Outstanding wedding photographer

Shea is such a kind, caring man. From day one, Shea was so unbelievably professional and friendly with myself and Brian.
Shea was recommended to us for his great work. We met up with Shea (before Covid) and went through his work styles with him, what we loved and what we hoped for. He was so accommodating.
We booked Shea for our wedding which was August 22nd 2020, which we are so thankful that went ahead. Shea spent the upcoming weeks towards the wedding on phone calls and zoom meetings with us reassuring us that everything will be ok.
On our wedding day, Shea was cool and calm!! He captured our day so beautifully, got every photo that we had originally asked for, was able to have the crack with our guests and got some amazing pictures behind the scene without us even realising he was taking them. For days and even weeks after our wedding, we had guests talk about how lovely our photographer was, and how professional he was at his job.

We have just received the most outstanding wedding album just in time before the lockdown! We cannot believe the detail of this album. We are blown away..
Shea you went over and beyond for us on our wedding day, our pictures we will cherish forever, and we will always be thankful for you and your amazing work.
10/10 from us!
Thank you so much,
Love,
Michaela and Brian Friel x

Such an amazing photographer, delighted with all our pictures

Shea is so professional and amazing at what he does. He’s so organised and has everything done to a schedule, even like me, if you don’t stick (sorry, Shea) you still manage to get all the amazing pics which was planned.

From meeting Shea and booking him to getting a family photo shoot and engagement photos and then wedding, he made us so at ease at times we even forgot he was there. He met up with us a month before the wedding and organised everything for the day of photos, styles, etc. He also did the most of our wedding album design which was such a help to us. The pics from our engagement and wedding are amazing and so different compared to other photographers.

I couldn’t recommend him enough and we cannot wait to see our finished album. Thanks, Shea, for everything.

Wedding Photography

We knew from the moment we looked at Shea's wedding portfolio that he was the photographer for our wedding day. We first met Shea at our engagement shoot as we live in Scotland and Shea made us feel so comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed this experience. On our big day, everyone commented on how professional Shea was and he really helped our day run smoothly from start to finish. His attention to detail and his ability to capture natural photos is of the highest standard. When we went to collect our wedding album, we were just overwhelmed with the quality of our photos in our album. We have dealt with Shea for over a two year period and I would highly recommend Shea to any future couples looking for professionalism and beautiful photos to capture their big day.

Wedding Photographer

Choosing the right wedding photographer was so important to us. We wanted to work with someone who made us feel comfortable and had a talent for photography. Shea is such a natural behind the camera and as a result of this, he captures special moments in the most perfect of ways! We are so happy to have been able to work alongside Shea from the beginning of our wedding journey to collecting our amazing album. Getting to know Shea and how he works enabled us to develop 100% trust in him which is so important for any Wedding Day. His attention to detail is outstanding. When you book Shea, you can be assured that he will do anything to overcome any challenges that may come your way. When COVID struck after we had booked Shea and planned our wedding for over a year, we had so much uncertainty and Shea remained patient, helpful, understanding and professional through it all. He almost became our Wedding Planner at one point! Shea was absolutely amazing in every way possible! He genuinely cares about his customers and will happily go the extra mile to ensure they are happy! We are delighted to have such a beautiful Wedding Album and will never be able to thank Shea enough for everything.

Fantastic photographer

Just back from seeing our Wedding photos and we’re in love with them all. Shea has been amazing from the moment we booked right through to the big day. He was so organised at every stage! We loved the images from our engagement shoot we weren’t surprised that we loved all the wedding images too. He even got my hubby to smile... (miracle worker!). We can’t wait to choose our album photos and see them in print although I don’t know how we’ll be able to leave ones out! I would without a doubt recommend Shea to everyone, he’s such a gentleman and an amazing photographer!

Relaxed yet professional!

Shea is a friendly, discrete and professional photographer! His calm and easy-going demeanour quickly put us at ease during our engagement photo shoot. Through consultation meetings, Shea got to know us on a personal level and as a result, we were extremely happy with our wedding album. We would highly recommend him!
