a small dinner with family and friends in Kenmare — I’ll tailor my coverage to suit.
You’ll still get all the emotion, storytelling, and natural style, just without the full-day structure.
Elopement Photography in Ireland
Elopements have exploded in popularity, and for good reason. There’s something magical about saying “I do” on a cliff in Dingle, beside a lake in Killarney, or in the quiet of Gougane Barra.
With elopements, there’s no rush, no huge timeline, no stress. Just the two of you, and a chance to create photos that feel deeply personal.
I know the best hidden spots across Cork, Kerry, Clare, and Limerick, and I’ll help you plan timings so the light works in your favour. Whether you’re travelling from abroad or keeping it low-key in Munster, elopements are a service I absolutely love to provide.
Engagement Photography
Think of this as a warm-up act. Engagement shoots are a brilliant way to get comfortable in front of the camera before the wedding day.
We’ll head to a location you love — the cliffs near Kinsale, a beach in West Cork, or the wild Kerry mountains — and spend an hour just hanging out. You’ll laugh, chat, and forget the camera is even there.
By the time the wedding comes around, you’ll feel completely at ease. Plus, you’ll have a set of relaxed, romantic photos to mark your engagement.
Albums & Prints
Your photos deserve more than a USB stick.
I design bespoke albums that are handmade, timeless, and built to last. They’re not just coffee table books — they’re keepsakes that can be passed down through generations.
Albums can be customised with leather, linen, or fine art finishes. You choose your favourite images, I create the design, and together we build something that reflects your style.
I also offer fine art prints and wall art, because there’s nothing like walking into your home and seeing your favourite photo on the wall.
Destination Weddings
Not every couple keeps it local. I’ve photographed weddings in Spain, Lanzarote, and beyond. Destination weddings are an adventure — new light, new locations, new energy.
If you’re planning to bring your family and friends abroad, I’ll be there to capture it. From welcome drinks to late-night parties, I’ll document the whole trip.
Travel costs are always discussed upfront, and packages are flexible so you can choose what works best for you.
Why Couples Book Me
It’s not just about the photos. Couples book me because:
I bring energy, craic, and calmness when you need it most.
I’ve got 125+ five-star reviews from couples across Cork, Kerry, and Ireland.
I know the venues, the weather, and the tricks for handling Irish light.
I deliver sneak peeks within a week and full galleries soon after.
I treat every wedding like it’s the only one that matters — because for you, it is.
Clear Pricing
Wedding photography shouldn’t be confusing. My packages range from €850–€2550, covering everything from small weekday weddings to full-day coverage with albums and a second photographer.
Every couple gets:
A personal consultation before the wedding.
Full-resolution digital images delivered online.
Sneak peeks within a week.
A secure online gallery to share with family and friends.
Options for albums, prints, and extras.
No hidden costs. No last-minute add-ons. Just clear, simple pricing.
The Experience
Booking your photographer shouldn’t feel like a transaction. It should feel like you’ve found someone you actually want around on your wedding day.
When you book me, here’s what you get:
Before the wedding – calls, messages, and planning help. I’ll answer every question and guide you through timelines.
On the day – calm energy, plenty of craic, and a professional who knows when to blend in and when to step forward.
After the wedding – sneak peeks, your full gallery, album design, and memories that will last a lifetime.
Final Word
Photography is one of the few things that lasts beyond the day itself. The food is eaten, the flowers fade, but the photos stay.
If you’re looking for someone who’ll not only capture your wedding but make the experience enjoyable from start to finish, I’d love to hear from you.
This isn’t just about photos. It’s about people, moments, and memories — and that’s the service I provide.
