Five Wedding Videographers in Ireland I Love Working With
People ask me about videographers a lot and I'm always happy to talk about it because I genuinely care who couples book. A photographer and a videographer spend the entire day together moving around the same spaces, trying to capture the same moments without getting in each other's way. When it works well you barely notice each other. When it doesn't, you both notice it, and so does the couple.
Over the years I've been lucky to work alongside some really talented filmmakers and these are five I'd recommend without hesitation. They're all different from each other, which is the point. The right person for your wedding depends on what you want your film to feel like.
Emma Walkin is one of Ireland's most experienced and respected wedding filmmakers and she's based in Wicklow which means she knows the venues I know and loves the landscape I love. She trained in film school in New York and was named Irish Wedding Videographer of the Year by the IPPVA, both of which tell you something, but what tells you more is watching her work on an actual wedding day. She is calm and discreet and completely at ease in any situation. Her films are full of light and colour and genuine emotion and she has an instinct for the mood and rhythm of a day that I find rare. Her short highlight edits, two to three minutes, are the kind of thing you'll send to everyone you know the week after your wedding. I love working with Emma.
Kevin came to wedding filmmaking from digital marketing and you can feel that background in how considered his work is. Based in Dublin, travelling all over Ireland and abroad, his films are cinematic and warm at the same time, which is harder to pull off than it sounds. He has a natural way with people that makes everyone feel relaxed and he understands how to let moments develop rather than rushing to capture them. His full-length feature films are beautiful long-form storytelling. He also offers short trailers and drone footage for venues where it's permitted. Elegant and unhurried and very easy to be alongside on the day.
Andrew is brilliant fun to work with and his films reflect that. They're bright and energetic and full of people being themselves, which is a quality you either have or you don't. He has a technical film background so the craft is solid, but what makes his work stand out is his instinct for joy. He catches the moments that make you laugh out loud watching back, not just the ones that make you cry. If you want a film that feels like a party and also like your day specifically, Andrew is your person. He manages to be everywhere without ever being in the way, which is exactly the quality you want in someone you're sharing a wedding day with.
Keith has been doing this for almost twenty years and it shows in the best possible way. His approach is completely fly on the wall, guests often say afterwards that they barely noticed him, and yet his films show everything that mattered. He works especially well alongside documentary photographers because he understands instinctively how to move through a space without interrupting what's unfolding. His films are quiet and luxurious and full of real moments. He offers a full-length feature and a shorter highlight version, both of which feel timeless rather than tied to any particular trend. Keith is one of the calmest people I've worked alongside on a wedding day, which is a quality worth more than any reel.
5. Non-Fiction Love
Aoife and Emily describe themselves as not your traditional wedding videographers and that's a fair description. Their films feel like art but they're built on truth and real emotion rather than aesthetic choices for their own sake. They are thoughtful and deliberate and they take the time to build trust with a couple before the day, which means by the time they're filming, people have completely forgotten to be self-conscious. We trusted them to film our Doc Day event and what they produced was extraordinary. If you want something that feels genuinely different, considered, and deeply human, these are your people.
A word on choosing
Your videographer and photographer will spend nearly the entire wedding day together, so it matters that they work well in the same space. All five of these filmmakers are people I've stood alongside at real weddings and each one brings warmth and professionalism and a genuine respect for the day. When we're all moving in the same direction your day unfolds naturally. That's what you want.
Take time to watch each person's actual wedding films, not just the showreel, and find someone whose style connects with how you want to remember your day.
