Verdi & Billys wedding

Verdi & Billy tied the knot on Thursday at Alexander Elim, and then had their reception at the Clarion Hotel in Carrickfergus.  We all had a very nice day and it was brilliant to see Jonathan, Elaine Nathan and Sarah there.  Nathan had a ball getting to know his cousins and a big thanks to Graham who played with him most of the day.  Nathan just loves the rough and tumble.  I didn't take many photos but here are a few, enjoy.

Blond Moment!

Alana had another one of her blond moments yesterday,  She wasn't able to find the en-suite in the hotel room yesterday, this was a room with only two doors and one was the way in and out.  However we put her right and the medication helps.  This is her with Lewis at Verdi and Billy's wedding yesterday and dont they both look well.  More to come on the wedding soon...

Darren & Laura Wedding

Lorraine & I recently had the pleasure and privilege to photograph our friends eldest daughters wedding.  Darren and Laura tied the knot at Newington Chuurch and then onto the Tempelton Hotel for a lovely reception.  These are a few of my favorite images from the day, 30th December 2010

Wedding Gemma & George

Yesterday Lorraine and I had the privilege of sharing George and Gamma's big day. The wedding and reception were both held at Newforge House a lovely romantic period house close to Moria. The weather forecast last Sunday was heavy rain, but as the week progressed the weather continued to pick up. They could not have had a better day and we were able to take a lot of the photos in the beautiful gardens that surround the house. Is it warm or just me, I spent the whole day wiping beads of sweat from my brow. I mean Niagara falls, it was so humid and warm I hoped that when we went outside that I would cool down, not a chance.

The whole day was very relaxed and family centered and it was great to see a number of generations enjoying themselves. The whole day finished off with an evening party in the Coach, Banbridge. Best wishes to George and Gemma MTK...

Mark & Holly's Wedding

Lorraine and I had the pleasure of shooting Mark and Holly's wedding in May, and it was a pleasure. Very relaxed, weather was great, actually to sunny for me and the atmosphere was first class. These are a few of my favourite images from the day. You would be forgiven for thinking that the whole wedding was shot in black and white, I asure you it wasn't, I just like them.

Emma & John's Wedding

I have bee looking forward to this wedding for about two years. Emma and John were married at Ballydown Church and then over to Ballydown Primary School for some tea. The reception was held at Corrick House, near Augher. The weather on the day could not have been worse, freezing cold, downpouring rain. However Emma arrived in style, and when we got safely indoors the rest of the day was brilliant. Mtk...

Some more photos from Paddy and Normas wedding

By now Paddy and Norma should be back from Vegas, so it should be ok to post some more photos from their wedding.

Paddy and Normas Wedding

Lorraine and Janet worked with Norma for many years in the nursery department of Houstons, so the news of a wedding created a lot of excitement and missions to find outfits and all that kind of stuff. The day was splendid and the wedding was lovely. Both the service and reception were held in the Burrendale hotel, Newcastle. The Burrendale was nothing new to Lorraine and I as we spent our honeymoon there some 30 years ago and were one of their first guests. The meal was excellent and I couldn't fault it in any way. The official photographer was a very friendly guy called Brian Byrne, who could not have been more gracious to me and invited me to join them on the beach for some photos, which was great fun.
I have a load of photos but am holding off posting them until the couple return from the honeymoon in Vegas. So as they say mtk...

David & Laura's Wedding

David and Laura tied the knot at Emmanuel Church in Lurgan. It rained as soon as we arrived and for the rest of the service. I wanted to play about with natural light so did not take a flash. Much harder than it looks in low light conditions.
Last three were taken at the reception, and flash was used. The reception was held at the Tullylagan House, near Cookstown. We had a lovely evening, the music was brilliant not a lot of dancing but when Emma and I got up for a dance it turned out to be the bands last song so got the last dance of the evening.
Every now and then you meet a person who leaves and impression and Auntie Hilda (Muriels Auntie) is one such person, she is the life and soul of the party and for seventy something she is great craic, Lorraine and her hit it off from the very start.
