View John and Orla’s Wedding Collection.

When I arrived in Ireland I couldn’t believe that it was summer and how heavy it was raining. I don’t mind cloudy weather and love working with natural elements like the wind and scenery, but buckets of rain was going to be an issue. I think we are so spoiled in South Africa with the best climate ever!! Anyway, to cut a short story long, on September 5th, the weather held through and we were blessed with a perfect day.

The wedding ceremony was held at a Catholic church that was built by Orla’s grandfather, and the day they were married was exactly 50 years to the day that the first wedding ceremony was held there. I thought that was pretty amazing.

Thank you so much to John and Orla for having me at your most special day. I had so much fun getting to know you and visiting one of the most stunning spots ever.

Many blessings with your recent marriage, and congratulations.

I arrived back from beautiful Kerry in Ireland yesterday. I couldn’t wait to download all the images that were captured from my trip to Ireland for the wedding of amazing Orla and John.

I was collected from Cork airport by Orla’s Aunt Kathlyn and for the next two hours we drove and chatted about things until we arrived at Orla’s family home near Kenmare in Kerry. The location was so stunning and lush. Flying over Ireland tends to have a view of clouds, and just clouds…from the sky (like cause it rains 24/7), but coming through the clouds you slowly see the green fertile farm lands appear beneath and you know, your in Ireland.
Wow, wow, thats all I could think when I finally arrived at the house, and also what was to be the location of the wedding reception.

Day two started with meeting John and Orla in the morning to discuss the upcoming wedding day. We also decided to go and view a few of the locations and stop by the church (which was built by Orla’s Grandfather 50 years ago).

Along the way we just had to capture a few portraits. John told me he loved the shot I took a while ago of Sariette and Zane sitting on the bench. So I promised to recreate it….kind of!!

Ive posted some pics here, but there are many more to come, from the landscapes of Kenmare County and ofcourse the main event. The extremely cool couples wedding from September 5th. I hope you love these initial shots.
