Wedding Website and Galleries

2012-01-24T22:12:00.000Z

Check out my wedding galleries here. Each wedding has its own website which will give you a sense of what yours will be like when you book me for your wedding photography. We can add maps, menu's, bridal party pictures and profiles, information on the hens and stags parties and maybe a bit of a romantic article on how you met. Sound good! http://client.velvetstrand.ie/

Wedding Fairs ( Big and Small)

2012-01-23T14:24:00.000Z

I was reflecting on conversations I had with many couples over the past few weeks at local hotel venues and at the Wedding Journal Show in Citywest. I have to say that the big shows do give you great exposure but these are so many photographers at these events it is very difficult for couples to choose one. The mind gets saturated and you really cant see the wood for the trees seeing so many options.

I really do prefer smaller hotel wedding fairs rather than the really big ones. You have so much time to speak with couples without feelingl rushed and I feel they themselves get a better sense of me and my approach to wedding photography.

Do you have any views on this?

Marine Hotel, Sutton - Wedding Fair

2012-01-22T19:20:00.000Z

Just back in from the Marine Hotel Wedding Fair. It was a slow day, but got some bookings and plenty of interest in my photography and wedding packages from couples who do not have dates set. It just shows that even with smaller numbers attending it is the quality rather than quantity that makes the day a business success.
