Kanturk Engagement Session | Trish and Sean

Bartek Witek — Tue, 21 Sep 2010 17:17:02 +0000

I had no idea where Trish and Sean would like to have their engagement photographs taken.
When Trish said “The Farm” – where she grow up I was surprised and happy at the same time.
It may sounds funny but it was my first real time on the Irish farm.
I had a fantastic time even though I step on the cow shit and was so dirty and smelly after all :)

Below as always my favorite photographs:

Reportage Wedding Photography | Sarah and Brendan

Bartek Witek — Tue, 14 Sep 2010 21:07:56 +0000

From the first minutes after I arrived to Sarah and Brendan house I could feel the rising joy and excitement among their closest family.
Hair dresser and make-up artist were already there. I love when they are coming to the brides house. It gives everyone more time to enjoy themselves instead of driving from one place to another.

Intimate ceremony took place in St. Finbarr’s Oratory well known as a Gougane Barra Church in Co. Cork, after which we drove to Killarney Park Hotel for the reception.

It was a pleasure to be a part of this day to watch so much love around. Thank you!

Ireland’s Wedding Journal Show

Bartek Witek — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 18:15:38 +0000

Today – Saturday 24th January 2009 I had a pleasure to visit The Wedding Journal Show in Millstreet, County Cork.

If you missed Dublin and Millstreet you still have a chance to attend in Belfast 27-28 February and 1st March 2009.

Unfortunately I did not exhibit this year :( Simply I did not had time to prepare… maybe in the 2010.

Anyway it was pleasure to be there. I meet some fantastic people.

Incredible vendors mostly from Kerry but also Cork, Dingle, even from Waterford – county Kilkenny.

Great photographers with various samples and packages to choose from.

What is most important – they were all there for you – couples, brides and grooms looking for the best for they dream day.

At 1 o’clock We /me and my fabulous wife/ watched “The Cat Walk” . Gorgeous ladies wearing stunnig dresses and two handsome guys accompanying them in perfectly crafted mens suits.

I was impressed how quick they were changing clothes, jewelry etc.

Hope I will have an opportunity to exhibit next year, and meet some of you…
