How could you forget it? The intro to one of the most watched programs of the late 80’s and early 90’s – The Wonder Years.
The reason I post this is that I’m often asked “Do you know anyone good for wedding videos?”. My answer is always the same – Wonder Years Weddings.
What they do that I think is so different and appealing is that they create these wonderful little videos that capture your full day in a nicely edited 7 or 8 minute video. Oh, and the reason they’re called Wonder Years Weddings is that that little video is given the same 8mm old handheld video feel as the intro to the famous tv show.
Deirdre and John, who’s wedding I shot last June used Wonder Years Weddings and their video turned out superb. It’s the perfect thing to put on to show friends and family without having to put them through the ordeal of a 3 hour unedited epic.

They really do. And not just other peoples. Damien and Jehan love weddings so much that they got married three times. In three different countries! What recession?
While the last two weddings took place in sunnier climbs (Japan and Sri Lanka!) they settled on an Irish wedding to bring this tour to an end.
Carlingford was the chosen location and what a location it was. While Dublin was wet and miserable as I set off that morning the sun was splitting the skies in Carlingford.
The wedding was lovely. A real informal ceremony with lots of smiles and laughter. No nerves here. Mind you, they’re old hands at this gig now.
After the wedding it was down to the pub as Jehan showed us her true pulling power – this is becoming quite the tradition.(see previous post). Actually it was at this point Damien and Jehan lost their driver so I got to play wedding driver (although I had to use my own car not the fancy Jag..) as we headed down to the shore front. It was freezing! Jehan did a great job in not showing it and the shots came out great.
The driver eventually turned up. He was looking for us apparently. We ignored his white foam moustache.
I want to thank Jehan and Damien for being such a lovely couple, they made me so welcome and really made my day very, very easy. Oh.. and if you do get married again can you make it somewhere hot and can I come?
Back on the 20th March I had the pleasure of photographing the beautiful wedding of Kelly and Damian.
The weather was gorgeous and we had everything in our favour to capture some beautiful images – a handsome groom, a beautiful bride and …….oh…. no beach.
Kelly was a big fan of the beach shots on my site but with the wedding taking place in Mullingar we had very little alternatives to work with. So, we went to the pub. P.Gunnings pub in Rathconrath to be precise. It was a tight squeeze with just enough room to hold roughly 15 or 20 of us. It’s one of those real Irish half pub, quarter shop, quarter petrol station efforts but still, it was cosy and the craic was good.
