Boarding the flight to Knock airport at 6.50am my thoughts were more about sleep than wedding photography. However, arriving in Westport on the Atlantic coast of Ireland I thought I was really dreaming.

What a beautiful place to get married. I'd travelled from Lancashire to photograph Rachel and Roberts wedding. The service was due to be held in St Mary's Church and the reception at the Wyatt hotel. This was sure the be a fabulous wedding.

As a wedding photographer we tend to be a bit obsessed with the weather, so checking the satellite images and forecast for tomorrow it looks like a wet and rainy day. Good job I packed a bag full of fast prime lenses. Rain or Shine I'll get some fantastic pictures for Rachel & Robert.

An early night tonight ready for the big day tomorrow...
