I am just getting round to posting some photos of Lisa and Shane's wedding on 25th February just gone. This wedding took place in Kinnitty Castle, a gothic revival castle situated just outside Kinnity village, Co Offaly, against the magical backdrop of the Slieve Bloom Mountains. Kinnitty is a wonderful venue to photograph in and although this was a winter wedding we were not short of a backdrop within which to capture relaxed and emotive images. Both Lisa and Shane were up for some fun and really enjoyed themselves having left the organisation and finer details up to Annie Byrne from Ashlinn Events, their wedding coordinator.
aidanoliver photoshoot - Announcing Digital Times @ Alternatives Recruitment /
Just after receiving our finished and edited photograph which was used to announce a new working relationship between Alternatives Marketing and Digital Times, dated 17th February 2011.
We undertook this photoshoot in situ at Alternatives head office a couple of days beforehand having brought our mobile studio to the site. Our clients were looking for something a bit different but not too dramatic, something interesting to showcase this exciting launch and the chosen photograph encapsulated this brief perfectly. Read more about this launch here.
Post production work and digital editing work credits are given to the digital artist Phil McDarby, a creative genius in his own right.
Frank and Sara Wedding - 4th February 2011 in The Royal Marine Hotel Dun Laoghaire /
Just after uploading these images of Frank and Sara's wedding in the Royal Marine Hotel, Dun Laoghaire on Friday just gone. The ceremony was in the Holy Cross church in Dundrum. The weather was very blustery which created some difficult conditions within which to photograph in, although thankfully it was not the severe snow we have seen of late. Does this look like Dublin in mid gale swing?. Both Frank and Sara were remarkably relaxed and a pleasure to work with. The day went smoothly and we stayed until the first dance to capture the spirit of their wedding. Winter weddings are difficult to work at times but this wedding was a sheer pleasure. Experience helps the seasoned photographer make difficult decisions easier for all concerned and I thank Frank and Sara for their attitude and gentle disposition. I know that they will have a great honeymoon.
