A New Chapter in Ireland – Capturing Love at Bantry House, Cork
As I embark on an exciting new chapter, relocating from the charming countryside of Cheshire to the breathtaking beauty of Ireland, I can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of excitement. After 14 years of capturing the most intimate, elegant, and unforgettable moments for couples in the UK, I’m ready to bring my creative vision to some of the most awe-inspiring venues Ireland has to offer.
One location that has completely captivated my heart is the exquisite Bantry House in Cork. Known for its charm, elegance, and unparalleled beauty, Bantry House is truly a dream wedding venue for couples seeking a luxurious and memorable celebration. Nestled on the Wild Atlantic Way, this stately home offers not just a sense of grandeur but also a unique, timeless character that’s perfect for those who want their wedding to be more than just an event – a story that will be remembered for generations.
It is most definitely on my Ireland Wedding Bucket List!
