Essence Photography weddings

Your wedding day is a beautiful story, and I’m here to capture every chapter—from the quiet, intimate moments to the joyful celebrations. Let’s create timeless memories together.

Hi, I’m Karen, potentially your Wedding Photographer, Wife, Mummy, step-mum and photo and travel obsessive!!!!

With 15 years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of photographing countless love stories, each one as unique as the couple.

 

I specialize in modern classic wedding photography — blending timeless elegance with a touch of drama, creativity, and a whole lot of heart. My approach is all about balancing the beautiful candid moments with carefully crafted, dramatic shots that elevate your wedding photos to art.​
 

Weddings are wild, wonderful days — full of love, nerves, stories, and the kind of moments you’ll be talking about for years. I’m there to catch it all: the big laughs, the quiet looks, the chaos, and those gorgeous portraits. 
 

I’m big on creating photos that feel like you — a mix of natural candids and beautifully posed shots that show the joy (and the divilment) of your day.  There will be just a bit of direction, a bit of craic, and a lot of stunning photos.

Recent Recognition:

  • Photographer of the Year runner up  (2nd place) at the Northern Ireland Wedding Awards 2025.

  • Accredited Licentiate Member of the Professional Photographers Association of Northern Ireland (as of January 2025).
