Ballymaloe Grainstore Wedding on a glorious summers day
What can I say about Paul and Michelle’s wedding at the Grainstore in Ballymaloe? The weather was just stunning, the pool looked inviting, the grounds were full of flower and bloom, and the guests were on fire! Paul and Michelle were the most lovely couple. We shot a few engagement photos and went for a pint a few months before the wedding at the Pepperstack in Aghada, and became the best of friends. More pints were had when I presented them with their album a few months later. Lovely day, lovely couple, dream wedding!
And they gave me a lovely on my google page
Myself and my new other half Michelle could not recommend Rory highly enough. From the day we first met him, to our engagement shoot, to the big day itself and the meetings we have had since...he has been both the utmost professional as well as an absolute gentleman. During the wedding he was an integral part of the day without being overbearing or taking over. The quality of his photography speaks for itself, the proof book he sent us is packed full of beautiful shots from such a wonderful occasion...he has the "Je ne sais quoi" when it comes to photography...an eye for the unusual shot which produces stunning and memorable images, as well as fantastic family shots and pics of the wedding party. We could not be happier with the results.
Thanks guys, for the warmth and friendship on your day and since then!
