Kevin & Paige // Wedding // Terranea Resort, Los Angeles

One of the questions I get asked ALL the time is, 'Do you not get bored of weddings?' Honestly I have to answer NO.

Yes there are times the similarity of some of the weddings can feel challenging, but in all the weddings I have done, the magnitude of the day has never been lost on me, I am always moved and honoured to be asked to witness and document some of the most important moments in peoples lives. However, that being said, when I got a call from my good friend Kevin to say that he got engaged to his beautiful girlfriend Paige, and they wanted to fly me out to LA to document the day, I knew this wouldn't be a wedding where I get asked that question. 

Being present at the moments in your friends lives that matter is essential to being a friend and when you are asked to play a role in creating images that will aid their memories of those moments, it is the best. 

So, I am delighted to share Kevin & Paige's beautiful wedding, from rehearsal dinner to the late night Margaritas at the end of an epic wedding few days on the epic coastline just outside LA .

Peter Rollins // Hollywood, California

Growing up in Belfast I remember the name Peter Rollins being referenced by a lot of people around me. 

Peter is a theologian, speaker, thinker and author from Belfast, who now plies his trade in Hollywood California. I contacted Peter through our mutual friend Phil Harrison to see if he was interested in hanging out when I was in California this October. 

I love doing portraiture work. It challenges me creatively and gives me the opportunity to spend time with some incredibly talented and inspiring individuals, and getting the chance to share a bit of time with Peter was no exception. 

Peter is hosting an online series called Atheism for Lent through March & April, followed by a lecture in Belfast on the 10th of April. Following that he hosts his boutique festival in Belfast called Wake which is in its 5th year.
