Capturing all the best moments of your magical day!
Well, well, well, look who's ready to capture some epic wedding moments! It's fantastic to see a wedding photographer who isn't afraid of a little rain or wind. I mean, who needs a picture-perfect sunny day when you can have the dramatic atmosphere that comes with the elements?
And you're absolutely right, weddings are all about the big emotions! From tears to laughter and even some whoopsie daisies thrown in for good measure. It sounds like you want me capture the essence of an Irish celebration in all its glory. So, if someone's dad wants to rock it out with the trad band or cousin Brid is having a hap-hazard dance-off, I'll be there to document it all.
Your wedding photography will truly outlive the flowers, cake, and band because it captures not just the moments but also the spirit of the day.

If I'm going to be involved in your big day, I want to know how you, how you met, what you love, and where you hope married life will take you.
You can add pre-wedding engagement sessions, to any of my wedding packages!
Why? Because, it puts you at ease in front of the camera, you become an expert 'poser' and it allows me to get nicer photos on the day, because you know me and trust me.
Do not underestimate it!
Planning a small intimate wedding? Don't sweat the big stuff
But don't want to miss out on all the moments?
Fear not, changing your dream large or foreign wedding doesn't have to be a bad thing. In fact by having an intimate, small wedding in Kerry, means more time with the people who matter the most!
I have tailored wedding photography packages which cater for smaller/shorter weddings, but you don't miss out on any wedding moments & you have time to get in the frame with all your guests!
You still get a great photography package which will capture your day in a big way!

FAQ
Top Kenmare Wedding Photographers
Looking for the best wedding photographer in Kenmare? Want a easy-going, and fun wedding photographer? Then you’re at the right place!
I am based near the stunning Kenmare, but you’ll often find me photographing weddings, proposals, and engagements through the Ring of Kerry. Kenmare has the best wedding venues and with its stunning coast line, mountains, pubs and restaurants you cant go wrong.
Why I love Kerry Weddings?
I grew up close to both Killarney and Kenmare and have spent many a childhood Sunday drive in both! I love Killarney weddings because they have so many stunning backdrops for couple & family portraits. I know the Killarney National Park really well along with the Gap of Dunloe, Molls Gap & Ladies View.
What are the best wedding venues in Kenmare?
Sheen Falls, Dromquinna Manor, Shelbourne Lodge, Parknasilla Resort are all fantastic luxury wedding venues in Kenmare, offering the best in elegant destinations for your wedding, with private hire, award winning food and much more. I have photographed at all three venues and really enjoy working there!
How do we book our Kenmare wedding photographer?
Once I have confirmed your date is available, I will send you a contract and then your date is fully secure with two things in place: a retainer and signed agreement.
I cannot hold dates without a retainer & I do get multiple enquiries about the same dates so I would always recommend booking sooner rather than later.
Do you edit the photos? Do you photoshop the photos?
Yes I edit all your gallery, image by image. I love revisiting your day and it's a lot of fun to see all those moments again!
And before you ask, no I will not photoshop you, I love to celebrate natural beauty. If you wish to have your images photoshopped or further post editing additional charges will be applied per image.
How many photos will we get?
Depending on the duration of coverage, for full day I usually deliver around a 800 final images. All photographs come in website and high resolution, and can be downloaded without watermarks.
How long before we get our wedding gallery?
Depending on the time of year it can vary between 12-16 weeks. No AI here!
I'm really proud I edit everyones gallery and although its time consuming, I love putting that extra touch my client experience and going over each photo individually.
Do you have a shot list?
I try to get all the standard photos of your day, family shots etc! If there are important people you want captured let me know, and also let your mum/bridemaids know so that we can keep on top of that! Your day will go by so quickly and a lot of the imagery I take & am known for are candid natural moments.
Do you use flash or off camera flash?
I'm primarily a natural light photographer, it.s the most flattering & natural light and I advise this to clients ahead of any ceremony. This is the imagery you can see on my website ahead of booking.
I do use flash for first dance & dancing., however would advise having your whole ceremony coverage in flash. I recommend where possible that couple and family portraits take place in natural light which is up to 2 hours before sunset & to bear this in mind ahead of booking.
Do you have a question?
Hit me up if you have any questions
How far do you travel?
I travel all over Munster for weddings,
such as counties Clare, Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Tipperary, Waterford.
Wedding photography outside of these locations may incur travel fees, but I discuss this with you ahead of booking.
