SHANE\u2019S STORY\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
There has been a camera in Shane\u2019s hand for over 30 years. Since he was a ten-year-old boy.
\nHe\u2019s always surrounded himself with books of the greats – like Martin Parr, Bruce Gilden and Diane Arbus \u2013 who\u2019ve helped shape how he sees the world.
\nBut it was at Dun Laoghaire College of Art and Design that Shane really had the chance to get his teeth into documentary photography – spending two weeks documenting the binmen of Waterford.
\nHe became hooked on the idea of the unposed and undirected.
\nThe images had so much more life to them – a natural depth and beauty. Full of unforced, subtle details.
\nThen in 2005, he was approached by a friend to shoot their wedding. And he offered Shane free rein to photograph it in his own unique way.<\/p>\n
Shane approached the wedding without any pre-determined list of images to record.
\nJust as a guest, with a camera \u2013 focused on capturing the joy, fun and experiences of the day as it naturally unfolded around him.
\nThe images were a phenomenal success.
\nThey instantly resonated with anyone who saw them. They perfectly encapsulated what it was like to be part of the day \u2013 transporting those photographed back to exactly how they felt in those moments.
\nAnd from there, the phone has never stopped ringing.
\nToday, Shane lives in Waterford in Ireland with his wife Aoife, children Marnie and Miles, and the not-to-be-forgotten Doug, The Frenchie.
\nHe considers himself extremely lucky, to have to the opportunity to travel from there, to some of the most spectacular locations nationally and internationally, to document a couple\u2019s days.
\nIn his own unique style.
\nFor Shane, it\u2019s definitely a find something you love to do and never work a day in your life kind of a thing.
\nAnd his passion, curiosity and playful outlook on life, shines through in everything he does.<\/p>\n
DOCUMENTING WEDDINGS\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t+<\/p>\n
Shane takes a mainly documentary approach to wedding photography. Natural, modern and relaxed.
\nHe tells a story of what happened by being part of the occasion \u2013 spontaneously and intuitively capturing natural and candid shots.
\nFrom your point of view, as a client, it will all feel very easy and go-with the flow. Photography won\u2019t dictate the pace of the day but instead will work around how you experience it.
\nThe resulting images will provide a real record of your day as it unfolded.
\nThey\u2019ll capture all the authentic moments and happy memories, so you can relive them \u2013 again and again.
\nAnd if you\u2019d like to include a few more traditional family portraits, or stunning artistic shots as part of the day, that\u2019s no problem. Shane will plan them in with you, so they get covered in a timely and fun way, that doesn\u2019t keep you from the party for long.
\nThis is your record of what happened on the day you got married.<\/p>\n
ELOPEMENTS AND ADVENTURES\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\nAnd from The Cliffs of Moher, The Burren, Connemara and The Copper Coast \u2013 it\u2019s easy to understand why.

\nAnd that\u2019s just the backdrop to your day.
\nElopements are about so much more. There is magic and freedom to them. And an incredible intimacy.
