Registry Office Wedding

Registry Office Wedding. Vicki and Alan celebrated their registry office wedding on a lovely day in Dublin. They traveled from Scotland to get married at the Registry Office. I aimed to capture a nice sense of the city in their wedding photographs, especially since some of Dublin’s loveliest parts are nearby. I also enjoy taking couples along a specific route after their registry office ceremony, which includes the banks of the Grand Canal, Georgian Dublin, and concludes at Merrion Square Park.

My Creative Approach To A Registry Office Wedding

I photographed Vikki and Alan as they were walking through this part of the city. Thus, they felt like they were taking a nice walk through Dublin on their wedding day. Not like they were posing for wedding photographs. I like to photograph a registry office wedding in a natural manner. Brides look at their most beautiful when they do not have to worry about posing.

Wedding guests look at their very best when they do not feel like someone is photographing them. The experience resembled a guided tour of Georgian Dublin. The photography was relaxing and enjoyable, providing a sense of story and place. We wrapped up the photography session at O’Donoghue’s on Baggot Street. Alan and Vikki wanted to enjoy a nice pint of Guinness in a traditional Irish pub.

What If It’s Raining?

I have photographed a number of weddings in the rain, so I have a backup plan for locations. That said, it has only happened on a few occasions, and 98% of the time, the weather behaves itself or clears up, so we can get all the pictures done.

On the few occasions it rained we were still able to get all the photographs with a few changes to locations. We can still do the group portion on the canal. Everyone can put their umbrellas up for one picture, like a parasol. Then take them down quickly so I can get that picture. So you will have both versions. There is good tree coverage on the banks of the canal to do the family pictures.

Then I go to St. Stephen’s Green with the couple. There is loads of good tree coverage there at all times of year. Close by is The National Library, Trinity College and The National Museum has beautiful architectural coverage to add to the story of the day.

When rain was forecast, a bride once bought a white umbrella that matched her dress. It thus added to the story and charm of the pictures.

So there are a lot of alternative options around the city centre so we can still get that nice sense of Dublin in the pictures. Whilst remaining dry and still enjoying the time. These are just ideas and of course if a couple has any other preferences around town.

Registry Office Wedding Photographer Dublin

Registry Office Wedding Photographer. With over 15 years of experience. It is one of my favourite locations in Dublin to photograph a wedding. This is because of all the lovely locations for wedding photographs that are close by.

I always like to give a sense of story and place to registry office wedding photographs.  Over the years I have formulated a nice route that takes in the banks of the Grand Canal, Georgian Dublin and Merrion Square Park.

This approach makes the bride and groom feel like they are taking a nice walk through Dublin on their wedding day. Thus they were not like they were posing for wedding photographs.  It also created a nice story of the day and I like to keep a couples’ wedding photographs as natural and unposed as possible.

I also came up with the idea a few years ago to do the group portrait of the guest stand on the Locks crossing the canal.  The scene has a painterly quality to it and is an unusual angle. It is also only three minutes from the registry office. It is thus handy for everyone to walk up to it.

The banks of the canal beside the lock also are a nice place for family pictures.  All in all it does not take too much time, around 15 minutes. The guests are then free to go to the reception venue. I set out with the bride and groom on the route and they are happy with the pictures.

The Registry Office Wedding Day

On this lovely spring day, I met with Sarah at her house to do the getting ready pictures. This I find can be some of the nicest of the day. I never ask people to pose so I always photograph the getting-ready pictures naturally. I just photograph what is happening at the house.

The neighbours and friends gathered at the house to wish the bride well and see her dress, These are very charming pictures of the day. It was then off to the registry office for a lovely wedding ceremony.

After Sarah and Keith were married I set off with the guests to the lock across the canal for the group photograph.  Guests always find a lot of fun.  It is not your typical group shot angle and everyone always seems to enjoy it.

We then did the family pictures on the banks of the canal. There I also try to make as natural looking as possible. This all went very quickly and then the guests could go off to the reception venue.  I set off with Sarah & Keith on the route we had agreed upon.

I really just photographed Sarah and Keith walking around Georgian Dublin and the canal on their way to the wedding reception. It was relaxing and fun, I like to keep it easy and not make a fuss.

Sarah & Keith were delighted with their wedding photographs which is always one of the most rewarding parts of wedding photography for me. They also thought they looked very natural which is the style they were looking for.

What If It’s Raining?

I have photographed a number of weddings in the rain so I have a backup plan for locations. That said it has only happened on a few occasions and 98% of the time the weather behaves itself. Or it clears up so we can get all the pictures done.

Given the current situation, I am still able to capture your registry office wedding beautifully whilst adhering to social distancing protocols. I always photograph the portraits outside. Some of the loveliest areas of Dublin are close by. The Grand Canal and Georgian Dublin. Using a portrait lens so technically I have to be at least 3 metres from the subject to achieve focus. Capturing a wedding in a natural and unobtrusive way means I never need to touch or interfere in a scene.

The Wedding Day

On this lovely summers day I met with Susan and Alan at the registry office. After a lovely wedding ceremony we all set off with the guests to the lock across the canal for the group photograph. Guests always find this a lot of fun.  It is not your typical group shot angle and everyone always seems to enjoy it. The photograph also has a painterly quality to it.

I really just photographed Susan and Alan walking around Georgian Dublin and the canal on their way to the wedding reception. It was relaxing and fun, I like to keep it easy and not make a fuss. We came across a number of surprises that Susan and Alan wanted to add to the pictures. A vintage Volkswagen Van and a Mustang. The couple were dog lovers so we also met a shaggy dog that was happy to pose with Susan and Alan for a few photographs.

Susan and Alan were delighted with their wedding photographs which is always one of the most rewarding parts of wedding photography for me. They also thought they looked very natural which is the style they were looking for.

Hampton Hotel Wedding

It was a lovely summers day for Louise and Damien at the registry office and their Hampton Hotel Wedding.

I always really enjoy photographing a Dublin registry office wedding because of all the nice backdrops in the surrounding areas. The most beautiful and historic areas of Dublin are right on the doorstep.

I have a favourite route that I like to take couples along after their registry office wedding. It takes in the banks of the Grand Canal, Georgian Dublin and finally to Merrion Square Park.

I find it makes couples feel like they were taking a nice walk through Dublin after the wedding.  It is not like they were posing for wedding photographs, it is also fun and relaxed.

I also came up with the idea recently of having the guest stand on the Locks crossing the canal for the group photograph which I think looks lovely.

That area of the canal is only a three-minute walk from the registry office. Thus, it is also very convenient for family pictures. It all makes for a lovely story of your wedding day.

The whole process from the registry office to Merrion square takes around 45 minutes. It will thus not take a lot of time out of your wedding day.

Registry Office Wedding Photography

Registry Office Wedding Photography. A lovely day in Dublin for Eadaoin & Daniel’s registry office wedding photography and Clarion Hotel wedding reception. Eadaoin & Daniel have seven children so photographs with their kids on their wedding day were very important to them. The locks crossing the canal near the registry office make for a lovely place for a family photograph and the scene has a painterly quality to it. The pictures of Eadaoin & Daniel with their children standing on the lock are some of the nicest of the day. The children also found it a lot of fun.

Registry Office Wedding Photography Creative Approach

After a lovely ceremony at the registry office we all travelled on to the Clarion Hotel for a wedding reception. Also stopping on the way for photographs at the Lucan Golf club. The grounds and lakes made for a lovely setting for the wedding photographs. Eadaoin & Daniel’s chose me as their wedding photographer as they do not like posing for photographs. I like to photograph a wedding candidly to capture the atmosphere of the day in a natural and unobtrusive manner. They both really appreciated this. I photographed Eadaoin & Daniel’s walking around the lake at Lucan Golf club. So this approach made them feel like they were taking a nice walk on their wedding day. Not Like they were posing for wedding photographs. It only took about 5 to 10 minutes so they were not away from their party for too long.

Clayton Hotel Liffey Valley Wedding Reception

We travelled on to the Clayton Hotel Liffey Valley for the wedding reception and we did some more family pictures at the hotel. The white curtains in the reception room made for a great backdrop. I also tried to make these pictures as natural as possible. Achieving this by asking everyone to walk towards the camera. It gives people something to do and I find it makes people smile of their own accord. Also the kids also really enjoyed it. I came up with this ideas on the very first weeding I ever photographed to make the pictures more contemporary and natural. The beautiful wedding cake reflected Daniel’s love of fishing.

Eadaoin & Daniel thought that their wedding photographs looked great which is always find the most rewarding part of wedding photography for me. To provide a nice record of a couple’s happy day.

Registry Office Wedding Photography

Registry office wedding photography. It was a lovely sunny winters day for Alison & Brendan’s wedding at the registry office wedding photography. Since it gets dark early Alison & Brendan decided to meet before the ceremony to have their pictures taken.So we all set off on a route we have planned out for wedding photographs near the registry office. It takes in the banks of the Grand Canal, Georgian Dublin and Merrion Square Park by the Oscar Wilde statue.

My Creative Approach to

Registry Office Wedding Photography

I always really enjoy registry office wedding photography. Situated close to the registry office are the nicest parts of Dublin. I photographed Alison & Brendan taking a walk through the city on their way to be married. This approach makes the bride and groom feel like they are taking a nice walk through Dublin on their wedding day and not like they were posing for wedding photographs. It also created a nice story of the day. Following their registry office wedding Alison & Brendan took a horse drawn carriage ride through the city to the Shelbourne Hotel. I sat up front with the driver and I highly recommend it. It is a lovely way to see the city on your wedding day.

What If It’s Raining?

I have photographed a number of weddings in the rain so I have a backup plan for locations. That said it has only happened on a few occasions and 98% of the time the weather behaves itself. Or it clears up so we can get all the pictures done.

On the few occasions it rained we were still able to get all the photographs with a few changes to locations. We can still do the group portion on the canal.

2021 Registry Office Wedding

If you are planning a 2021 registry office wedding and you like my style please drop me a line. I would love to hear about your wedding plans. These are some of my favourite registry office wedding photographs from recent years. Registry office weddings are my speciality. One of my most favourite locations in Dublin to photograph a wedding.

My Creative Approach

After graduating from The National College of Art and Design I emigrated to New York where I worked as a photojournalist with The New York Times for 7 years. When I returned to Dublin I brought the same approach for photographing a newspaper story to wedding photography.

With all my weddings I bring a calm, natural, artistic and unobtrusive approach. Primarily I like to keep things simple and not make a fuss. Couples really appreciate this.

The most beautiful parts of Dublin are only a couples of minutes from the registry office. Georgian Dublin, the banks of the Grand Canal and Merrion Square Park. Having photographed over 50 registry office weddings I am very familiar with this part of Dublin. I have a nice route that I have formulated over the years. And of course any other locations in town a couple would like to go to. This approach makes the bride and groom feel like they are taking a nice walk through Dublin on their wedding day.. Not feel like they were posing for wedding photographs.

The majority of couples I work with do not like having their photograph taken. I do not like having my own photograph taken so I understand how people feel. Despite this couples always tell me that my approach actually made them enjoy the experience. They found it fun and relaxing and added to their happy memories of the day rather than take away from them.

During the first registry office wedding I ever photographed I came up with the idea to do the group portrait of the guest stand on the lock crossing the canal. The photographs from this perspective looks like paintings. Guests also find it a lot of fun and it adds to the experience of the day.

Your Registry Office Wedding

Normally I am at the Registry Office 30 minutes before the bride and groom and guests to photograph everyone arriving. The ceremony I photograph in as natural and unobtrusive way as possible. After that everyone heads up to the lock on the canal. It is only 4 minutes away. We then do the different family pictures on the banks of the canal. Family and friends are then free to go on to the reception venue.

Again all these locations are just suggestions and we can go anywhere else in Dublin.

I then set off on the route I have agreed with the couple beforehand around Dublin. Any guests who would like to come along on the walk are also welcome. The more the merrier. Especially for a destination wedding it is a lovely way for guests to see the city. Sometimes it becomes a guided tour through Georgian Dublin.

We usually walk as far as Merrion Square. Though we often walk as far as St. Stephen’s Green and Grafton Street. A taxi from Merrion Square to town also is an option to get in as many locations as possible.

What If It’s Raining?

In the 15 years I have been photographing weddings there has only been one wedding where it has rained all day. There is always a break in the weather. I have photographed numerous weddings in the rain and have a strategy to get all the pictures and you will not be able to tell it is raining.

The canal and around at Merrion Square have a lot of tree coverage allowing to get the pictures without getting wet. A bride I recently worked with bought an umbrella that matched her dress. It really added a sense of style to the photographs rather than take away from them. It was only needed for a few minutes anyway.

St. Stephen’s Green, the National Library and National Gallery also provide a lot of coverage. It is also an option to take a taxi to this area of town to do the pictures. The natural beauty of Stephen’s Green and the beautiful architecture of the Kildare Street area will still tell a lovely story of your day and a sense of Dublin despite the rain.

The most rewarding part of photographing a registry office wedding is how happy couples have bee with their photographs. If you like my registry office wedding photography and my style please feel free to call me anytime on my mobile at 087 995 1252.
