Hung + Mark - Tuscany Wedding Photography by This Modern Love

Hello again! We've been pretty quiet on the blog lately, but we've been working hard behind the scenes pulling everything together for our new site. And here it is :)

Big thanks to Tim Farrell, our designer.

We've so many weddings we're dying to blog. No better place to start than with the Tuscan goodness that was Hung & Mark's wedding. Hung & Mark brought together Irish, Australian and Vietnamese families and friends from all over the world to the amazing Villa Catagnano in Siena. The ceremony was a real highlight - outdoors at the villa, combining Zen Buddhist, Celtic and Vietnamese traditions, and officiated by Mark's brother. It was a privilege to be there to photograph it all. And to eat the dinner :)

Hung & Mark's day has also been featured on Junebug.

Yaili & Nicklas //Portugal Wedding by This Modern Love

Yaili & Nicklas - Duoro Wedding Photography

I caught the same flight as Nicklas and the boys one grey Friday morning in Dublin. Just a couple of frames later and we're in Porto, making our way to the Swedish-Portuguese gathering that was Yaili and Nicklas' wedding.

Hotel Rural Casa dos Viscondes da Várzea, just outside the city of Lamego in the beautiful Douro region, was the perfect setting for the feasting. I've never seen so much food. If this is how weddings roll in Portugal, I'm totally in.

From a photography point of view this wedding was a dream. There was no brief other than the freedom to try and push things creatively. Can't ask for more than that.
