Couples Photo Sessions in Ireland

Ireland is a place of beauty and magic, adventure and exploration and all the things that make the very best memories, especial when they’re made together.

Couples photos in Ireland are a way to celebrate your love & your adventures in Ireland

From the awe-inspiring Cliffs of Moher, to the ancient walls of Quin Abbey, from the seaside to the woods, from the castles to the pubs, wherever you go in Ireland, you’ll find adventure and romance.

Photos are a beautiful way to remember this time you have together, but also serve as a testimony to the love and commitment you have for each other.

COUPLES PHOTO SESSIONS IN IRELAND ARE FOR:

Anniversaries

Honeymoons

Weekend Getaways

Vacations & Holidays

Proposals

Or just because you love each other

Tell me about yourselves

I want to get to know you

Tell me all about your plans - what brings you to Ireland & what you’ll be doing here, what you’re most excited about, what you want from your photo session, and any questions you might have.

I’ll get back to you as quickly as I can and we’ll have a chat about finding the perfect location, the best day, and what you’d most enjoy doing.

The Experience

Actually, it’s not really a “photo session”at all. It’s more like going on a date… with a chatty, enthusiastic, slightly clumsy, camera-holding third wheel. But this third wheel will be right there helping you plan the whole thing - when, where & what to do.

While I love photographing couples at the Cliffs of Moher, there are so many beautiful locations in Ireland for a photo session - from the banks of the River Shannon, to the ancient walls of Quin Abbey, to all along the Wild Atlantic Way from Kilkee to Spanish Point to Galway Bay.

If you already know where you want your couples photos, I’m there for it, 100%. But if you want a few suggestions, I have so many hidden gems I’d love to tell you about.

What to Expect

A lot of walking, a good bit of laughing and you can definitely expect the unexpected.

Irish weather can be a bit of a wild card, so as long as you’re prepared for anything from bitter winds to blazing sun, you’ll be fine! Bring a pair of good shoes, some layers, and I’ll take care of the rest.

I don’t do a lot of posing or prompting, and every session is completely different because each one is based on who you are, what you love to do, and my never ending desire to create pictures that capture it all.

While I do love to showcase the Irish landscape & Irish culture, what I want even more is to help you remember your experience here. We will climb rocks, rest in the sun, walk along the beach, have a pint, pick our way along a cliff’s edge, feel the awe of ancient walls… this is your day to do what you love.

Thinking about proposing in Ireland? Get started here.

Marie is the best photographer I’ve had the pleasure of meeting!

I connected with her via Facebook before my trip to Ireland from Atlanta, Georgia. She helped me coordinate and pull off the perfect surprise proposal at the Cliffs of Moher! Marie is a truly special person. I felt as if I’ve known her for years.. and that’s exactly how our photo shoot felt. She made my fiancé and I feel so comfortable and it was so easy being natural with her.

We couldn’t be more happy with Marie’s work. Her passion for what she does is so evident. Thanks again for everything, Marie. We will see you again! If you are looking for the best photographer in Ireland… contact Marie!

PLACES TO GO IN THE WEST OF IRELAND

BUNRATTY

Everything you could want for photos in Ireland - a castle and cottages, stone walls and ivy. Ice-cream, tea or pints, a playground & room to run.

THE CLIFFS OF MOHER

Needs no introduction. For families with children 2-10 the visitor centre & viewpoint has safe walls and room to roam. For babies in arms or couples, Moher Tower at Hags Head is real, unforgettable beauty.

CRATLOE WOODS

Tourist-free & a local favourite, it’s a perfect place for a walk through the trees down to the lake, or further up for beautiful views - and the kids will love the wooden playground.

QUIN FRIARY

Just 15 minutes off the motorway from Limerick to Ennis, Quin is a beautiful little town and the friary ruins with green fields around are perfect for that true feel of ancient Ireland

SPANISH POINT BEACH

Where do people from Limerick go for their holidays? Spanish Point! A beautiful sandy beach with dramatic cliffs, sea grass dunes, rocks to climb and the alluring waves.

YOUR PLACE

If you’re staying somewhere really wonderful, or perhaps just want to remember being together, I’m happy to join you where you’re staying.

CARRIGOGONNAL

It doesn’t get more romantic than this, a ruin for hundreds of years, slowly being claimed by nature, with hidden stairs, carved archways, and all the stunning views you could image (just mind the nettles!)

LAHINCH BEACH AND MAIN STREET

King John’s Castle, St Mary’s Cathedral or a walk down the River Shannon at the University of Limerick. And my favourite - a walk through the streets in the Medieval quarter

DOOLIN PIER & DOOLIN TOWN

A natural playground for kids of all ages, full of romance for couples, and the awe-inspiring cliffs in the distance, Doolin Pier is a favourite & the colourful town makes a perfect “Irish village” backdrop

CURRAGHCHASE

Another local favourite, and just outside of Limerick city, Curraghchase is a beautiful park with an old mansion, lake & woods.

ENNIS

Ennis is a large town in Co Clare, right on the motorway between Dublin & Galway. Colourful doors and cobblestone streets, cute cafes and pubs, lovely ruins and landscape views. It’s one of my favourite places to wander, shop, and have a cuppa

let’s explore the city together!

LIMERICK CITY

King John’s Castle, St Mary’s Cathedral or a walk down the River Shannon at the University of Limerick. And my favourite - a walk through the streets in the Medieval quarter

THE CLARE GLENS

Another hidden gem, away from crowds of people & the top tourist destinations, this river & waterfall walk is a perfect summer experience.

KILKEE CLIFFS

Sea-cliffs to rival Moher or Kerry, there’s a reason this is a favourite with Limerick people. After a wander around the cliffs, a splash on the beach, there’s ice cream and pints and the best vibes ever.

GALWAY

From walking around downtown to Silverstrand beach, Galway is a wonderful location for family photos on your vacation.

ATHASSAL ABBEY

One of Ireland's most extensive monasteries, Athassel Abbey in County Tipperary, stretching out along the banks of the River Suir. If you’re looking for ruins set within green rolling hills, this is it.
