WHO THE F#$K IS

BIG BEARD PHOTOGRAPHY?

LET ME FILL YOU IN

Martin and Frank

Hey there!

My name is Martin.

I’m a photographer based in Co. Fermanagh, with 10+ years of experience. I have a beautiful wife called Clare and together we have a son called Jack and the cutest little sausage dog called Frank. Since mid-2020 I have transitioned to more of a professional status as I grow my skills and grow my beard! (In case you didn’t know - I have a glorious big ginger beard).

I love nothing more than to make an absolute egit out of myself by wading through water, climbing on things I shouldn’t, getting involved on the dance floor… all in a bid to make you laugh, but ultimately I do these things to ensure I capture all those authentic emotion-filled moments you can never plan or pose.

My core value when it comes to wedding photography or any other photography for that matter is to form relationships and capture genuine moments. I want to get to know you and help encapsulate what means the most.

I don’t do “traditional” or “posed” photos, so forget about that. My photography is all about natural authentic moments. This could consist of hiking a mountain for your ceremony, spending several days with you and your guests, and even doing shots at the bar.

I’m there to photograph your day, plain and simple. But if I do, I want you to be totally at ease and comfortable with me. So you can enjoy the day and look forward to receiving your photographic heirlooms.

After all, you deserve somebody who expects the unexpected, forever looking for all those unplanned authentic moments. Likewise, you also want somebody who can see you and your partner for who you both are. The emotions during your letters to one another, the way she hugs you from behind, the way he tucks your hair back behind your ear, the way you fight, laugh & love. You want someone who can capture all of that, and then some.

MY APPROACH

In my work, I look for natural, authentic moments.

I may appear very relaxed and zen-like when I am taking photos. But I can assure you I am taking it very seriously, I want you to look back on your photos in 20 years and feel the exact same real emotions you did on that day.

My Work Is

Candid, timeless, Nostalgic Imagery

Vibrant but not over saturated

Unique & full of emotion
