Ben + Sam

What a day. Back at one of my favorite venues, starting with Ben and the most chilled collie, Brody. Rings almost went missing (bush search mission activated), but all was well, and Sam looked incredible.

A freezing, windy beach shoot (with ice cream, somehow), then back for a relaxed evening, great speeches, and top-tier food. Just Adam Band brought the energy, and the dance floor was packed all night.

A perfect day from start to finish.

Ben + Sam (+Brody)

OMG, what a day. Back at one of my absolute favorite (and most frequent) venues Clandeboye Lodge Hotel —though let’s keep that between us.

Started the morning with Ben and the most chilled collie, Brody, before heading over to catch the girls in full glam mode at the Luxe Suite. Divinity Bridal Then it was wedding time… though we almost lost the rings, which led to a few of us searching through the bushes for a while. Thankfully, crisis averted, Brody was a star, and Sam looked absolutely stunning.

After the ceremony, we tackled some group shots and family photos before braving the beach—freezing, windy, and yet somehow, there was still ice cream involved. Madness. Also, I gave my nice warm coat to Sam, so I suffered for the art.

Back at the venue, the vibe was super relaxed with plenty of mingling and candid moments captured. Dinner and speeches were full of laughs, and the food was top-notch (plus, I somehow ended up with a spare plate).

Then came the party. When I saw Just Adam Band The Just Adam Band setting up, I knew it was going to be a great night, and they did not disappoint. Pretty sure half the wedding was glued to the dance floor until the buffet rolled out. At that point, it was time for me to call it a night.

What a day.

This wedding had it all—glamour, fun, and actual sunshine (remember that?!).

I can't wait to dive back into summer weddings, but for now, the season kicks off this weekend at the incredible Clandeboye Lodge Hotel … right where I wrapped up 2024!

Sarah + Alice

Epic gallery dropping soon—can I call it awesome if it’s my own work? Asking for a friend.
 Still buzzing from their epic wedding day—so much love, so much fun, and a vibe that was just next level. From start to finish, everything was pure magic.
The dresses (can I call them wedding onesies??) were stunning, the location? , always delivering—even on a wet winter’s day, it had that something special.
We squeezed in five mini shoots (yes, five!) in just minutes—these two were naturals, absolute pros in front of the lens. Oh, and I might have “borrowed” a doughnut—no photo evidence, so it didn’t happen, right? 🍩
Dinner was an incredible treat (as always, thank you!). Huge shoutout to the ultra-chilled Jaime—dream to work with!
And after all the formalities, we went full vibes: sparklers, posing under the dreamy garden lights, and even a little spa visit (don’t worry, no one got wet). This day had it all

Mary & Derrick’s Epic Wedding Day

What a day to remember! I had the absolute pleasure of capturing this intimate elopement, and let me tell you—getting married in the Library at Mussenden Temple? Pure magic. We only see this kind of setup a handful of times a year, and it never fails to blow me away. Hands down the most breathtaking venue in Northern Ireland (no arguments here—those views are unbeatable).

Mary and Derrick, an amazing duo all the way from the USA, brought the vibes, and the talent on show at Mussenden Temple was next-level. Sure, the wind made its presence known, but honestly, it only added to the drama of the day.

From there, it was off to the Roe Park Hotel for incredible speeches, mouthwatering food, and a surprise performance by Irish dancers that left everyone buzzing. What a day. What a couple. Unforgettable.

11/01/2025

Thrilled to share that I’m officially a recommended supplier for the incredible again this year! This venue is the OG—still one of the absolute best wedding spots in Ireland.
Tried to figure out how long I’ve been part of the Larchfield story… Pretty sure it all started way back in 2011. And honestly? It just keeps getting better, year after year. Massive thanks to Gavin, Sarah, and their amazing team for making it such a dream to work here!

What. A. Day. 💥 Celebrating love, laughter, and pure magic at the stunning

Yeah, it was freezing, but this couple’s love? Absolute fire. 🔥
We started at the dreamy Gate Lodge for bridal prep, followed by a personal ceremony under a jaw-dropping floral arch, led by one of their best mates—so special.

And the real VIPs? Their two incredible huskies. 🐾 From aisle struts to howling vows, they nailed it, thanks to their superstar nanny.

The day delivered: lots of hilarious moments, oysters, heartfelt speeches, amazing food (&oysters), and .dj smashing the dance floor. 💃🕺

What. A. Day. Celebrating love, laughter, and pure magic at the stunning ! Yeah, it was cold—but this couple’s love? Absolute fire. 🔥

We kicked things off at the Gate Lodge (seriously, the dreamiest spot for bridal prep ), then straight into the most personal ceremony, complete with a jaw-dropping floral arch . Oh, and it gets better—the ceremony was led by one of their best mates, making it all kinds of special. ❤️

And let’s talk about the real VIPs for a second—their two incredible huskies. 🐾 From strutting down the aisle to howling (literally!) during the vows, these legends nailed it, thanks to their superstar nanny keeping them on point.

The day just kept delivering—three epic best men bringing the banter, oysters on deck, speeches that had everyone crying and laughing, and food by that hit all the right notes. Fast forward to the evening, and .dj absolutely smashed it, keeping the dance floor alive.

We even braved the winter frost for some killer shots in the grounds—shoutout to these newlyweds for toughing it out like pros. Here’s a little teaser from a day that was nothing short of unforgettable.

Fantastic to be shooting alongside

An epic wedding shot taken after dinner in the rain… This is why I stick around late—so I can capture that extra bit of magic and switch up the style. Rain and nightfall? Doesn’t stop me from getting the perfect shot

Andrew + Lauren 🎄✨ Clandeboye Hotel Magic ✨🎄 Rain might have ruled the skies, but it didn’t stand a chance against the incredible energy of this wedding day! From cozy indoor moments to creative new angles for capturing those stunning wedding cars, the vibe stayed electric. 🐾 Special shoutout to the VIP guest of honor, Milo the cockapoo, stealing hearts left and right. 💕 The scene? A dazzling Christmas tree backdrop, sparklers lighting up the evening, and a spontaneous after-dark photoshoot that turned into a hilarious sprint through the rain. And let’s not forget the unexpected twist—wedding bingo!A first for me, but definitely not the last. 🎉 Rain or shine, this wedding was unforgettable. @clandeboyelodgehotel #jakesamuelsphotography #northernirelandweddings #quirkywedding #sonya7rii #irishbrides #northcoastwedding #niwedding #destinationwedding #belfastweddingphotographer #niweddingphotographer #lookslikefilm #belfastwedding #larchfieldestate #kilmorecountryhouse #ballyduganmill #orangetreehouse

The wind howled, and the rain came down in sheets, but did that dampen the mood at this epic Slieve Donard wedding? Not a chance! I’ll admit, I was a bit nervous about capturing any shots at first—but when you’re as bold and laid-back as these two, a quick stormy shoot is just part of the adventure. In fact, their response? ‘Let’s wait till it’s darker—maybe add a champagne spray?’ Oh yes, we did!

Robyn + Josh What an incredible day! I've just finished editing this wonderfully relaxed and fun wedding. The web gallery with hundreds of fantastic photos has just been sent out! So to celebrate, I've put together a slideshow featuring a few shots of everyone looking like movie stars—ENJOY!

Shannon & Jaime Wowza! 🌟 Had the most epic time at Clandeboye Lodge with Shannon + Jaime and their awesome squad of family & friends! Currently in the zone editing their amazing photos (oops, modesty out the window 🙈), reliving all those magical moments! 😍 Here's a sneak peek:

Hannah + Chris Absolutely thrilled to be posting this collection of amazing photo moments soon - I’m bursting with excitement to share them ASAP. Check your email tomorrow !!

Hannah & Chris To say I’m excited about editing this wedding is an understatement, I can not wait ! It was a day filled with joy, laughter, unpredictable weather, and, of course, an incredible venue...
