Absolutely Magical!

There honestly aren't enough words to describe how amazing Holly and Bruce are as photographers and in general as people! From the instant we hired them to photograph our wedding, they have been so helpful, supportive, and kind. Holly took our engagement photos as well and they came out absolutely stunning and she made us feel so comfortable the entire time. While Holly was photographing my bridesmaids and I as we were getting ready, she made us all feel so beautiful. Her calm, sweet demeanor made everyone feel excited for the day ahead. While Bruce photographed my husband and his groomsmen, he was entertaining, funny, and brought a good atmosphere to the getting ready process. They both knew the best spots to take photos at our venue and brought so much fun and joy into our wedding day. We are so grateful to have had them as our photographers and can't thank them enough! We absolutely love Holly and Bruce!

Above and Beyond Service!

Beyond late with my reviews. Our wedding was March of 2019. I’m not sure where to begin with this review. In a nutshell Holly and Bruce are just amazing to work with! We had them on our list along with a couple other photographers we wanted to check out. We attended the Bridal Bazaar to meet with prospects. We happen to run into their booth without even looking for them yet. They were easy to get along with from the start and no other booth compared to how personable they were. The rest of our process from the engagement shoot to our wedding photos was so effortless. I was a wee bit nervous about the engagement shoot, wondering how we will be posing for an hour with my now husband not getting frustrated. Holly made the hour go by so fast and we had so much fun doing it! She just directed us so easily that all our shots looked so natural!
Prior to our wedding Holly and I made a list of shots we wanted. At the wedding Bruce and Holly made such a good team using that list to help get our family members in the photos in a timely manner. They are both extremely professional and are in the right industry of photography. I had moments of stressing out due to our timeline, I did not allocate enough time for photos but Holly never once showed any frustration when I would get distracted and not listen to her instructions lol. She always kept a smile on her face! Lastly she saved my day by helping me do my bustle. I almost wasn’t going to be able to put it up but she went above and beyond helping me. We received our photos in a timely manner and they were great of course! Both Holly and Bruce do an amazing job at directing and capturing candid photos. Some of my favorite photos were of our 1st dance and them capturing how sweet that moment was! I highly recommend Holly Ireland Photography they are just so personable, it's like having invited them as guests! Plus they help you stay calm while documenting your big day!

Amazing to work with and beautiful photos

Holly and Bruce are not only amazing photographers they are great people. I can't say enough great things about them. I met Holly and Bruce at a wedding show. There are so many wedding photographers to pick from and after meeting Holly and Bruce my fiance and I knew before we got in our car that we had to hire them before someone else did. We loved that they are a wife and husband team and we loved their photography style. They are so friendly and cared about what we wanted so no details were missed or left out. They got our photos back to us so fast after our wedding and we love them all! They captured the details, the emotion of our wedding day and everything from start to finish.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
