Donegal wedding photographer - Michael and Christina - Ostan Gweedore

 I've known the Bateson family for 2 decades now and was thrilled to be shooting another family wedding for them. This time it was Michael, the youngest but most fearless of them all, marrying his childhood sweetheart Christina from the wilds of Dungiven. The Ostan Gweedore Hotel sits proud on the hill above the stunning strand of Bunbeg, home to the famous shipwreck as seen on many's an Irish postcard, and housed friends and family, old and new of the Bateson and McCaul variety.
 We had an amazing experience, a day (that turned into a weekend) filled with craic and love. The weather was it's usual brutal self, but the brave and the bold took to the beach for some dramatic photos, and a bit of horseplay. Creamy Guinness, hot whiskeys, fine wines and Major fags all helped take the edge of the cold weather!
 Christina, although self-confessed as being very camera-shy looked truely amazing and naturally beautiful  when the camera was on her; she could pose like a pro! Michael and his whole crew were a blast and it really helped to maximise the fun potential at every stop. I felt blessed to be part of their day, and will always cherish the experience.
 Bunbeg, Gweedore and the whole region - amazing part of the country, I suggest you visit as the landscape and the local hospitality are a real treat. Can't wait to return....(in a few weeks)
