I had a chance to do Gabrielle and Philip’s engagement shoot in New York last year and we really hit it off and I was really excited to capture their wedding at one of my favourite wedding venues, Redcastle Hotel. The girls had fun in the morning as they laughed and shared a few jokes together. New York is my favourite spot and I love New Yorkers with their great spirit and sense of humour.

I met Philip and the guys at the stunning St. Pius X Church in Moville. He was super excited to see his bride and throughout the service the couple exchanged lots of looks and smiles. After visiting Philip’s home for photos and some tea & sandwiches, we made our way to the Redcastle Hotel were the couple celebrated with their closest friends and family.

The speeches were phenomenal, with the Americans (Gabrielle’s dad and Maid of Honour, Macailagh) proving a hard act to follow, but everyone rose to the challenge and the speeches really were some of the best I’ve heard. When the band began to play the couple shared a beautiful first dance before being joined with their guests to dance the night away!

Gabrielle looked amazing.

Philip looked very dashing!
