Wedding photographer dublin & Ireland
 
 
Your wedding day is not a photoshoot. It's your day, with your people, and it should feel exactly like that.
I'll be there from the start, mingling with your guests, making friends, probably on the dancefloor, and catching everything as it happens. The real stuff. The stuff you'll want to remember not just how it looked but how it actually felt.
We'll get your family portraits and couple portraits done, I promise, and we'll get them done quickly so you can get back to enjoying the best day of your life. The rest of the day is yours. I'll take care of the rest.
Big wedding or small, traditional or absolutely not, Dublin city or the middle of nowhere, I'm here for all of it!

5 STAR REVIEWS!
Deirdre was amazing start to finish for our Wedding day. She captured the most beautiful, breathtaking shots. Better than I could have imagined. I explained to Deirdre I didn’t want set up shots, I wanted it all to be as natural as possible and she delivered while making it fun too!
She also made us feel at ease from the get go, with her warm and friendly presence. Such a lovely person! She really added to our day, and made it that extra bit special.
I can’t recommended Deirdre enough, she is amazing at what she does and so talented at her craft. Thank you Deidre ❤️
5 star reviews!
I worked with Deirdre during the summer on the wedding of Gillian & Kevin. She was a dream to work with. She captured the real moments of the ceremony, without the couple & the family even realising she was capturing the special moments. I would highly recommend her as the photographer for your big day!
 
Your day, your way!
 
5 Star review!
Deirdre did an amazing job capturing the day from start to finish — all the big moments and the little ones in between. She made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, which really shows in the photos. She put in extra time and effort throughout the whole process to make it special for us. Her eye for detail and ability to catch those special, candid moments is amazing.
I highly recommend Deirdre to anyone getting wedding photos. We couldn’t be happier with how they turned out.

Lets chat!
I only take on a small number of weddings each year. Not because I have to, but because every couple I work with deserves everything I've got. If that sounds like your kind of photographer, come say hello!
FAQ
How long will I wait for my wedding photos?
I promise delivery within 6- 8 weeks — but honestly, I'm usually earlier than that. I know how much you're dying to see them, and getting your gallery to you as quickly as possible matters to me.
How many photos will I receive?
You'll receive all the best images from your day, fully edited, in high resolution, ready to download and keep forever. A full wedding day typically delivers 700+ photos. No culling down to a handful, no holding images back — just everything that tells the real story of your day.
How long does it take to get our photos?
You'll receive all the best images from your day, fully edited, in high resolution, ready to download and keep forever. A full wedding day typically delivers 700+ photos. No culling down to a handful, no holding images back — just everything that tells the real story of your day.
Do you offer engagement or pre-wedding shoots?
I love photographing love — so yes, absolutely. If you book your wedding with me, you can add a pre-wedding or engagement shoot at a discounted rate. It's also a brilliant way to get comfortable in front of the camera before the big day. It's also a massive icebreaker!
Do you photograph destination weddings?
Right now I'm focusing on weddings in Ireland only — I've got little ones at home who need me! But who knows what the future holds. If you're planning something abroad, drop me a message anyway and we'll have a chat.
How do I book you?
Once we've had a chat and you're happy to go ahead, a non-refundable deposit secures your date along with a signed contract. From that point your date is held — just for you. No double bookings, no uncertainty. Simple as that.
Do you work alone or with a second photographer?
I work alone, and I've absolutely got you covered — I'm a bit of a wild one with my camera! That said, if both of you are getting ready in separate locations, or if you're having a large wedding with a big guest list, a second photographer is worth considering to make sure every moment is captured. I work with a number of brilliant photographers and can bring one along for an additional cost. Just ask and we'll figure out what works best for your day.
How far in advance should I book?
I typically book up about a year in advance for weddings — but not always, so please do enquire regardless of how close your date is. You might be surprised. The worst I can say is that I'm already taken!
Will you visit our venue before the wedding day?
I've shot at a lot of venues across Ireland, and I can work in any venue, any lighting condition, and any weather. If your venue is somewhere I haven't been and I'm in the area, I'll absolutely try to check it out beforehand.
But here's something I genuinely mean — I love shooting in a venue for the first time. Everything is fresh, everything is new, and you're not going to get a recycled version of a photo I've taken a hundred times before. It's going to be completely unique to you and your day. That buzz of somewhere new? It's one of my favourite things about this job.
What happens if you have an emergency on the day?
Honestly, this is something every couple should ask their photographer — and I'm glad you're reading this. Ireland has an incredible community of wedding photographers, and I'm lucky to be part of several of them. We look out for each other. If something were ever to stop me from being there on your day, I would make sure your wedding is covered by a photographer every bit as qualified and talented as I am. Your day will not go undocumented. I promise you that.
Will we get to meet you before the wedding?
Always. I always chat with my couples before the wedding — we can hop on a Zoom call or, if we're in the same part of the country, I'd love to meet in person for a coffee. Getting to know each other before the day makes such a difference. By the time your wedding comes around it should feel like having a friend there with a camera — not a stranger.

Hey I'm Deirdre
 
 
I'm Deirdre — Dublin wedding photographer, mam of three, lover of loud music, bad at the violin and absolutely in my element on a wedding dancefloor.
I've been photographing real people and real moments for over ten years and I still can't believe I get to call this my job. If your wedding is going to be full of laughter, a bit chaotic and completely yours, I think we're going to get on just fine. I'd love to hear from you!
