Brad in Ireland 2015

In September of this year, my friend Brian and I headed to Ireland on a fantastic trip. We started with a very quick overnight stay in Dublin, rented a car and headed down South to County Kerry (with a quick stop in Cork for lunch). Kerry was the site of the reason for our trip - the wedding of Laura & Glen. 

After having a fantastic time at the wedding, we headed off the next morning to Limerick, then Galway. The next morning we zipped up to the North to spend a day in Letterkenny (the home of my family ancestors!). Off to Belfast for a day then on to Dublin. Dropped the car off and spent 3 more days there. We then flew over to London and spent 3 days there before flying back home.

It was a trip of a lifetime and I'm so glad I have some photos to show for it. Take a look at some of my personal favourites below.

Laura & Glen - A Wedding in Ireland

I have always wanted to travel to Ireland. My family heritage is Irish and I have longed to visit the place where my ancestors came from. Well, I was able to make that happen thanks to Laura & Glen this year!

Laura & Glen met in New Orleans while Glen was on a trip from Calgary with his buddies and Laura was visiting from Ireland with her girlfriends. The stars truly aligned for these two to find each other and fall in love.

I used to work with Glen at TELUS many years ago and when he messaged me to discuss his wedding in Ireland and the opportunity to be their photographer arose, I was over the moon! Not only would I get to capture the moments from Glen's big day, but I would also be able to tour Ireland. Dave was not able to make the trip with me, but my friend Brian came along to hold lights and camera bags etc. He did a fantastic job and I know he had a great time... and they enjoyed having him there as well. I'll be writing about my Ireland adventures in an upcoming post, so for now, please take a look at the gallery below to see some of the photos from the wedding held in Killarney, County Kerry. The reception was held at the Dunloe Hotel which had a castle on their grounds - and yes, I know there are several photos below with this castle but come on, it's a castle! How could I not take a million photos of it??.

I'm so very happy for Laura & Glen. And I am honoured that I was able to be there to photograph their day. Thanks for having me!
