Hiring a Wedding Photographer: Key Considerations

Choosing a wedding photographer who understands the essence of Powerscourt is essential. Look for someone with experience shooting in similar settings and a style that matches your vision. I describe my style as “classy but candid”. So, a nice mixture of heartfelt wedding photography with a polished, editorial vibe.

Lighting and Timing: The Irish weather can be unpredictable. An experienced photographer will know how to work with natural light. Working with the light is a huge part of my wedding photography style and am constantly assessing the light and how to best use it.

Capturing Candid Moments

While those stunning couples’ shots and bridal portraits are definitely key, candid moments tell the most authentic stories. I always capture the “full story” of your wedding day telling a story though your wedding photography. The heartfelt moments are priceless, and I love to capture spontaneous moments of joy, laughter, and emotion throughout the day.
