Documentary Wedding Photography

Meath, Louth, Dublin Ireland


For laid back couples who want a fuss free go with the flow wedding photographer!


My approach to wedding photography is not much different to how I photograph families and children. I capture what is happening in front of me, I don’t try to control or direct (I’m used to kids wanting to do their own thing). I much prefer to watch and wait for moments to unfold which means you can enjoy your day without stressing about what does the photographer want us to do!


After all your wedding day will go by so fast that you want to be present to enjoy every single second. The only part of the day that I will step in to give some direction is for family group photos and couple portraits. I promise I will make it as quick and painless as possible so that you can get back to having the craic and enjoying your wedding day with your family and friends.

I. Let’s Chat.

First of all let’s see if we are a good fit. Send me a message through my contact form and I will get back to you and arrange either a zoom call or if you live in Meath we can meet up over a coffee to chat about your wedding plans. If we meet up in person I will bring my camera along and take a few quick couple photos so you have a better idea of my style and approach.

II. Book your date.

If you are happy to go ahead with me as your photographer I will send you a booking invoice and contract. Once a booking fee is paid and the contract is signed your date is secured. A couple of weeks before your wedding I will send you a questionnaire to get all the details and I will check in with you to see how things are going. The week of the wedding I’ll drop you a message to confirm times etc.

III. Deliver memories.

Now the fun part… receiving your photographs. Within 48 hours of your wedding you will receive a sneak peek so that you will have photos to share with family and friends. The full gallery and slideshow will be delivered within 4 weeks of your wedding day. Wedding albums and products can then be ordered and these normally take about 5-6 weeks as they are designed by me and then hand made by my supplier.
