On 12/12/12, this blog will be four years old! And what a bad blogger am I! While all around me, blogs about every imaginable thing, I have been neglecting mine.:( I’m not one for resolutions but I will *try* to update more often. You can catch more recent updates on my facebook page!

I shall leave you with a few photos from today’s shoot. A little bit different, but I am all for expanding my repertoire.

Summer!

I’ve been a very bad blogger, haven’t I? Let me assure you, I haven’t dropped off the face of the earth (although it sometimes feels like I’m buried under mountains of editing!). I do update my facebook page a little bit more regularly, so please head over for a peek.

In the meantime, a few bits from the last few months.

Max and Anna Marie, a Winter Handfasting

Why would I shoot a wedding during the worst winter in the last 10 years with the most deplorable driving conditions AND 37 weeks pregnant? Well, for the love of, well, love… What else?

Max asked me to help with his wedding photographs a few months back and knowing how late in the game I would be by the time it rolled around, I made no promises, but boy was I glad to be part of their wonderful day. The ceremony was a traditional handfasting and it was held at Markree Castle in Co Sligo. Very intimate and very personal, it was a great experience. I hope these have done their day some justice!

Flowers and champers, check.

One radiant bride, check.

One gorgeous gown, check.

A hope and a prayer, check.

Attentive ~~brideslaves~~ bridesmaids, check.

A tiny bit of help, check!

An excited groom, check.

One moment with dad.

A kiss. One of many to come.

Sneaking away.

Bestmen!

Mr and Mrs!

I told you there were more kisses!

A quick retouch.

Ahhhhhhhhh. Gorgeous cake, made by the groom’s mum!

It’s so hard to choose which photos to include here but I hope it’s given you a flavour of their day.

Check back soon!

Jess <3 Conor

Sneak Peek…Ronan and Karen

A few more photos from Ronan and Karen’s wonderful wedding.

Hello, baby.

Was there ever a more relaxed groom?

Or a prettier bridesmaid?

Radiant!

More soon!

What’s up, pussycat?

So, continuing on from my last posts’ feline theme, i present, Gabriella kittycat. As you can see, it’s a dry run of her halloween costume. I normally make them but this was a present from my SIL. Needless to say, she loved it and I couldn’t get a great picture because she was so excited showing it off!

Baby Love!

I know it’s virtually the same as the sneak peek but i’m totally loving these so this is a very slightly different one. Who could resist those baby blues?

Thank You!

A quick thank you card that I made up for Eileen. I’m still working on the set from yesterday’s session (was it only yesterday? I feel like it was a week ago!) so keep checking in!

I’ve had butterflies in my stomach these last few days and it was either a really bad tummy bug or a sense of what was to come. Things are happening and my mind is full of the possibilities! I don’t want to jinx myself just yet. But watch this space.

Shoes, Glorious Shoes!

From one of my first jobs this year for Dance Supplies Europe. I really must do more product photography, even if it’s just to get the practice in.

I’ve been a bit swamped and haven’t got my workflow thing going on so I thought i’d post this to inject a bit of colour to the blog.

In other news, I’ve ordered my new business cards from MOO. I CAN’T wait to get them
