The Blog

Last year we wrote about the 5 questions we were asked most at Wedding Fairs and believe it or not we have been asked  them all again.

Some new ones we have been asked

1 Do you take family photographs? The answer is of course yes we do, seemingly some of the newer photographers don’t think they matter, well they do. As a father of three children who have got married and one getting married this year the family picture is the most important picture for me.

2 How do we get in contact with you after the wedding? This seemed a very strange question to be asked but we heard some horrendous stories about couples not been able to contact their photographer after wedding. Our studio opens 5 days a week or by appointment in the evenings or on our days off.

Last years questions were as follows

5th Price. This was a surprise that it was so far down the list, but we were not asked this as much as would think.

4th The Venue. Have we done weddings in their chosen church and venue. We have done weddings in most of the hotels, houses or Castles in our area and anyone we got emails from we sent them out links to pictures for their venues. If couples book us for places we have not photographed we take a trip and pick out the best spots just like Martina and John’s wedding in Mount Juliet in Kilkenny last year https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.885619741474798.1073741934.105610882809025&type=3

3rd Do we do video. The answer to this is no, we think you should concentrate on what you do best and for us its photography, we leave the video to people who specialise in this. Your wedding photographs and video will be handed down from generation to generation and its just common sense not to take chances with these memories that you won’t be able re create

2nd Other wedding suppliers. Yes this came in 2nd, we were surprised ! After photographing weddings for so long we have become experts on which car to book, what flowers to have ,what type of dress will suit, colour bridesmaids dresses, suit hire for men and a lot of the couples have asked us about which hotels or castles would be best for photographs and the service they provide on the wedding days.
