It was a day to remember in Cork, celebrating James & Shonagh’s big day at the luxurious Clayton Hotel Silver Springs. The couple exchanged vows in the hotel’s grand room, a stunning space perfect for such an elegant occasion. With the sun shining and a light breeze, everything felt just right. The day was filled with warmth, both in the weather and from the people celebrating with them.
After the ceremony, we made our way to Millennium Park for some light-hearted shots with the bridal party. The park provided the perfect backdrop of greenery and charm, capturing moments of pure joy and laughter. From there, James & Shonagh wanted something a bit different, so we headed to Cork City’s docks—a perfect spot for unique, urban-style portraits. The industrial feel of the docks was a great contrast to the earlier lush park shots, giving them a fantastic variety in their wedding album.
