Many of my couples choose iconic locations around the county, including weddings near Killarney National Park and across the wider Kerry wedding venues landscape.

Calm, Flexible, and Easy to Work With

No two Kerry weddings run the exact same way.

I adapt quietly, stay calm, and keep things moving without stress — even when plans change.

“James blended in so naturally that guests thought he was part of the wedding.”
Pamela Milner

I’m not one of those photographers who bosses you around all day or pulls you away from your own party.
That just isn’t my style.

About 95% of the day is candid.
The remaining 5% is split between bride and groom portraits, bridal party photos, and family photos — all kept short and broken up naturally.

I read the room quickly.
I’ll spot who brings the laughs, who’ll get emotional, and where the energy is.

I guide when needed, then I step back.
I chat with your guests, keep things relaxed, and capture what’s actually happening.

Even the photos people usually dread, I create a moment within them — real laughs, honest reactions.

Nothing is set in stone.
We can work together to photograph your wedding in a way that feels right for you.
