Now here are the wedding photographs of a very sensible couple! Perhaps some of you planning your wedding out there might consider taking on this fantastic idea. Maura and John were married back in the lovely summer of 2013, anxious not to miss out on time with their wedding guests they decided to do their family and bridal party photos before the wedding ceremony! Would you be willing to break with tradition like this? It worked out fantastically for Maura and Johnny. We had great fun and there was such a buzz of excitement for what the day would bring. It meant no nerves at all for either at the church, and a bunch of surprised guests when after the ceremony the couple had the whole afternoon to mingle with them. Generally I don’t have the couple away from their guests for long, but it still probably ads up to the best part of half an hour, and on a day that just flies by it is defiantly something to consider. Here is a small selection of photos from the day (oh and one of the cover of their album). We started off in Mauras home then headed to Killarney Golf Course to do the family and bridal party photos. What a stunning location and thank you so much to them for letting us use their backdrop. Then it was down the road to Fossa for the wedding ceremony and a little trip back the road to the Castlerosse for the wedding reception. Thank you so much Maura and John and families for being so great, warm and welcoming on the day and since.photograph of the cover of a Queensberry press book from photographer Claire O'RorkeBlack and white photograph of a beautiful chubby baby girl and her grandad3 small photographs of details of a white silk wedding dressphotograph of bride in garden by wedding photographer Claire O'Rorkebride and groom see each other for the first time happy groom by female wedding photographer claire o'rorkebright sunshiny photograph of a bride and groom at Killarney golf course taken by female wedding photographer claire o'rorke bridal party at Killarney golf course taken by female wedding photographer claire o'rorke bright sunshiny photograph of a bride and groom at Killarney golf course taken by female wedding photographer claire o'rorke bright sunshiny photograph of a bride and groom at Killarney golf course taken by female wedding photographer claire o'rorke bright sunshiny photograph of a bride and groom at Killarney golf course on a pier by the lake with a big blue sky taken by female wedding photographer claire o'rorke bright sunshiny photograph of a bride and groom walking away at Killarney golf course taken by female wedding photographer claire o'rorke bride smiles at the camera during a wedding ceremony taken by female wedding photographer claire o'rorke black and white photograph of a bride and groom hugging after they have just been married at Fossa church taken by female wedding photographer claire o'rorke Group photograph taken outside Fossa church by female wedding photographer claire o'rorke small photographs of guests at a wedding chatting taken by female wedding photographer Claire O'RorkeFamily photograph as all people are laughing at a babytoddler eating a flower as grandad looks onphotographs of wedding guests laughingpanormaic photo of the view from the Castlerosse hotel in Killarney showing the mountains and lakes
