Bronwyn & Misha/ Kilkea Castle/ Wedding Video
Bronwyn and Misha\’s story started on a boat in London over a few glasses of red wine. What ensued was a whirlwind romance; Bronwyn was leaving for Australia and they realised that this was something special and so they had to make long distance work. Fast forward to the Golden Gate Bridge one of Misha\’s favorite places in the whole world, he went down on one knee with a gummy ring and of course Bronwyn said \”Yes!\”.

We love shooting in France, it’s a magical place for us. The stunning Chateau Rigaud, surrounded by vineyards drenched in the golden glow of a summers evening. Brian and Kate celebrating together, the joy, the laughter, and that dress! Photographer/ Aspect Photography
Millhouse Slane / Ciara and Graham
Ciara and Graham set out to plan a wedding that reflected all the traits they most admired in one another. They had talked about marriage almost since they first met four years ago, and when their day arrived it was everything they’d hoped it would be – an easy going celebration of their love for one another filled with laughter, music and delicious food and drink!
While Ciara got readied herself in her fabulous dress, Graham spent the morning playing pétanque and racing inflatable cows before donning his suit. There was a lovely moment that we were able to catch as Ciara met her father outside of the venue, and then it was on with the ceremony.
The venue for the day was the Millhouse in Slane, a lovely, intimate place with an aesthetic that perfectly complimented the wedding party’s look. The couple had written vows that were touching, funny and shone a light on their love for one another. Each spoke to the other as if it were just the two of them in the room.
It was a real treat for us to be asked to film this wedding. Often couples struggle to relax and enjoy their day, but Graham and Ciara were able to put the stress to one side and have a great time. Their sense of fun was evident throughout and after the ceremony and a hearty dinner, the couple danced into the night surrounded by their friends and family.

Clonabreany, Claire and Stuart
Once upon a time, Stuart’s friends warned him against asking Claire out because, according to them, she was too tall for him. Fortunately, he ignored their dodgy advice and after their epic first date at the zoo it was clear that they had something special. Although she initially refused to be his girlfriend – because who needs labels?? – Claire eventually gave in and even made the ultimate sacrifice in the name of love when she swapped her heels for flats to prove Stuart’s friends wrong once and for all!
A year ago they got engaged at the Meeting of the Waters in Wicklow and we were delighted to be asked to join them for their wedding at the amazing Clonabreany House. After the ceremony there were drinks and photos outside, and even a spot of giant Jenga for those who were that way inclined.
When the Jenga was concluded and dinner had been served and enjoyed, Stuart stepped up and gave a fantastic speech. He was sweet, funny and spoke from the heart, and it was clear that the couple were well and truly head over heels for one another.
We loved all the quirky touches the couple threw in to make this day feel really unique. We were particularly struck by the bride arriving in a taxi! This wedding had a real sense of fun, it reflected perfectly the personalities of the bride and groom and it made for a fantastic, happy video that we’re really proud of.

Hibernian Club, Hannah & Adam
We first met Hannah and Adam while shooting at the wedding of a relative of theirs, so we were delighted when they called wanting to work with us too. We were even more pleased when they told us their location – St Stephens Green in Dublin! It’s not so often that we get to go into town for a wedding, and this particular spot offers a great contrast between the trees and grass and, well, the green of the park, and the surrounding city.
After the knot had been tied, we left the guests at the Stephens Green Hibernian club and took the chance to nip off to the Dublin coastline with the bride and groom. It was lovely to watch the couple enjoying themselves and taking in the scenery, and they managed to look great despite the sea breeze doing all sorts of wild things with their hair!
later in the evening we got one of our favourite shots of the entire video – the couple taking a minute away from the party that was still in full swing to stand outside, just the two of them with the city lights twinkling away in the background, and the night sky above.
It was a real pleasure working with these guys, we had a blast from start to finish and are delighted with how the video turned out. Our big day out in the city was certainly one to remember, and we’re sure that Hannah and Adam feel the same!

France, Siobhan & Ronan
Siobhan & Ronan
Coup de foudre means love at first sight in French, and that’s what Ronan felt when he met Siobhan. He first laid eyes on her at an 80s disco in her hometown of Melbourne – Siobhan was rocking blue eyeshadow and a side-ponytail, and was almost definitely busting a move to Men At Work singing about coming from a land down under. They’ve since relocated to Ronan’s native Ireland, but settled on the sunnier climes of Provence in the south of France to tie the knot.
And what a day it was! In the middle of a French heatwave guests were treated to a gorgeous outdoor ceremony under the shady trees in the gardens of la Bastide des Barattes, and after the sun went down there was an al fresco dinner and plenty of French wine.
We often say how much we love an international wedding – the different cultures coming together creates something unique and special every time, and this was no different. Siobhan, Ronan and their friends and family had a ball, bringing together the Irish and the Australian and mixing it together with a pinch of French je ne sais quoi…
This was our first foray into France, and the entire crew came along for the ride. We loved the whole trip, and especially enjoyed working with Siobhan and Ronan to capture what was a wonderful weekend that will live long in the memory.

Ember & Brian
Ember and Brian are the sort of people we love to work with! It rained all day but that didn\’t stop them from enjoying it and making the day their own.It\’s just so easy to document a couple so honestly in love!
Priscila & Tom
Juntos es mejor means together is better, and we couldn\’t think of a more fitting phrase to describe Priscila and Tom. Their story is truly amazing, a tale of love and loss and love-all-over-again spanning more than ten years and, as far as we know, four countries, we expected a lot from this wedding and it did not disappoint!
Guests arrived from London, Switzerland, France, and even Singapore to be part of what was a really special day. The whole event was at the incredible Hacienda Los Angeles, a sprawling, classic Spanish hacienda just outside of Seville complete with décor that you won’t find anywhere in the world outside of Andalucía. The mix of traditional Spanish and Moorish culture at the hacienda was the perfect setting for a wedding that was equally as culturally diverse as the venue!
With Tom being a Londoner and Priscila a Sevillana, the wedding was like none we\’ve seen before. Traditions on both sides were scrapped and some brand new ones were created, leading to a truly memorable experience for all present. The ceremony was followed by dinner and, after the first dance, the party started and didn\’t stop until well after 5am! Even the DJ joined in with the multicultural theme, mixing wedding disco classics from England and Spain with all manner of other influences.
