Dromoland Castle, Ireland – Destination Wedding Photographer – Part III
And now for our final destination wedding blog post of Adrienne & Dustin. It’s been an absolutely amazing experience 1. pre-planning with the couple, 2. traveling to far away lands with the couple, 3. meeting their friends and family, 4. spending multiple days photographing, chatting and laughing with the newlyweds, and finally 5. editing and creating images that will make their fairytale wedding last for decades to come.
So I had to save the best for last! These groomals were so amazing and I had such a kick-ass time walking the grounds of the castle (and hanging on for dear life–the wind was crazy!) What’s a “groomal”? A groomal session is a photography session much like a bridal session with one difference…there’s a groom! [–insert big cheesy smile–] Groomals can be photographed before, during or after the wedding day and they provide a great opportunity to get priceless portraits of you and your better half; these are the types of images you’ll want to display on your wall, wrap your photo album in and use to set your social networking profile picture!
Dustin & Adrienne – spending this experience with you was so great and I hope that you love the images as much as we do! Can’t wait to photograph you again soon!
