Your love story deserves to be told your way!
We’ve all got a tale worth sharing, with laughter, tears, and the moments you’ll treasure forever.
Let me capture your story, exactly as it is, with all the magic and joy it deserves.
I want to arrive at your wedding
as a friend, and leave feeling like family!
I take candid wedding & elopement photos for couples who want to kick back and enjoy the party.
I like to build relationships with my clients before their wedding.
I take on a limited number of weddings each year, which allows more time for you and for building friendships! By the time your wedding arrives, it feels like I'm photographing my besties! Why do I do this?
Because genuine connection is at the heart of what I do!

Wedding photography for 'the shy ones, the wild ones, the ones who won’t like the camera. '
A laid-back luxury wedding and elopement photographer based in Cork, Ireland, creating true-to-life, timeless imagery with a heartfelt approach for couples who care deeply about the people they love.
I'm for the imperfect people, the ones who celebrate the rough-and-tumble of life and the legacy they're leaving behind.
I photograph weddings across Munster, such as Cork, Kerry, Tipperary, Waterford and Limerick, creating story-driven images that feel natural, elegant, and deeply personal, never forced.
I'll document your day, as is!
I'm for rebellious hearts, nerdy souls & awkward peeps
Who am I?
Hi, I'm Sarah Kate Murphy.
I'm a history and wildlife lover, happiest near untamed seas and heather-covered mountains.
I adore the smell of warm summer rain or the feeling of salty wind on my face.
And I love, love stories.
Especially those unbridled by tradition or societal constraints.
But what I really, really, love is capturing big feelings and real emotions on your wedding day.
(And yes I'll probably cry too).

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER WHO ISN'T FULL OF SHITE?
Let's be honest, you've probably looked at a million different wedding photographers, and we all say the same shite on our websites about 'freezing memories in time,' yada yada, yada.
I'm a stress-free kind of girl.
I prefer to stand back and let the moment unfold, and I'm all about the relaxed vibe!
The day is about you, you absolute ledgeballs, your families and your friends!
That's what I want to capture, those connections!

All you really want is a photographer who captures the real you
and the true atmosphere of your day, without barking orders!

But I hate when I get my photo taken? I'm so awkward.
Don't worry about feeling awkward, awkward is my middle name
Sit for a minute & let's have a chat
I know taken can feel like the most awkward, obtrusive thing in the world! I know because I feel that way too.
But trust me and trust the process when I say, I make it a fun and relaxed experience.
I get all the family formals done quickly, so more time for mingling & enjoying time with your guests.
On your wedding day, I bring all of that and more.
I want you guys to kick back and savour the party & not be stressed about photos!
Wedding Photography in Wild Places
As a documentary wedding photographer, I want to deliver genuine wedding pictures, filled with lots of shits and giggles!
We all have our ideas about what we want from our wedding photos. Some of us are super comfortable in front of the camera, while others feel like they might die every time someone points one at us! My double chin and I are in the latter category.
Whatever your preconceived ideas about wedding photography are, leave them at the front door, because this, girlies, is all about your feelings on the day and less about everything being perfect.
On a wedding day, your happiness comes first, along with all the genuine smiles, tears, and in-between moments that flow from that!
Trust me, I want you to enjoy the party, and I'll document it in a way that puts you at ease.
I'm located close to some of Ireland’s top wedding and elopement destinations, including West Cork and Kerry. Stunning towns and the best wedding venues near Bantry, Glengarriff, Kenmare, Kinsale, Gougane Barra, Killarney National Park, Dingle, Tralee, Adare, Tipperary, and Limerick, I’ve got it all on my doorstep!
Let's keep her lit, lads!

REAL WEDDING PHOTOS BY SARAH KATE PHOTOGRAPHY
So why is the best photographer in Cork & Kerry?
Well, someone had to ask, with my incredible humour, kindness that's off the charts, and a pinch of unique quirkiness, who could even compete? I'm practically a one-of-a-kind photo ninja capturing all those magical moments! But don't worry, I won't let all this fame go to my head... much. (Can you tell I got Chat GPT to write this hahah I'm legit not this vain in real life)
