Laura and Michael

I've known Laura for a very long time as her mum and my mum used to work together and are very good friends. Laura is just lovely and it was such a pleasure to be asked to photograph her marriage to Michael.

We started off the morning at Laura's family home and despite it being a hub of activity it was the most chilled out wedding morning I think I've ever encountered!

Laura is very creative. She had come across these shoes and fell in love with them due to the heart in the heel but didn't like the front so she made these wee flowers for the front instead. She also made all the jewellery for her bridemaids, flowergirls, her mum and for herself.

I LOVED Laura's hair on Saturday! Her hair was done by the very talented Janette and let me tell you, it stayed as it was throughout! Gorgeous!

My sister Kirsty helped design the headpiece in Laura's hair too and it shone throughout the day

For as long as I've known Laura, I've known Michael. He is just lovely and I've never seen him without a smile on his face! I'm so glad these two found each other!

In all the weddings I've been to, this one will forever be memorable. First of all for obvious reasons, it is always so lovely to witness two people get married to each other.

Secondly, it was Father Martin O'Hagan who married them. He is one of the trio from the classical musical group The Priests and so he sang throughout parts of their ceremony and it sounded absolutely beautiful

I couldn't resist snapping these shots of the dance floor and of Laura's niece and nephew. What's the saying... 'dance as if no-one is watching...'

I had to include the most photo stealing opportunity I've ever come across! Laura and Michael had just finished dancing with their wedding party on the dance floor and they saw me with a camera, so Michael quickly kissed Laura...

Yeah, that made me laugh at the time too ;)

Have a fantastic honeymoon in Croatia and I'll see you when you get home xox
