Emma + Manny // Castle Leslie Estate, Monaghan, Ireland

These two!!!!

I swear this is the reason I shoot weddings. I just can’t get enough of the opportunities to meet new people with different stories to tell. Manny and Emma had a two day affair, celebrating Manny’s Nigerian roots in a colourful ceremony on the Thursday in The Hillgrove Hotel Monaghan followed by their “White Wedding” celebrated in typical Irish Style at the beautiful and opulent Castle Leslie Estate.

The laid back approach and the freedom these two gave me, made for some spectacular images, so much so that their wedding has made it to our new sample album which I look forward to bringing you soon.

Enjoy the colours, the dancing, that dress, the laughs and the tears!

Paula + Kenny // Castle Leslie Estate, Monaghan, Ireland

Where do I begin with this one?

When Paula and Kenny asked me to capture their big day I just couldn’t wait. Any excuse to shoot at the amazing Castle Leslie Estate and i’m there with bells on. It’s one of my favourite Wedding Reception Venues in Ireland; the staff are super attentive and nothing is too much trouble. Did I mention how incredible the Estate itself is, along with the stunning view over Glaslough? And as for Paula and Kenny - well they were a dream to work with. Living in Australia meant having lots of extra wedmin for these folk, with some suppliers being from the other side of the world to them. But they did such a great job, no doubt with the help of their family over this side. They really put on a fabulous day for all their guests, filled with elegant touches, beautiful music, homemade cake by Paula’s multi-talented Sister and Maid of Honour, lots of love for one another, and of course the craic. All this, paired with the spectacular backdrop of Castle Leslie is always going to be a winner! I’m really looking forward to sharing these images with you all, so you can love them as much as I do.

Thanks again to Paula and Kenny for choosing me to shoot your Wedding!
