Leinster Leader Wedding Page

The Leader used another few images from a lovely wedding I recently photographed in Killashee House Hotel for Orla and Frank. The quality of reproduction of my images was excellent which is not normally the case with regional newspapers.

Moderno Album

Helen & Luke decided to present their wedding images in the Moderno album.
This album is a flush mounted digital album with 12x12 inch pages which are quite large for a wedding album.
This gives me great scope for design and picture layout and brings the large images to life.  The album is available in black or cream with a lovely photo insert on the cover and a magnetic clasp to close the album cover.




Kilkea Castle...A Possible Return To Business?

When Kilkea Castle in Kildare went into receivership some time ago it was like loosing an old friend. I had come to know the castle staff well over the years and loved shooting weddings at this lovely location.
It provided an amazing backdrop for wedding photography and it was one of my favourite locations in the Kildare area.  So when I opened the Property pages of the Irish Times recently I was delighted to see the Castle was generating some good interest from possible buyers.  Most of this interest was coming from possible vendors in America after the Ccastle featured on the American TV Business channel, Bloomberg.  Several investors have made appointments to view the Castle and its 145 acre estate.  Hopefully this lovely property will be back on the wedding venue's market soon!

Thank You cards.

I have for several years been asked by couples if I  supply 'Thank You' cards. My answer was no..up until now that is!  I finally decided to provide this service after receiving some of these cards from past weddings I photographed. One of my imagesfrom the wedding day would normally be used on the cards but to be honest the majority of these cards are printed to a very poor standard and the quality of most of what I have seen is exceptionally low.
The cards I am supplying are high quality in print, card weight and are supplied with envelopes and because I have full control over the design & digital imaging, the final product is way ahead of anything I have seen so far.  The normal 'Thank You' greeting inside the card can be personalized by the bride & groom to say whatever they would like. Cards can also be ordered in  very reasonable amounts of 25 cards & envelopes.

New York Engagement & Killashee House Wedding

After a proposal in the city that never sleeps, Orla & Frank tied the knot recently at St.Peters Church, Two-Mile-House, Naas and held their reception at the lovely Killashee House Hotel. Despite a few mishaps on the day including some very heavy April showers of hail, Orla & Frank really pulled out the stops to get some lovely shots on the day.







Wexford People Wedding Supplement

The Wexford People newspaper took advantage of a local wedding I photographed recently when they ran the images as a full page cover for their recent Wedding Supplement.  The local couple, Julie Breen and Luke Jackson are pictured at the Riverbank Hotel during the Skyfest weekend. Luke is orignally from Newcastle in the UK and the couple honeymooned in bueatiful Bali

New Coffee Table Style Parent & Guest Books

I have just introduced a new type of Parent or Guest book. These books are printed by digital-offset and are generally referred to as coffee table books. The quality is first class with heavy lustre quaility pages that are stitched bound  with a hard back photo cover. The album is a generous 10x8 inches in size. The albums will normally have the same selection of images that the Bride and Groom's main album will have and the layout is normally one image per page but there can be exceptions to this as you will see in the images below.  These albums can be ordered in any amount from one to...well whatever amount you would like!
