Some Irish wedding photography this time, for Sarah and George in Lismore Cathedral a short distance from Sarah's family home. With a request for a minimum of formal shots and a friend handling the bridal shoot while I met up with George and his groomsmen and no photography that would interrupt the service, it was mostly a day of reportage, but in truly spectacular surroundings.
I was in Lismore for a couple of days, but unfortuneately the weather didn't co-operate and so it was mostly indoor reportage with off-camera speedlights and a chance to show off the low-noise capabilities of the D700. Being indoors for this wedding was no bad thing at all though. The Cathedral and the house were decked in some of the most impressive flower displays I’ve ever seen. The interior itself was extraordinary in its grandeur, most notably the staircase which, as well as functioning as my best way to see over the crowd, we managed to arrange the entire wedding party onto for the group shop opposite, which went extremely smoothly and got the whle party straight from the dining room to the dance floor.
As with all the best weddings, things finished off with a Ceilidh and compliments have to go to the two impromptu bouts of folk singing that went with it.
