I love smores – both eating them and in this case photographing the making of them by guests at a Dunafon Castle wedding. Seriously – for your average wedding guest how cool has the memory of making smores at a castle have to be. I think I tell from a few of the faces around the...
On this shot of the bride and groom taking a moment to walk around the lake up at Dunafon Castle a quick call out to them got them to turn to grab a shot of their faces without turning it into an overtly posed image. I really like both the deep greens of this shot...

There’s just something wonderfully charming about young children dressed formally for a wedding. Here the pair of young ring bearers come through the side isle before turning to head to the ceremony site.

Wedding Photography Styles and the newly engaged couple When couples start looking for wedding photographers (and to an extent all wedding vendors) they are overwhelmed by choices. In the case of choosing a photographer one of the most important things to use in the narrowing down process is “photographic styles”. The problem is...
I’m very excited to share the news that for the 3rd straight year I’ve not only had an image recognized by the Artistic Guild of the Wedding Photojournalist Association but in the most recent photo contest I placed two images in the top 10. Getting even a single image ranked in the top 20 for...
