Getting asked to shoot anyones wedding always feels like an honour. But when the people getting married are two of your closest friends it’s that little bit more special. Barry and Caroline tied the knot, in one of my favourite spots in Ireland, Dingle, surrounded by their closest friends and family back in September.
There was so much to love about this day…the first look on the edge of a cliff, overlooking Dingle Bay, the most personal ceremony you can imagine (Barry and Caroline’s friend Dave was the celebrant, the first dance in the rain…oh and the best man’s speech was pretty incredible too 😉 (yes that is me gracing your screens.)
I hope you all enjoy what I will always remember as a pretty special day.
