Who says you can’t bring your horse and dogs to your wedding…eh?
Umm….well in fact you can’t but that doesn’t mean they can’t make an appearance!
And so it was with Eadaoin and Tims’s wedding when we returned to Kilsharvan House for the reception.
There was Big Ears (the horse) and their two adorable boxers, Stella & Bear. Stella is wearing the bow…..just in case you were wondering…….
I shoot equestrian portraits and I also shoot weddings, but this was the first time I combined the two. In a word, lovely!
Eadaoin’s dress was from De Stafford Bridal
Make-Up was by Marena Duffy.
















Just a quick image from Sam and Orlagh’s wedding at Tankardstown House in Slane Co Meath.

Their wedding was today ( or maybe I should say yesterday as it’s after midnight).
Blimey.
This place was an oasis of calm and beauty. I had heard of Tankardstown before but never had the pleasure of photographing a wedding here.
My God.
Whilst places less than 30 miles away experienced flood-like rain, all we saw was the most beautiful summer’s day. We’re talking ‘Paramount Clouds’
I look with envy at countries with better weather, but when it’s good here, it’s amazing. And when you are lucky to pick such a day for your wedding, you are truly blessed…….
Superb Videography by Keith Malone Wedding Films.

Just a little sneaky peak from Barry and Louise’s wedding I photographed on the 29th July last at Solis Lough Eske, Co Donegal.
More to follow in due course
Pssssst…isn’t Louise gorgeous….!

I photographed Melissa and Paul’s wedding last Saturday at Adare Manor.
Melissa and Paul are the second couple in as many weeks who live in NYC. As always, I experienced some serious jealousy pangs about that! Did I say I loved NYC….?
The day kicked off with a champagne breakfast in the Presidential Suite. A lovely dry warm day meant that after the ceremony at the Holy Trinity Abbey in Adare, reception drinks took place outside in the beautiful gardens. Eventually a bell called guests to the Minstrels’ Gallery for dinner…….
Melissa & Paul’s wedding planner: Michelle McDermott of McEvents.
Melissa’s hair: Nuala Hanley
Melissa’s make-up: Roisin Derrane
Wedding cake: Goyas Galway’s Fines cake and bakery.
