Annie and Jason… where do I even begin? Their wedding was our first one of 2013 and was certainly a day we will never forget. They first contacted us last year to see if we were available for their wedding, they explained that it was just going to be the 2 of them, an elopement of sorts, and as we chatted about their plans for the day we knew immediately that this was going to be a wedding unlike any we´d photographed before. Neither of them had been to mainland Portugal before but had been following our blog for a while and fell in love with the country through our eyes… which is a pretty big compliment in itself, but the cherry-on-top was when they asked us to pick the location of their ceremony, as they trusted our vision and knew we would find the best spot.

Robyn and Nicky have been coming Ericeira for surfing holidays since forever… they have an apartment just around the corner from ours and visit these famous Portuguese waves as often as they possibly can, escaping the rainy Irish weather.

We spent a lovely (and surprisingly sunny!) afternoon with them on the beach a little while ago and are excited to work with them again soon… theirs will be one of our first weddings of 2013 and we are itching to get back into action! 
So, as usual during the winter, things have been a bit slow on the blog… apologies for having abandoned you all for the last few months, but things are about to get started again! We have a bunch of e-sessions lined up and wedding season 2013 is about to kick off, but to keep you going until then… this is a little bit of what we’ve been up to lately. (via Instagram)
