We managed to get some great photos in both locations and had a bit of fun with the restaurant shots and captured some romance at the university.

Enjoy!

After her initial excitement wore off she realised she needed to look after her clients and do something about her summer weddings, as she wouldn’t be able to shoot them herself. This is where I come in. Bobbi shot me a mail to ask would I be free to shoot her weddings and willing to do so. I was thrilled she asked me and didn’t hesitate to say yes even though it was a very daunting thing to take on.

Bobbi, thank you for trusting me with your business and clients. It has been an honour to shoot for Roberta Cotter Photography and every client of yours I have worked with so far has been a pleasure!

This is Helen and Paul. I shot their engagement session on Good Friday and their wedding earlier this month. More on their beautiful wedding later.

For now, here are some of the engagement photos. All photos shot by me for  Roberta Cotter Photography and all processing is by Rubistyle.

Ever since we met and they booked me for their wedding I have been excited to shoot their engagement session. They were up for anything and even wanted to bring their dog Roxy along for the shoot! I got even more excited when they returned their session questionnaire and there were promises of a Mini, some sports action and a trip to the lake with a bottle of Champagne.

Kerrie and Aidan, I hope you like your photos. I had a fun couple of hours with you and cannot wait to shoot your wedding in July.

PS. Yes, I did have trouble narrowing down the images to post!

This is my second favourite shot of the day. I love how Aidan only has eyes for Kerrie and Kerrie only has eyes for Roxy and Roxy only has eyes for Aidan. So cute!

This is my absolute favourite shot. So sweet.

Kerrie is from Kildare where GAA rules and Aidan is from Tipperary where hurling is king. I think we got some great shots of them playing.

The guest book below was designed from this engagement session, and you can also see another guest book I have designed from this engagement session.

I have shot some stunning weddings, met many lovely families, their babies and much loved pets.

I am looking forward to doing it all again in 2010.

I have put together a slideshow of some of my favourite images from 2009. I hope you like them as much as I do.

Susan and Allan, I hope you guys had as much fun as I did! I look forward to being your wedding photographer in September.

Engagement sessions are included for all weddings I photograph. Please get in touch if you would like to know more about Rubistyle wedding photography.

John and Sue, it was lovely to meet you finally! I am so sorry the weather gods did not cooperate. We had plans to take some shots in the grounds of Bloomfield House and also the nearby Belvedere House Gardens and Park but we were rained out. We did get some shots in the hotel and just outside it and discussed some great ideas of where we may shoot if the weather doesn’t agree with us on the wedding day.

Safe trip back to England on the ferry and I hope you enjoyed your first time in front of my lens!

Today I received a guestbook back from the printer for my wedding this coming weekend in Belle Isle castle, Fermanagh.
I am over the moon at the quality of this book. It is 20 pages, 8×8 inches with hinged pages which mean they lay flat for signing.
The pages are lovely and thick and just ooze quality. There is plenty of room around the photos for your wedding guests to sign the book.

If you are thinking of getting an engagement session done (you don’t have to be engaged or getting married, these sessions suit all couples) and would like a press printed book to remember the occasion, then please get in touch. I can bring one along to your consultation or session. For now, here are some photos of the book.

They thought it would be cool to incorporate their love of rugby into their engagement session and a rugby ball was one of many props that they brought to their session. I will say no more and let you look at the photos now – I will only add that I was delighted that Ireland went on to win that evening for obvious reasons of course, but also because I think that now these photos of their session are so much more meaningful and memorable for them.

I am travelling up to Northern Ireland to shoot their wedding in Belle Isle Castle this coming weekend. I can’t wait, these guys have style!

We started the session at Captain’s Hill, Lough Owel.

Then we headed to Multyfarnham

And we finished up at the Mullingar Rugby Club
