Bokeh Photography and Film

'Creative, light-hearted, fun, relaxed, informal and happy' – this is how we would describe our wedding day. Dez managed to capture this in his unique story telling photography style. The emotion of the day was captured beautifully, with a keen eye to attention always in evidence. Dez was brilliant to work with, from our engagement shot to our wedding day. The engagement photo call was a great introduction to Dez and his style which was so professional and friendly. We felt relaxed and at ease in front of the camera. On the morning of our wedding, Dez was great. A bride’s house is so busy but Dez made everyone feel so relaxed, chilled and he captured the most amazing images. He went above and beyond everything from the bride’s house; groom’s house; church; outdoor scenery setting and reception hall. We were conscious to document our guests mingling, chatting and enjoying the wedding atmosphere in a natural, informal style. Dez captured this beautifully. We can fondly look back at images of our guests acting naturally and enjoying our wedding day celebration. Confidence in your vendors is key to any wedding preparation. We fully recommended Bokeh Photography to all future brides and grooms!

Dez was the picture of professionalism, fun, kindness and calm. He went out of his way to get to know everyone and guests spoke afterwards about how they felt so comfortable in his company. This was so important to us from the moment we met Dez we knew that he was the right choice. From the engagement shoot to the wedding, Dez was happy to talk about our vision for the day and showed such creativity in bringing it to life. Dez captured moments that I will cherish forever - my husband and I couldn't recommend him highly enough!

From start to finish Dez was so professional and attentive to our needs and wants. His work is so beautiful I was delighted he was available for our big day. He went above and beyond for us as our wedding day was an absolute washout he put our minds at ease and arranged to take our outdoor photos another day when sun was out and I couldn't of been happier to get dressed up for a second time. We recieved our photos very quickly after. Excellent service and affordable prices. He doesn't know it but he will be our family photographer from now on. Could not of been happier with the results.... Hardest part is picking your favourites to get framed without turning our house into a gallery. Looking forward to working with Dez again in the near future. Photography is an art, this man is a true artist and I am a huge fan.

Dez was a pleasure to work with. He listened to what we wanted and delivered. He was so professional yet so personable at the same time. Our guests as well as us thought he was a great guy and so nice. He wasn't intrusive taking photos in any way. We also love our photos and couldn't be happier with them. We highly recommend him!

When everything was said and done, and the wedding blues had finally kicked in as the day we were planning for 18 months had come and gone, Dez at Bokeh photography sent us an email which would bring us right back into our wedding bubble. Our photos arrived and it was like living the day all over. We were familiar with his work as we decided to book an engagement shoot as a sort of trial run. Needless to say we were so impressed with the photos he returned to us that we booked him straight away. (I was slightly surprised he took the booking as we dragged him all around Dublin, from the Guinness store house, to Howth head and back again haha) On our wedding day we opted for the second shooter which Dez offers in one of his packages. That allowed for both morning preparations to be captured and something we would have never thought of ourselves. His experience became invaluable to us when it came to the small details like that. As you can imagine, you have a lot of people to talk to on your wedding day, and it was like Dez managed to capture each conversation just at the punchline. He spent the morning shooting my wife and her family and he struck up a great relationship with them (including 6 year old molly, who refused to smile until he won her around) The day our photos arrived, the champagne was popped and we both cried, AGAIN. Such a nice reminder of the best day of our lives. And now Dez photography is placed all over our home. We couldn’t him highly enough. The above probably doesn’t do him enough justice, but you really won’t be disappointed if you choose Bokeh. Niall and Lisa Kelly

Working with Dez was the icing on the cake for our wedding day. We traveled to Ireland from the United States and Dez graciously worked with our tight schedule, showing understanding and flexibility along the way. He took the time to get to know us while bringing wonderful energy and creativity to our sessions. The photos were brilliant and my husband and I are still so grateful. Truly, it was like having a trusted friend as our photographer and we look forward to sharing a pint with Dez next time we're in Ireland!

I originally chose Dez as his work looked beautiful and he seemed so down to Earth. My husband and I are very laid back and Dez made the day so relaxing. I barely knew he was there the whole time. He listened to what we wanted and went above and beyond. I love our engagement shoot and wedding photographs and would highly recommend Bokeh photography to everyone. Thanks again Dez!
