Howth Cliffs | Engagement Photography Jenny and Eddie scheduled their engagement shoot to be at Howth Cliffs in Dublin. If you haven’t heard about it, Howth Cliffs is a pretty epic setting and right up my alley! This was the first time I met Jenny and Eddie, and right away I knew I was going to be in for a great time. They were both so bubbly, warm, and welcoming and before I knew it we had whiled away an hour chatting over drinks and nearly missed the sunset that we were aiming to photograph!

Kilronan Castle | Dublin Wedding Photographer   As a Dublin Wedding Photographer it’s not uncommon for me to travel to the countryside, or Ireland’s Wild West to photograph a wedding.

True enough, once the church ceremony ended, the heavens opened up and we had to make a hasty retreat to the castle! This was my first time at  Kilronan Castle and it did not disappoint. Arriving at this castle was a breath of fresh air and definitely a highlight for me! From it’s sprawling lush grounds to it’s medieval inspired interiors, I was in love right away and I could totally see why Anna and Peter chose to celebrate there marriage there.

Michelle and Stephen | Wicklow Mountains Michelle and Stephen’s Ireland winter wedding was one for the books! When Michelle and I met beforehand to discuss details, I knew it was going to be amazing. We even had matching Pinterest boards! To top it off, she said these magic words to me… “I want to do my photos in the Wicklow Mountains.” Queue internal squealing with joy! I’ve always loved the amazing and beautiful scenery and landscapes that Ireland boasts. It’s something that I’ve always been inspired by and makes me feel at home, so being told that the bridal portraits would take place in one of my most favourite places (up a mountain) was pretty much a dream come true!
