Dublin City Hall Wedding

It was a lovely day in September for Siobhan and Dave’s Dublin City Hall Wedding. Siobhan and Dave chose me to photograph their city hall wedding for my style. I like to photograph a wedding in a natural and unobtrusive manner. Primarily I like to keep things simple and not make a fuss. This was just what they were looking for. The majority of people who choose me to photograph their wedding are a little camera shy. So my approach really suits people who do not like having their photograph taken.

The Wedding Day

I always like to give a sense of Dublin to city centre weddings. The setting of City Hall and Dublin Castle nearby make for lovely backdrops for wedding photographs. The settings also add to the story of the day. I met with Siobhan and her bridal party at the North Star Hotel. The getting-ready pictures also add to the story of the day. Rarely do I do any posed pictures at this point of the day unless requested. Blending into the background and photograph everything as it is happening.

I headed in the direction of City Hall and went across the road to The Oak. Dave and his groomsman having a quick pint and to capture the old-world charm of The Oak. There was also a twist to the tale of the day. Siobhan had hired a horse and carriage to bring herself and her father to City Hall. As it happened there was a parade and protest in Dublin that afternoon. The Quays and Dame Street were blocked to all traffic. All routes to City Hall were closed. An Garda Síochána came to the rescue and gave Siobhan and her father a motorbike escort through the city. The staff at City Hall said this was a first and had never seen such a thing before. A great photograph it made coming up Parliament Street.

My Creative Approach To A City Hall Wedding

It was a beautiful wedding ceremony in the City Hall Atrium. One of the loveliest backdrop for wedding photographs in Dublin. There are also plenty of columns I can stand between so I am not visible during the ceremony. After the ceremony, we did the family pictures in the city hall. I also try to keep these as natural-looking as possible and incorporated the beautiful architecture of City Hall. There is an area by the side door of City Hall with an overhead view from the staircase that makes for the perfect spot for a group photograph.

I then brought Siobhan and Dave for a walk around the grounds of Dublin Castle for the bridal photographs. They did not feel like they were posing for wedding photographs but taking a nice walk together after being married. Dublin Castle grounds are also a lovely compliment to the City Hall wedding photographs. It all took only 10 minutes. So Siobhan and Dave did not miss any of their Fallon & Byrne wedding reception.

What If It’s Raining?

City Hall is one of the few venues in Dublin where you don’t have to worry about the weather on your wedding day. The beautiful interiors architecture of Dublin City Hall make for the loveliest backdrops to wedding photographs. So I always like to make the most of it. 

If it does rain get some outside pictures to add to the story of your City Hall wedding. After the pictures in City Hall, I usually go over to Dublin Castle with the couple. There are plenty of covered areas in the grounds of the castle. Whilst remaining dry and still adding the beautiful architecture as a backdrop to your City Hall wedding photography. 

That said 98% of the time the weather behaves itself. 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 Irish weather.

Social Distancing

Importantly it is possible to capture your City Hall wedding beautifully whilst adhering to social distancing.Since I use a portrait lens so I have to be at least 3 metres from the subject to achieve focus. Capturing a wedding in a natural way, I never need to touch or interfere in a scene.

Above all Siobhan and Dave were delighted with their wedding photographs. They thought that they looked beautiful and very natural. Always one of the most rewarding part of wedding photography for me. Brides look at their most beautiful on their wedding day when you do not pose them too heavily. Also wedding guests look at their very best when they do not feel like they are being photographed.

So if you are looking for a photographer for your Dublin City Hall Wedding and you like my style please feel free to call me anytime. My mobile number is  087 995 1252. I would love to hear about your Dublin City Hall wedding plans.

Registry Office Weddings

I have specialized in Registry Office Weddings for over 15 years. I love photographing weddings at one of my favourite locations in Dublin. This venue is surrounded by beautiful locations for wedding photographs. Here are some of my favourite registry office photography from recent years.

My Creative Approach To Registry Office Weddings

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

Such an approach makes the bride and groom feel like they are taking a nice walk through Dublin on their wedding day. Therefore they do not feel like they are posing for wedding photographs. It also creates a nice story of the day, and I like to keep 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 guests standing on the Locks crossing the canal. The scene presents a painterly quality and offers an unusual angle. It is also only three minutes from the registry office, making it convenient for everyone to walk up to it. The banks of the canal beside the lock also provide a lovely place for family pictures. All in all, it takes around 15 minutes. Then, the guests can go on to the reception venue.

The Walk-Through Georgian Dublin

I then set out with the bride and groom on the route along the canal, through Georgian Dublin to Merrion Square Park. This takes around 30 minutes. Couples tell me that the walk added to the happy memories of their day. Rather than taking away from it. A bride recently told me “We all had a wonderful time with sincere thanks for your warmth and professionalism throughout the day. Given that it was such a small group the photography session really ‘made a day out of it’ and gave us some justification for getting dressed up!”  Trudy Duffy

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. 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.

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. 

Locations For A Rainy Day

Then I go to St. Stephen’s Green with the couple. There is lots 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. Still getting 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.  

“I Do Not Like Having My Photograph Taken”

This is something I always hear from couples. I do not like having my photograph taken myself so I understand how you feel. To be honest I do not know how I do it but couples always feel very comfortable being being photographed by me. It just comes naturally and I think it is all to do with a photographers personality.

Couples always tell me they ended up really enjoying the portrait session. Despite their initial nerves they were surprised how nice it was. Walking through Dublin makes the process very pleasant. A nice stroll through the city on your wedding day.

So if you do not like having your photograph taken please drop me a line. I will make it all very easy for you. You will have beautiful pictures of your day and look at your very best without having to do anything apart from going for a walk. 

Social Distancing

I will capture your registry office wedding beautifully whilst adhering to social distancing. I use a portrait lens so I have to be at least 3 metres from the subject to achieve focus. Capturing a wedding in a natural way, I never need to touch or interfere in a scene.

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.

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.

City Hall Wedding

City Hall Wedding. It was a lovely Spring day in Dublin for Amy and Oliver’s Dublin City Hall Wedding. Amy and Oliver chose me to photograph their city hall wedding for my style. I like to photograph a wedding in a natural and unobtrusive manner. This was just what they were looking for. I find that most people who choose me to photograph their wedding do not like having their photograph taken. So my approach really suits people who are a little camera shy.

My Creative Approach To A City Hall Wedding

I like to think people also feel very comfortable working with me so they actually end up enjoying. I also feel that brides look at their most beautiful on their wedding day. Especially when you photograph them in a natural way. Hopefully, they do that feel like there are being photographed. The guests also look at their very best when they do not feel like they have to pose for photographs. Firstly I like to keep things simple and not make a fuss which I find couples really appreciate.

I always like to give a sense of story and place to a couple’s wedding photographs. The setting of City Hall and Dublin Castle nearby make for lovely backdrops for wedding photographs. It also gives a nice sense of Dublin to the story of the day. I met with Amy at her family home for the getting ready pictures. These pictures are always a nice addition to the story of the day. I never do any posed pictures at the house. I just blend into the background and photograph what is happening. We all then travelled onto City Hall for the wedding. There were some lovely pictures of Amy arriving with her Father and walking along Dame Street. The view down Parliament Street is always a lovely vista for photographs.

The Wedding Day

It was a beautiful wedding ceremony in the City Hall Atrium. It also makes for a lovely backdrop for the city hall wedding photographs. After the ceremony, we did the family pictures in the city hall. I also try to keep these as natural looking as possible and incorporated the beautiful architecture of City Hall.

 No. 25 Fitzwilliam Place Wedding

A lovely spring day for Jean and Jolis No. 25 Fitzwilliam Place Wedding in Dublin. Jean and Jolis choose me as their wedding photographer. They were looking for someone to photograph their day in a natural and unobtrusive way.

So this is my style and how I like to work. Firstly I like to keep things simple and not make a fuss. Couples really appreciate this as they do not have to worry about posing for photographs.

I also like to give a sense of story and place to a couple’s wedding photography. Therefore No. 25 Fitzwilliam Place makes for a beautiful setting for wedding photography and there is Georgian Dublin on the doorstep.

After a wedding lovely wedding ceremony we all then set off on a route I have planned out for pictures. It was very near No. 25 Fitzwilliam Place. It took in the banks of the Grand Canal, Georgian Dublin and Wilton Place Park.

So this made Jean and Jolis feel like they are taking a nice walk through Georgian Dublin on their wedding day. They did not feel like they were posing for wedding photographs. It also adds a nice element to the story of the day. It only took about 20 minutes so Jean and Jolis did not miss too much of their wedding party.

We returned to No. 25 Fitzwilliam Place. The front of the building made for a nice spot for a group picture of all the guests. It was a little cold to do all the family pictures outside. However there is a lovely room upstairs that was perfect for the family pictures. Above all Jean and Jolis were delighted with their photographs. I always find the most rewarding part of wedding photography.

It was a lovely summer’s day for Deirdre and Donal’s Fallon and Byrne wedding. Primarily I like to photograph a wedding in a natural and unobtrusive way. To keep things simple and not make a fuss. Deirdre and Donal chose me for this reason. In particular they were looking for natural wedding photographs.

We started the wedding photographs in St. Stephen’s Green before the ceremony. Firstly photographing Deirdre and Donal walking through the park. Thus they felt like they were taking a nice walk on their wedding day. As a result, they did not feel like they were posing for wedding photographs.

After we met with both their families at the bandstand in St. Stephen’s Green which makes for a nice backdrop for photographs. The grass beside the bandstand is actually a very quiet area. So on a Saturday, it is a good spot for family pictures.

I also like to make family pictures as natural looking as possible also. I achieve this by asking the guests to walk towards the camera. It gives people something to do so the photographs do not look stiff. Also, I find it makes people smile of their own accord. I came up with this idea on the very first wedding I ever photographed. It makes the pictures more contemporary and natural.

Then it was then on to Fallon & Byrne for a lovely wedding ceremony which included a Celtic hand-fasting ceremony. After the ceremony, we did some pictures in the laneways around Fallon & Byrne to give a mix of the urban and nature to the wedding photographs. Deirdre and Donal were delighted with their wedding photographs. This is one of the most rewarding parts of wedding photography for me.

If you like my Fallon & Byrne wedding photographs and my style please feel free to call me anytime on my mobile at 087 995 1252. I would love to hear about your Fallon & Byrne Wedding plans.

Morrison Hotel Wedding

It was a lovely Autumn day for Gillian and Callum’s Morrison Hotel wedding. I always like to give a sense of time and place for my wedding photographs.

Undoubtedly the nicest things about a wedding at The Morrison Hotel is that it gives a sense of the old and new of Dublin to the wedding pictures.

Finding nice backgrounds is one of the most important things to me when I am photographing a wedding. There are lovely backdrops of Dublin just on the doorstep of The Morrison Hotel.

After a beautiful wedding ceremony, I photographed Gillian and Callum’s walking around the area. Across the millennium bridge, down the quays and over the Halfpenny Bridge back to the hotel.

In fact Dubliners kindly moved out of the way while we were taking the pictures on the Halfpenny Bridge. The public are always happy to help.

This made Gillian and Callum’s feel like they were taking a nice walk through Dublin on their wedding day. Importantly not like they were posing for wedding photographs.

Also a bit of fun and only takes about 15 minutes so they were not missing too much of their party.

I like to think people also feel very comfortable working with me so they actually end up enjoying the experience. Besides  brides look at their most beautiful on their wedding day when you do not pose them. Hopefully, they do that feel like there are being photographed. 

There are also lovely places for pictures also at The Morrison Hotel. The large mirror in the front room is great for family portraits. Most importantly, Gillian and Callum were delighted with their pictures. They thought they looked very natural which I always hope for in my wedding photographs.

I always really enjoy photographing a Dublin registry office wedding because of all the nice backdrops there are for the photographs in the surrounding areas of the canal and Georgian Dublin. 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 being married and 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 so is also very convenient for the 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 so it will not take a lot of time out of your wedding day. If you like my style and my registry office wedding photographs please get in touch, I would be delighted to photograph your wedding.

We returned to Finnstown house and for the bridal portraits. I photographed Julie and Mick’s walking through through the gardens at Finnstown House. This made Julie and Mick’s feel like they were talking a nice walk on their wedding day and not like they were posing for wedding photographs. I like to give a sense of story and place to a couple’s wedding photographs and the grounds and the exterior of Finnstown House also make for a great setting for the photographs. The interior of Finnstown House also made for lovely backdrops for the family pictures which I also made as natural looking as possible.

Julie and Mick’s were delighted with their photographs. It is always find the most rewarding part of wedding photography for me.
