Wedding Highlights Laura and Derek

What a wonderful day for a wedding we got by the end of October, couldn’t have asked for nothing better!
Couple and families were very nice and Best man made me laugh and cry simultaneously with his speech, very nice one!
This time I had my friend and professional wedding photographer Luis Faustino as my second cameraman.
Having a second crew member makes all the difference in capturing more details of the day.
He was a very good help and it really added value and quality to the wedding DVD.
I wish that my clients could understand the difference a two cameraman set-up makes in the quality of the final product and could allow for this budget on their Wedding Film.
Here’s how the highlights came out.

Marcela & Tomasz Wedding Highlights


The Wedding of Marcela and Tomasz was a breeze of fresh air with a double wonderful photoshoot on the castle and beach of Malahide.

With a Brazilian Bride and a Polish Groom, party and drinks where guaranteed.

I had been to a Polish Wedding before and don’t use to drink while working, otherwise would have been completely drunk with all the toasting with Vodka shots during the meal.

The party after was very colourful with all the shining hats and masks of a true Brazilian Carnival.
All and all, a very cheerful and entertaining experience.

Have a sneak a peek on the video below.

Marcela and Tomasz, I wish you all the possible happiness and best of luck with the new arrival.

Leixlip Manor & Gardens Videographer's Review


With over 1700 Weddings since 1996 the Leixlip Manor and Gardens has established itself as one of the most popular Wedding venues in Leinster.
The Manor is surrounded by 29 acres of parkland, manicured lawns and a beautiful stone walled Victorian Garden perfect for a relaxing walk and amazing Photo & Video shoot.
It’s amazing that this oasis of tranquillity is situated only minutes from Dublin city!
With only a Wedding a day, couples can rest assured of full privacy, dedication and attention.
The team, under the coordination of Lesley Daniels and Christian Schmelter, is exceptionally professional and well organised; while the couple went for the photo and video session in the Victorian gardens, the Drawing room used for the ceremony was transformed into reception room so fast it looked like magic.
It was a pleasure working in such an environment and I would truly recommend this venue as a ‘must see’ to any couple.

Karen & Conor Wedding Video


The 20th April was a bright day with promises of rain and even thunder, although never during the ceremony were we bothered by the bad weather.

I arrived at Leixlip Manor and Gardens a good hour before the first gests to get all the establishing shoots from the house and the beautiful Victorian gardens.

Both gests and the team at Leixlip Manor made me feel very at ease and treated me attentively.

I started shooting the wedding ceremony in stress! The bride arrived through a different door and I almost lost her entering the aisle; these are the moments when you have to be fast thinking and adapt very quickly to unexpected events.

After that, all went smoothly. My two camera setup got all the ceremony covered from start to finish and the wireless microphone enabled me to have a very good audio feed through the ceremony and greetings.

There was a picture session with everybody and after, the couple went for a relaxing walk in the Victorian gardens. We came back just in time to see how effective the team at Leixlip Manor is! The ceremony room had been transformed into reception room so fast it looked like magic.

Second moment of stress!!! Nobody warned me about the start of the speeches... next time I’ll hold the microphone for safekeeping... again think fast and act even faster.

The first dance came out very nice, although next time I’ll keep my second camera higher than any guest’s head... at the last minute someone just got in front of it. Thanks to two camera setup I had it covered anyway.

Karen and Conor, I wish you will be even happier than you have been in the past seven years.

Ps: The result is on the attached video, enjoy the highlights.

Engagement Video

Engagement Video also known as Save-the-date video

One of the new trends in the pre-wedding process is the addition of engagement and save-the-date videos. Many brides (and grooms!) are looking for something more creative than traditional engagement photography. What a better way to remember this time in your life than a creative video?

You will get one DVD of a 2-5 minute video of you and your fiancĂ©, filmed on a location of your choice (two hours aprox). We can tell your love story… you can use it as a save-the-date video to save hundreds on postcards and stamps, and we can do a mini interview session with you and your fiancĂ© – it’s up to you!

You can choose from a preconceived engagement video where you can customize text and soundtrack that after will be put together with images from your video session or you can option for an interview type video.

Preconceived engagement video - €50

Interview type video - €100

If the client stays with us for his/hers wedding video there will be a €50 discount on the Diamonds and Velvet packages.
