Part 1 of Annierose & Conors wedding

After the ceremony the party was underway.  There was tennis and jenga enjoyed by all.  The wedding breakfast was beautifully catered.  Thanks to the couples patience to my enthusiasm combined with it being a small wedding I was afforded the luxury to whisk them away on a multiple occasions and make the most of the gorgeous surroundings.  The day flew by and soon they were cutting the cake and the band prepared.  Their first dance was the precursor to a lively dance floor enjoyed by all attendees.  It was a perfect ending to a extraordinary day.

The following day I had a lovely wood fired pizza lunch with the wedding party in the walled garden.  On wedding days I tend to be rather busy and unable to chat much, the following day provided a wonderful opportunity to be social and a chance to get to know the families better.

I had a slight accident with my own drone just days before the wedding and her father Donald was kind enough to let me borrow his.  The following day he was also kind enough to help his daughter get into the flower pond for one of my crazier ideas.  Truly Annierose couldn’t have been more adventurous rocking the frock as she was whiling to lay down in the pond.  The sun came out as well for a wee bit and we got a couple more photos of them.  It was a wonderful few days joining two delightful families.


Barwhillanty Wedding photography

I had the pleasure of meeting Annierose & Conor a few years ago at her sister’s wedding.  I was flattered when they  asked me to photograph their wedding as well.  Annierose & Kyle both grew up at Barwhillanty and wanted their weddings to be in the beautiful garden that was their childhood playground.  Due to the travel situation it was difficult to meet up in person and thus we had a lovely evening video chatting.  There were a lot of uncertainties due to travel constrictions but I knew I was going to find a way to get back to Scotland photograph the wedding.

I was excited to see their family again and get back to Barwhillanty.  The day started out photographing Conor and his parents in the Stables, which was quite fitting as it was the house where Annnierose grew up.  Conor and his parents were calm and happy and after finishing getting dressed they chatted with his sister who regrettably could not attend.  Shortly there after I was whisked away by Oscar to see Annierose getting ready.

The bridal family was also happy and relaxed and I was quite happy with the different lighting possibilities within the house.  Soon Annierose was ready and looking stunning.  I was grateful to have a bit of extra time to take some bridal portraits.  The ceremony was a lovely one broadcast to their friends and family who were unable to make it due to the restrictions.

I met John 11 years ago when he was kind enough to host a friend and I in Ireland as we made our way traveling around Europe.  I greatly enjoyed his sarcasm and humor and we kept in touch visiting each other wherever we both moved.  We hadn’t seen each other in person in a while but we kept in contact and I had been hearing about “Frenchy” for quite some time and finally had the pleasure of meeting Delphine last year when I visited Dublin and spent a glorious banter-filled weekend with the two of them.  I remember thinking they were perfect for each other and I was happy they found each other.

I arrived in Ireland Thursday and spent the evening with the two of them.  They were kind enough to arrange my way over to Doolin with their friend Gerry.  Their wedding day was over in a blur.  I started off with Delphine getting ready with her mum, sister, and nieces.  Everyone in the room was easy to photograph as they were relaxed and cheerful.  Her nieces were quite inquisitive and their curiosity provided fantastic moments.  I quickly ran up to meet my friend and took some photos of the groom getting ready as well as a few family photos.

Their lovely humanist ceremony was starting and over before we knew it with some heartfelt and humorous moments shared by all.  We had been discussing what to as far as weather the past few days and since the sun was out after the ceremony we decided to seize the opportunity.  Their friend Javed (and now mine) kindly drove us to various locations around Doolin.  It was blustery to say the least for the couples photos but extreme weather can make for dramatic photos if the couple is up for braving the cold and these two certainly were.

Part 2 of Jessi & Eric’s wedding

I met Jessi many years ago when she first moved to Bozeman for university.  I had known of her for a few years prior because I had previously been adopted into her cousin’s family and had already become good friends with her sister Sarah (See Sarah’s wedding here).   Jessi is a delightful person who I liked immediately.  She has a grasp on what’s important and doesn’t sweat the small things always keeping life in perspective.  I didn’t realize it until I was told the story at the wedding but I was there the evening that Eric first showed interest in Jessi.  Unfortunately for both, I sabotaged that evening for them and they would have to wait.  Jessi didn’t know it but I had given myself the responsibility of being her older cousin/brother and decided the night was over, thus I bear-hugged picked up Jessi from the couch (where Eric was sitting and talking to her) and carried her to the car and drove all of us home.  I soon moved away from Bozeman and didn’t see Eric again for 5 years.  Hearing this story after I had just photographed their wedding was hilarious for me and I was delighted Eric’s persistence paid off.
