Luxury wedding photography that stays quiet and natural
Luxury is rarely about the loudest details. It is the unhurried morning, the room that has been prepared with care, the people who matter standing together, and photographs that feel exactly like the day did. That is how we photograph, at some of the finest wedding venues in Northern Ireland.
We have photographed weddings at Larchfield Estate, Killeavy Castle Estate, Galgorm Resort, Old Court on Strangford Lough and Drenagh Estate, and at Tullyveery House, the Carriage Rooms at Montalto Estate and Mount Stewart. We know how these places work on the day, where the light falls and how to move around a beautifully styled room without disturbing it.
Our style is documentary first, with relaxed creative portraits. You will not be marched around for hours or asked to hold stiff poses. We stay close, stay calm and let the day unfold, which is why guests and suppliers tend to forget we are there.
Refined, unhurried and true to the day.

The experience
What a luxury wedding day needs from its photographer
A beautifully planned wedding deserves photography that fits around it. From your first message to the day your gallery arrives, we keep everything calm, clear and personal, so you can enjoy your day and trust us with the rest.
Two photographers who move quietly through your day, never interrupting your ceremony, your speeches or your guests. Many of the best moments happen when nobody is looking.
We talk through your day with you beforehand, and we work with your wedding planner and the venue team if you have them, so the photography fits around everything you have arranged.
A natural, true to life edit with real colour, real light and real emotion. Fine art in feel, never over processed, so your gallery still looks timeless years from now.
Your online gallery within six weeks, with high resolution downloads, and handcrafted Storybook albums made in Italy and designed by us.

Husband and wife team
Two photographers, one team who know each other inside out
We are Tommy and Laurene, and we have photographed weddings together since 2014. After all these years we can read each other across a room without saying a word, which means two perspectives on your wedding and a team that works as one.
The two people you chat to when you first get in touch are the two people who turn up on your wedding day. Whether you are marrying at a castle, a country house or a lough shore estate, there is never a second shooter you have never met, and never a handover to someone else.
We photograph your getting ready, your first look at each other and your portraits, always in a natural, unposed way.
While one of us is with you, the other is watching your partner's reaction, your parents and your guests, which is where so many of the best moments happen.
Most of your day is spent capturing it as it happens. We only borrow you for a short walk and some good light, so you are back with your guests before you know it.
Heirloom albums
Your wedding day, in your hands
A gallery is lovely, but an album is something you can hold. Our Storybook albums are handcrafted in Italy by Graphistudio, using heirloom quality materials and fine art paper, and we design every one ourselves, page by page, so it tells the story of your day in the order it happened.
- You see a digital proof before anything is printed
- Delivered within eight weeks of confirming your order
- A 30 x 20 Storybook album is included in our Forever collection
- Legacy includes a 40 x 30 album and two parent book albums
What our couples say
Kind words from luxury venue couples
What couples say about having Tommy and Laurene photograph their wedding day at Killeavy Castle Estate, Drenagh Estate and Larchfield Estate. Every review was written by a couple we photographed.
We honestly could not have chosen better photographers for our wedding day. Thank you for capturing not only beautiful photos, but the emotions, the love, and the little moments that we will treasure forever. Looking through our gallery honestly made us cry because it felt like reliving the entire day all over again. Thank you for being so kind, patient, and amazing throughout everything. We truly could not recommend you enough.
Where to start, firstly we are delighted with our wedding photos they are amazing and really captured our day. I’m not one who enjoys getting my photo taken in fact I was even considering not having a photographer at the wedding however I’m so happy I did and even more delighted that we chose Pure Photo NI. Tommy & Laurene made us feel so relaxed and comfortable when getting the photos done. It was as if we had know them a life time. You made getting photos taken an enjoyable experience which was something I never could have imagined.
Tommy & Laurene captured our wedding day beautifully. Everything was seamless from start to finish! We were keen to have a relaxed approach to our photos, capturing not just the main shots but also the finer details of the day. The results are amazing and exactly what we had in mind. Tommy & Laurene are easy going and great craic, they were a joy to work with. We’re so glad we chose Pure Photo N.I and would recommend them to anyone.

Which luxury wedding venues do you photograph?

We love working at new venues too, so wherever you choose, we would be happy to photograph it.
Why choose a husband and wife team for a luxury wedding?
Because both Tommy and Laurene photograph every wedding. While one of us photographs you, the other is watching your partner's reaction, your parents and your guests. The two people you meet at the start are the two people who turn up on the day, and after more than ten years together we work as one.
What is your photography style?
Documentary first, with relaxed creative portraits. We capture your day as it happens, in a natural, true to life edit that feels fine art without being over processed. There is no stiff posing and no long list of set up shots.
Will we have to pose for hours?
No. Most of your day is spent capturing it as it happens. We only borrow you for around thirty minutes of creative portraits, a short walk and some good light, plus quick, organised group photographs, so you are back with your guests before you know it.
Do you work with wedding planners and venue teams?
Yes. We are happy to talk through your timings with your planner and the venue team beforehand, so the photography fits around everything you have arranged and we stay out of the way of your other suppliers.
Do you offer wedding albums?
Yes. Our Storybook albums are handcrafted in Italy by Graphistudio and designed by us, and you see a digital proof before anything is printed. A 30 x 20 album is included in Forever, and Legacy includes a 40 x 30 album and two parent book albums. See our albums.
Do you travel for weddings outside Northern Ireland?
Yes. We photograph weddings all over Northern Ireland and Ireland, and there is no extra travel charge for weddings within Northern Ireland. A travel supplement applies to venues outside Northern Ireland.
