Wedding Glenlo Abbey Hotel

Anne Marie & David were recently married in St Mary's Church Headford followed by a beautiful reception in Glenlo Abbey.

The relaxed tone for the day was set as soon as I entered Anne Marie's home....a very relaxed house with mum Mary doing the Traditional Irish for anyone that was present. As this was a winter wedding, the season didn't let us down as we had snow in the morning followed by the traditional wind and rain in the afternoon!We were lucky that Glenlo Abbey Hotel was the venue as one is spoiled for choice with regards to the photo opportunities this magnificent hotel offers.The Pullman Restaurant is obviously a "gem" with regards to opportunities for the photographer, but there are plenty of other lounges/libraries/abbey's/balconies and conservatories within the hotel which means that the short amount of daylight hours and the poor weather doesn't cause any undue stress!Below is a selection of images from a wedding that I really enjoyed.....thanks Anne Marie and David for being a relaxed and genuine couple to work with....I really enjoyed your day!

Wedding Ard Rí Hotel Tuam

April & Seán were married in St. Joseph's Church Milltown followed by a beautiful reception in The Ard Ri Hotel Tuam.

With both April & Seán's families living in Dublin, a large amount of the wedding guests had travelled West from the Capital, and they were Still celebrating their All Ireland Football success.......only to happy to let us know all about it.....and fair play to them!!I really enjoyed April & Seán's company and both their families were nothing short of a pleasure to work with. April & Seán have come through some difficult times, situations that very few people of their young age have to deal with, and it's great to see such a young couple having such a brilliant wedding!The "honeymoon" was spent in Medjugorje....and upon collecting their wedding images, they both "can't wait" to return there.Thanks for letting me be part of your wedding day April & Seán!

Seán "will I turn around John?"

Anytime the camera was around.....Granny just stood there and smiled....totally oblivious to what was going on around her!

Wedding Breaffy House Hotel Castlebar

The weather Gods didn't look favorably upon us for Eleanoir and Phil's wedding which took place recently in The Breaffy House Hotel. Rain started to fall just as we arrived at our "Bridal Portrait" destination, but with the help of some foliage from a range of evergreen trees, we managed to run off some shots and salvaged something from our outdoor shoot.

Well done to the staff and management who had the Hotel's ceremonial suite as well as reception rooms looking superb....fantastic lighting which gave a lovely ambience to the days proceedings.
