Why Choose JOD Photography?

So, why trust me to document one of the most important days of your life? Well, let’s just say, I’ve been training for this since I was old enough to hold a camera (and yes, I mean the big, clunky film cameras—not the digital ones that practically do the work for you).

Here’s the full story: I took up photography when I was 15, and it turned out I wasn’t half bad. In fact, I became the youngest-ever winner of the All-Ireland Photography Competition, much to the surprise of my parents lol and the entire school. I was photographing events at 16, reading books about photography ( because YouTube was not invented yet ) wondering what the heck all the buttons on the camera did lol. But I was obsessed, I didn’t know it back then, my teacher did, but I did not, but I had found my calling.

But let me give you a few more reasons to say “Yes” to JOD Photography:

1. Authentic Style

I specialize in candid, documentary-style photography—think natural light, unposed moments, and timeless edits that won’t look outdated by your fifth anniversary. Whether it’s sun-drenched cliffs in Kerry or the golden glow of a West Cork sunset, I know how to capture Ireland’s natural beauty (and make you look good in the process).

2. Local Expertise

Born and raised in Munster, I’ve spent years perfecting the art of photographing this stunning corner of Ireland. I know all the best spots, from hidden beaches in Ballycotton to castle ruins in Limerick that make for jaw-dropping backdrops. And if it rains—because let’s face it, it probably will—I know how to turn moody skies into magazine-worthy photos.

3. Seamless Experience

Ever had your shoes soaked while posing in a boggy field? I have (not my finest moment). That’s why I prioritize planning, so your day runs smoothly. From our first chat to your final album delivery, I handle every detail, letting you focus on enjoying the craic. Oh, and if you’re worried about getting the family to behave for portraits, I’ve got a tried-and-true trick: bribe the groomsmen with pints after the photos are done. Works every time.

4. A Photographer Who Actually Cares

I genuinely love weddings. There’s nothing like witnessing the quiet emotions of a first look at Adare Manor or the joyous chaos of the dance floor when the band kicks into top gear. To me, this isn’t just a job; it’s an honor to be part of your story. And if you need a tissue when those vows hit hard? I’ve got you covered, well I might have used them all up myself, but I will find you some. I take on a limited amount of weddings each year so that I can give each wedding and each couple the attention they deserve.

5. A Custom Touch for Every Couple

No two weddings are the same, so your photos shouldn’t be either. I take the time to understand what makes your relationship unique and tailor my approach accordingly. Want a mix of candid laughs and sweeping landscape shots? Done. Dreaming of moody, cinematic images on the Cliffs of Moher? Let’s go. Every woman has a side, let me know your side from the get-go, and I will photograph you from that side all day long lol.
