Don’t Lose Precious Wedding Moments To Guests With Cameras

Wedding guests with cameras is a sensitive subject. Personally I don’t mind guests with cameras. They are usually doing their own thing, taking photos from their seats or of themselves during the party. What needs to be mentioned is when a guest is also a professional or enthusiast photographer and brings their professional equipment to your wedding when you’ve hired another photographer for the job. A guest should never interfere with or take over your photographer’s job.

A wedding day is full of precious moments that cannot be recreated. Don’t let those moments be lost by other people getting in the way of your photographer or videographer.

Most wedding guests know not to distract from your photographers job but if you know that a guest plans, or has been asked, to come along and take photos during the entire wedding day it’s worth kindly asking them to leave the camera at home and join you as your guest. I have found that when another professional camera shows up at a wedding the person behind the camera feels they have a responsibility to photograph your wedding day and quite often they get in the way of your photographer. I speak from experience.

Don’t let your wedding album have missed moments. Hire a wedding photographer you trust and let your guests be guests.

A destination wedding at its finest. Tessa and Sean had one hot 🔥 day in Spain.

Collaboration, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, is the action of working with someone to produce something.

In my nearly 2 decades of photographing weddings I have a rhythm, I know what key moments make a wedding, and I have my own approach on the day to achieve what I want for each couple. But above all else, collaboration with each of you is the most important part of the process. I’m here to listen to your needs and tailor my approach so we achieve the experience and end product you wish to have. The best results always come when we’re in sync.

Scenes from iconic London with Julie and David.

I spent two days with them and their crew traipsing from one iconic spot to the next.

Julies choice of dress change (a one off @colleenatwoodofficial original for a demure ceremony look and sequin fitted gown for the after party) elevated each part of the day.

I was not the popular girl in school. Never the overachiever. Certainly not an academic. I gravitated toward art and sport. I never wanted to stand out in the crowd. I felt comfortable behind the camera.

I love weddings and photography. I love the artistic and physical aspect of documenting a wedding day. Getting recognition was not the goal, but it’s beyond words to have it. I just want to keep producing work my clients love.

Thank you @wezoree for including me on this list. There is easily a mountain of other names on this talented island that deserve this honour.

Repost @destinationido {‘After their engagement, Claire, a dual citizen of Ireland and the United States, and TJ, an American with deep Irish roots felt compelled to plan their wedding in a place uniquely special to them both. A 45-minute drive from the Dublin city center, Luttrellstown Castle played the storybook setting for Claire and TJ’s wedding day.’}

Go check out Claire and TJ’s full 3 day wedding celebrations over on Destination I Do. What an honour to shoot the first ever wedding celebration hosted in the Trinity College Long Room. This had to be the cherry on top.

J&H did things their own way and incorporated private vows in the small chapel ahead of their outdoor ceremony at The Cliff at Lyons estate. It was intimate with only myself and the celebrant in attendance. A real honour to be included in private moments like this.
