Remember the most important thing to schedule some time in for is FUN!! Emma's girls just got to play with her like she was a doll on her big day. So much fun!!
Truth be told, there will be things that after 10 years of shooting weddings that get to you (don't listen to the ones who tell you otherwise 😉) People with ipads standing in front of you. Rain!!! Nosey neighbours who invite themselves to the ceremony and sit gossiping at the back. More rain!! Old people shushing children who are being so very good. Wind and rain!! Guests looking miserable even though they are being wined and dined (just go home already) And a major bug bear, being patronised by old men who spent their pension on camera gear because I mean I'm just a dumb blonde right? 😂 But the thing I'll never EVER tire of at weddings. Is couples who look at each other like Hannah and James look at each other. We are merely spectators. Giving them a little bit of a vision of what they look like to the rest of the world. And its super sweet. 🌍😍🤗
We always encourage a wee portrait or two after dinner. It's always much easier and way more fun once you have a wee glass of wine and all the formalities are done. Boogie in a field.. Why not? Brides who just go for it and forget that the dress is white (and is inclined not to remain fully white all day) and know that the shoes can be cleaned are the top scorers in our book. That helps us be limitless in what we can shoot with you on your big day, resulting in super sweet images like this one.👆🏼 😁😊😙
Looking outside tonight makes me want to let you know, that not every wedding day incorporates sunshine and mountains. Sometimes it pours from the heavens, non stop! But don't worry, we don't mind getting drenched to get the shots that will help you remember your day regardless of that not being what you dreamed. You look back fondly on it!! You never look back and wish for something else because that was what made it unforgettable. Dublin is quite pretty in the rain still... ☔👌🏼😍
So this!!! This is why we encourage no phones during the ceremony. So that we can capture true reactions. Look at Hannahs friends faces. Just so full of love. So worth that 15minutes without a phone and leaving it to us. 💕😍
Swipe for a super cute moment.➡️ At the time I was toying over binning this image. I knew the moment was sweet but the light was difficult because it was a dark cottage in rainy cold March. So I thought the usual "moments over mountains" and included it in the final lot even though I knew it wasnt perfect and its hard for me to let go. Ashley messaged me and said "thank you for capturing this" - and I just knew that what I preach constantly is true. Even though sometimes it isn't perfect and it isn't poster worthy. But it means something to your bride. Something that you didn't create or fake, just a moment caught. Much like the image captured years ago of them together. We never shoot for likes. We don't work for popularity or "follows". It sincerely doesn't matter to us that we have 4k followers as opposed to 21k because of images that depend solely on backdrops and clothing and whether a couple is attractive or doing the next new fad. We never shoot for anyone but our couples. We don't blast ourselves all over this account because it's never ever about us. It's about you... 💕💕💕
German log cutting ceremony. Thats a thing we never did before ticked off the list. What a fun way to celebrate your marriage to one another. Kind blows cutting a cake out of the water eh. "An old German wedding custom, the tradition of cutting a log represents the first obstacle that the couple must overcome in their marriage. They must work together to “overcome the obstacle” by sawing through the log. Using a large, long saw with two handles, the couple demonstrates their teamwork to friends and family, and their willingness and ability to master the difficulties that inevitably arise in a marriage. Hopefully the log will not take too long to saw through! " You can see this gorgeous traditional wedding on the blog. So some inspiration on how to do" timeless"
Using humour to deflect emotions... Or just being cheeky to her dad. 😜😊
Doing the whole couples in love on misty mountain tops before it was even a thang. Another throwback to 2012.
