Lucas and Ida's Wedding by Aidan Oliver Weldon

It has taken me a while to update my blog having migrated to my current Squarespace platform so I will be updating more often to keep up to date as I have missed blogging of late.

One of my more memorable weddings last year was Lucas and Ida's - a wonderful couple who were married in The Anglers Rest which is located along the beautiful Strawberry Beds in Chapelizod. I lived a stones throw from here for a good number of years and was well able to advise regarding the best location for some relaxed photos - where else but the Pheonix Park.

The couple decided to do things a little differently pre ceremony; they had a little picnic in the park which was simply inspired - coupled with the weather being as good as you will get in May. Following this, a civil ceremony which was set in the upstairs room of the Anglers Rest followed by a delicate and delicious meal presented by the extra helpful staff and management at the venue. 

Have a look at their day below and you will see the smiles, the laughter and the odd tear as they celebrated their day with not just each other but those that meant much to them. As weddings go this one was a real pleasure to photograph and it is the reason why I do what I do.

Wedding Journal Show, Citywest, Dublin, 10th & 11th January 2015 by Aidan Oliver Weldon

Here are a few of our postcards we exhibited at the recent Wedding Journal Show in Citywest, 10th and 11th January 2015. We had the privilege of photographing the event for Penton Publications along with manning a busy stand which was thoroughly enjoyable. We slept three days later when all images were handed over.

The postcards went down a storm, they were something different and the general feedback was extremely  positive from couples. They commented on the quality of the imagery along with the fact that it provided a talking point, particularly as I used famous photographer quotes from such as Ansel Adams, Tim Walker, Alfred Eisenstaedt amongst many more. 

The purpose of the postcards was trifold:

1) to show some beautiful imagery across the photographic sphere of weddings 

2) to enable me to take down details from couples who had not booked a photographer 

3) to meet at some date in the future over a coffee (on me...) to discuss each wedding 

What a show, what quality suppliers and what a weekend!. Well done to all who exhibited...
