Life Squared

I’ve been busy – busy with work and busy with life. If you ring me, chances are we’ll be speaking via my iPhone. It’s never too far away – I just love it. All my contacts are on there, it has a handy mapping app that enables me to find pretty much anywhere and I can instantly check in my calendar if I have a date available. The iPhone camera isn’t much cop though. However, a couple of weeks ago I downloaded the shakeit photo app. It’s the best fun I’ve had in ages – it takes digital Polaroids (Fauxlaroids) and it reminds me of the real Polaroid camera I picked up way back in 1996. I can’t wait to try it out on baby when he/she lands in! What follows is a few highlights of my life and work all shot on the iPhone. BTW if anyone wants me to photograph their wedding exclusively with the iPhone please contact me! cheers

Ballygalley Castle Wedding | Lauren and Jamie
Tuesday, November 17 2009 | in For Brides, Wedding Photographs
|
Lauren and Jamie had me photograph their wedding up at Ballyeaston and Ballygally Castle, County Antrim last Saturday. They were in such good spirits all day. Lauren looked simply stunning as did her three bridesmaids. The great sense of nervous excitement at the house in the morning must have been lovely for Lauren’s Mum and Dad, Sandra and Trevor to witness and be part of and I’m sure Trevor must have been a very proud man then leading her up the aisle.
Weddings bring together all of the friends and family in one place and it was such a pleasure for me to also be part of their big day. The evening speeches were amongst the funniest I’ve heard all year. Here are some of my favourite photographs from the day: |

Lissanoure Castle Wedding Photography | Georgina & Simon
Sunday, November 8 2009 | in For Brides, Wedding Photographs
|
The last of my October weddings saw me up at the beautiful old All Saints church in Loughguile and Lissanoure, County Antrim for Georgina and Simon’s wedding.
Georgie and Simon were just lovely to work with. Lots of their friends and family travelled over from Britain for the wedding and I’d like to thank everyone for such good good fun. Particularly the Rev John Bach for officiating such a beautiful ceremony. The evening jigs were amazing! Throughout the day the autumnal light was very low and pretty much to be expected for this time of year in Northern Ireland. However, this is the sort of environment I thrive in – I just love shooting autumn and winter weddings. Many photographers resort to the vulgarity and intrusiveness of flash – but, if you use the available light correctly, the pictures can be wonderful. Here are some of my personal favourites: |

Old Inn Crawfordsburn Wedding | Roberta & Graeme
Monday, November 2 2009 | in For Brides, Testimonials, Wedding Photographs
|
This wedding was so beautiful. Roberta and Graeme got married at the Old Inn in Crawfordsburn, County Down. The Old Inn is one of those venues that just suits small intimate weddings. Bo & G had just 20 guests (including me!) and so it was a very intimate affair! I have to say that I just love shooting indoors at this time of year. I love the warm colours and the cosy atmosphere of winter weddings.
As a soon-to-be parent, this wedding really hit home to me the importance of family. It was lovely to see their daughter Dara helping Mum get ready before the service. Their son Eoin was a real livewire too. I’m glad Graeme’s family made it over from Aberdeen – especially with his Father being ill. It was so touching to be part of this wedding. Here are some of my personal favourites: |

Yesterday I received a lovely email from Roberta after she had seen her photographs: “Dylan, Love it love it love it Graeme is travelling to the Caspian sea right now so won’t see the photos till tomorrow. Haven’t time right now to say all I want to but a big thank you for starters. Will be in touch. Bo (Roberta)” |

Caro’s last scan at Whiteabbey
| in Personal
|
When I was a kid my parents would have taken me up past Whiteabbey Hospital every weekend to see my Granny. Later, we moved closer up the road and I’d see it every day going to school and for years my Mum worked there. Since 1993, my parents have lived in the street beside it and so it felt very comfortable and familiar to be back there for what was a pretty important moment. Luckily, I brought my camera.

Check out the trusty old scanner! Caroline and bump are doing well – we’ll keep you all updated on the progress.
