Alisha Rose

I had a lovely visit from Alisha this morning. We had some fun on the bean bag and chair and Alisha was as good as gold considering that it's a hard life being so pretty all the time!

Charity Photoshoot

I took part in a charity Photoshoot to raise funds for the Railway Preservation Society, they keep those old trains running smoothly and do a run or two every year from Portadown to Bangor with the actual steam engine that Ruth's Great-Grandfather used to drive!

The shoot took place in the yard but I kept to the old carriages (it was very cold!), it was a nice change of pace to set up the portable lights and do a shoot just for the fun of it!

Even little pumpkins can have a free sitting...

Louise and Paddy

We had a little game of dodge the rain on Saturday, but we had our big white umbrellas so it was ok.

The service was held in Sy Patricks in William Street, which looked fantastic as Gabriel's had been let loose. Then we popped across the road to see how Granny was keeping, took some shots at ardress house and finished up at the Four Seasons Hotel!

Jennifer and Mark

Belfast Castle is a fantastic location, and when we arrived the sky was blue with a few of those fluffy white clouds that just make the sky look bluer! To make the most of the location I attached my Super-Wide-Angle-Lens to my second camera to ensure we would get the whole castle in the background.

Jen was a little nervous, but Mark managed to calm her down (as did a wee drink before the ceremony) and we made the most of the weather. We did pop down to Jen's Mum and Dads farm after to take a few shots and they had a whole pig roasting! It was a bit off-putting until you smelt it, MMMMMmmmmmmm Pig!

Kathy (Katie) and Peter

We started off local yesterday (a couple of doors up from my Granny actually!), and finished up at Cabra Castle in Co. Cavan. I made the mistake of looking at the website where they had a photo of one of their bathrooms with a lovely free standing bath. I got the notion to photograph the bride in the bath (no water) with her veil hanging over the edge towards me. Luckily most of my brides are used to my eccentricities so Kathy didn't bat an eyelid when I suggested the shot.

We had more of this lovely blue sky, cars that look like they were taken from Al Capones garage and a HUGE dog! The staff (especially the Manager) of the Castle deserves special mention for their helpfulness and we had a lovely day and a lovely drive home with the windows down making the most of the nice weather.

Leah and Brett

The sun was splitting the trees on Saturday and there wasn't a cloud in the sky when Leah arrived at the church looking stunning (as you can see). Two of the guys had managed to slip off for a sneaky pint unnoticed, much to the annoyance of the groomsmen who thought they should have been invited!


The Minister was a man after my own heart, even going as far as singing the tune from my favorite Disney ride 'It's a small world' so all in all it was one of those perfect days!

Geraldine and Gary (also featuring Rebecca)

It always amazes me how children find the energy to run at 110% al day with only a 30 second nap, Rebecca was no exception.

The Wedding Ceremony took place at the Craigavon Civic Center (which looks great now that the refurb is finished) with Photo's at Peatlands Park and reception at the Carngrove.
