Sheraton Hotel Athlone | Amy & Mike Wedding Day

Amy & Mike’s wedding day got off to a great start!! With the sun shinning and the beautiful light in the bridal suite we got some fantastic photos of the preparations. Amy’s bridesmaids were practicing their dance moves for the night while Laura Behan (the fab Make up artist on the day) worked her magic.

The staff at the Sheraton were friendly and very helpful and nothing was left to chance for the ceremony which was in their fine ballroom.

Amy was just so calm and relaxed which always sets a lovely tone for the day. Mike was with his boys getting ready and I found the same relaxed approach with them too. I just love it when everyone is on the same page as it means I’m gonna get lots of great images!!

After the ceremony we had ample time to venture down to the park for some very casual relaxed pics of the bridal party by the Shannon river. The Winter sun shone and I got lots of candid, over the shoulder photos that Amy and Mike really wanted. They couldn’t believe I managed to get so many because they hardly remembered me taking them.

Then back to the hotel for more fun and games. Later in the evening just before the first dance I managed to grab them for one quick night photo outside. All in all it was a fantastic day and I hope you enjoy the photos as much as Amy & Mike do.

Pamela & Brian's Wedding @ Emo Court

Brian & Pamela's Wedding Day.

On a beautiful Day in Emo Chapel, Brian Flanagan & Pamela Conroy came together with all their friends and family to say 'I Do'. It was a perfect setting and everything ran so smoothly, in no small part because of the lovely relaxed mood of everyone on the day. 

One of the nice things about shooting weddings is getting to know the extended family and friends of the couple. Feeling comfortable is essential for getting great shots on the day.  If I can get to know all the extended family it means they are happy to allow me to capture intimate moments..and also they feel confident enough to trust and ignore me!! Sometimes by ignoring me, they let me get on with the job of capturing those special moments.
