Elaine + Alan / Oliveto Restaurant + Mount Juliet

Alan

Oliveto Restaurant + Mount Juliet

Relaxed 2 day wedding celebrations from Dublin to Kilkenny.

 

Elaine + Alan chose to spread their celebrations over two days and what an amazing couple of days they had! I finally got to shoot at the infamous “Blue Church” in Kilternan, a stand out church unlike any you’d see in Ireland. Day one was a casual family only intimate celebration with a ceremony followed by photoshoot in Ticknock then back to Dun Laoghaire  for a stroll on the Pier for some couple shots and then a family dinner in Oliveto’s. Day two was a bigger celebration for extended family and friends in the stunning Mt Juliet Kilkenny, as you’ll see from the images the couple really lucked-out with the weather, and we captured some lovely moments in and around Mt Juliet too, congrats again E + A!

A year in review 2016

Well……that's a wrap on 2016, a year spent documenting some of the most awesome couples I could’ve ever wished to work with, I truly am lucky that my work seems to attract like-minded people who just want to party and have the best day of their lives.

I’m constantly working on my art and I’m excited to see what 2017 has in store for Memento.

Happy New Year to all past and future brides + grooms plus their family and friends and of course thanks for all the online support I receive, YOU ALL ROCK!!!!

Here’s a small selection of some 2016 images that really sum-up why I love what I do!

Coolbawn Quay

Outdoor love at this little piece of waterfront heaven in County Tipp!

What an idyllic location for this cool couple, they exuded real ole school style with a modern twist, there were touches of pinks and their red vintage sports car really popped on this rainy day. We had some great photo opps and the changeable weather really added to the whole mood of the shoot, Coolbawn Quay has it all, with it’s magical setting, epic lake views and marina, it was a privilege to be part of the celebrations, Nice one U + V…..you guys were legends

Kilshane House 

Kilshane is a beautiful location and a fantastic backdrop. It was the perfect setting for Lisa-Anne + Christophers party plus the ideal location for shooting their Stopmotion Film.

Combine a fun, happy-go-lucky gorgeous smiley Bride with her dapper dickie-bowed Groom put them in rustic countryside setting with moody skies, add a conservatory ceremony and of course great folks and good vibes and this all makes for a memorable and magical video shoot and finished product…..it was a joy to shoot and the couple were thrilled with their Stopmotion film!
