Planning your wedding day ahead as much as possible is the key to having a relaxed day focused on spending time with guests and celebrating. I know it contradicts itself a bit, but trust me - I have photographed lots of weddings since 2017 in Ireland and abroad and I have seen things done right and things not done at all. No matter how casual and informal your day is going to be, people should know what’s happening and where.
Read MoreI am so pleased to be able to share with you this fabulous, super romantic and laid back French wedding of Aneta & Hugh. A true midsummers night dream of a wedding, romantic, elegant and a joy to witness. The couple got married at their private property by the river Dordogne, near Bergerac.
Read MoreI take time away from my personal trips to shoot couples abroad because it brings value both to me and to the couple. As mentioned in my previous blog post with Alessandra & Daniel's engagement photos on the Brooklyn Bridge, shooting at 7 am or earlier is really nothing new for me. I commit to these experiences and get amazing photos in return. Central Park is now one of my favourite places to photograph in NYC - it has amazing light, greenery, historical vibe to it and it's a great place for a relaxed, low key engagement photo shoot.
Read MoreHello, Lovelies! I'm coming to you today with an interview with Tara Fitzgerald from Planned by Tara, who's an Irish wedding planner in Malta! I've known Tara online for a few months now, as a destination wedding photographer I'm a member of her supplier forum & I we follow each others Instagram accounts (that's a big one, right?! :D). I approached her about this interview and I'm so happy she said yes - 2018 has been the best so far for making connections with vendors and creatives all over the place, and it's all for the benefit of my brides! I love the fact that Tara so relatable - she was a destination bride herself once, she loves to travel & she's committed to making your day as stress-free as possible.
Tara explains why hiring a good planner for your destination wedding will make everything much easier & shares her tips about weddings in Malta. We teamed up to give you some guidance & insights on getting married abroad because so often brides would feel pinned down to get married at home thinking there is no other option. With little encouragement and a smaller budget (!), they could be married off on a beautiful island and have a wedding day of their dreams.
