Sharon & David's wedding at Ballintubber abbey & The Lodge at Ashford, Mayo

A sneak peak into one more of the weddings I covered over Christmas. Sharon and David are a fantastic couple. Great fun to work with and so easy going. We started the day off at the Lodge at Ashford in Cong where they were both getting ready.
The ceremony took place at the beautiful Ballintubber abbey, Mayo.

As you can see from some of the photos that it wasn't the dryist  of days. (but I think it did rain for nearly all of the weddings I covered over Christmas). We didnt manage to get any photos outside the grounds of Ballintubber abbey with the rain being a bit too heavy. Luckily enough there was a break in the bad weather to pop outside and get a nice portrait when we got back to The Lodge at Ashford in Cong.

Elaine & Matthew's wedding at Islandeady church & Knockranny House Hotel, Westport, Mayo.

Back at St. Patrick's church in Islandeady this time for Elaine & Matthew's wedding. It was wet at times, windy and quite chilly too.  But I guess we wouldnt have got such a dramatic photo of them outside Knockranny House Hotel with Croagh Patrick in the background. We were lucky enough to have a few minutes clearing of the clouds to get this as the sun was just about to go down.

Ive done so much photography for weddings around Westport where we wanted to get Croagh Patrick in the background and each time it comes out so different. Probably down to the different times of day, year & weather.

Fair play to Elaine & Matthew, a really lovely couple to work with.
