Lough Tay Engagement Shoot

Sunset Lough Tay engagement shoot in Wicklow

It’s no secret that one of my favourite places for engagement shoots is Lough Tay and the surrounding Dublin and Wicklow mountains. The rolling hills, the light and the incredibly scenery make it such a unique backdrop. You can be on top of a mountain one second and down in a valley beside a stream the next.

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!

Sophie and Garry | Kildare

Sophie and Garry got married at Cliff at Lyons in Kildare yesterday! So lets take a look at their Engagement Session, or as like to call it Couples Shoot and celebrate this amazing couple who were an absolute delight to work with. Cliff at Lyons is a stunning venue in Kildare, where you are literally spoilt with choices for photography spots, on this particular day it was a bit overcast and cold but these two embraced it like the awesome pair they are.

Iveagh Gardens Engagement Shoot

I love meeting new clients at our engagement shoots, so it was great craic to meet Linda and Donal and get to know them and while shooting their Iveagh Gardens Engagement Shoot. We got lucky with the weather and took a stroll around the Iveagh Gardens and took a spin in front of Coppers where these two actually met!

Howth Cliffs | Autumn Engagement Shoot

October 19, 2016 by Kathy Silke 1 Comment

When Sarah first emailed me I knew we were going to have an amazing shoot! From the start we were completely on the same page and I could clearly see her vision (I loved it) and I knew immediately that we were going to work fantastically together. When I met her and her lovely fiancé Shaun I was even more excited as they were both so lovely and completely put their trust in me to create some gorgeous sun kissed shots of them on Howth Cliffs.

I’m a massive lover of Autumn, Halloween, October…all the good things! So I was thrilled when Caoimhe and Micheal wanted to arrange an engagement shoot on a crisp Autumn evening in Phoenix Park. I love photographing people at sunset, known as “the golden hour” to photographers, you get that gorgeous golden glow on your subject and the natural light is to die for!
