As a wedding photographer I love a natural and elegant way of story telling, capturing moments as your day unfolds. 

Keeping your wedding photos relaxed and candid. I simply use what's there. Very minimal directing or modifying the natural course of events. Keeping things relaxed and cheerful and always up for some fun. 

It would be wonderful to be a part of your special day, I look forward to hearing from you.

Dee is an incredible wedding photographer and we couldn’t have asked for better. We live in the UK but got married back home in Cork and organising everything virtually was so easy with her. She took the time to get to know us, understand our personalities and the style of photos we liked, and helped plan the photography around our day.
On the day, she was calm, fun, and instantly made us feel comfortable. She captured such a beautiful mix of natural moments, laughter, silliness and stunning portraits. The photos feel so genuinely “us” and we are struggling to narrow down our favourites.
Even after the wedding Dee sent us a sneak peek and a lovely Instagram slideshow set to a song by my favourite band, which was such a personal touch. We also received a beautiful keepsake USB with all of our photos.
If you’re looking for a wedding photographer in Ireland, Dee is incredibly talented and such a lovely person to have with you on your wedding day. We feel so lucky to have had her capture ours.

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day. From the moment we met her, her gentle and calming nature instantly put us at ease—it truly made the whole day feel effortless. She blended in so naturally while capturing the most special, candid moments, many of which we hadn’t even realized were happening until we saw the photos. The quality of her work is simply amazing, and to our delight, she even sent us a sneak peek of some beautifully edited shots just a few days after the wedding. We’re so grateful to have had her there on our big day and can’t recommend her highly enough!

We couldn't recommend Dee enough if you're looking for a wedding photographer! She made everyone around her feel so comfortable throughout the day, was so patient and has such an amazing style of photography that was exactly what we were looking for - all the usual portraits but also those in the moment photographs that really capture the essence of the day.

Thank you Dee! It was an absolute pleasure to work with you.
Response from DRene Plunkett Photography
Ellan & Damian were a dream to work with, chilled, fun, and enjoyed each other so much on the day. It was a fantastic celebration, and one i'm so happy to have been a part of. Thank you.

We had an engagement photoshoot with Dee and then had her for our special wedding day. She is super relaxed and made us both feel at ease instantly. She is a candid photographer which we loved because we were able to spend extra time with our friends/family while she took lovely candid snaps on the day! We also did organised family photos too. We feel she really captured the day and the people perfectly. I wouldn’t hesitate recommending Dee to be your photographer - her photos too speak for themselves ❤️Thank you so much Dee! You are the best!

We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful photographer than Dee. From the moment she arrived on site, she was calm, organised, and incredibly attentive—keeping everything running smoothly while making us feel completely at ease. Her care and dedication on the day truly stood out, and she captured every moment so beautifully.

The quality of her photos is absolutely amazing, and we’ll treasure them forever. Dee has such a special way of capturing genuine moments, and we’re so grateful to have had her as part of our day.

Dee Plunkett is an absolute master of her trade. Excellent communication from the outset of contacting her for our wedding photography right up until our sneak peak photos which we received far sooner than we expected. On the day Dee was impressively cool, calm and gently in control of our somewhat unruly 180 guests and the nervy bride and groom. She expertly navigated our high emotions on the morning capturing heartwarming and incredibly beautiful photos of us and our dear friends and family who were around us. We enjoyed a delightful chat on the way to our private couple photos where she cleverly improvised candids and planned photographs including surprisingly beautiful shots from a toilet break in a local pub. Couldn’t recommend DRene Plunkett Photography enough. We are overjoyed with our photographs and with her style on the day. The result of Dee’s work exceeded our wildest expectations. Don’t hesitate to choose her services to capture your special occasion. Our bachelor friends are saying they can’t wait to get married after seeing our photographs lovingly shot by Dee!

I feel honored to have been the chosen one to capture your utterly gorgeous day. A big thank you to you both.

Dee was our dream photographer to capture our wedding day. Calm, professional, with an eye for the details we would have completely missed. It’s clear she loves what she does, and this comes through in her photos. We’re over the moon with the photos we’ve received, our biggest problem is choosing our favourites! We would recommend Dee without hesitation, her work speaks for itself and she is a complete joy to work with.

Thanks guys! I loved your day so much!! It'll be one of those weddings that stay with me forever.

Dee photographed our wedding at the beginning of the month, and writing this review is so easy because she was just brilliant!
In the lead up to the day, Dee listened to all our ideas, opinions, concerns and worked around us for our timeline.
On the day, she was a really calming presence, great fun to work with, and captured some amazing moments! The weather got in the way of our original plans of taking pictures outside but Dee’s skills meant our final pictures weren’t any less special.
I am obsessed with the photos, each one brings us back and really captures the moment, I can almost hear them. We had fun taking them, there was no stress and they perfectly portrayed us and our wedding day.
If you are looking for a photographer, look no further than Dee, we couldn’t have asked for better.
Response from DRene Plunkett Photography
Thank you so very much for your lovely review Katja, yourself and Graham were great to work with and what I loved most, was seeing how much you enjoyed your own day. Thank you for choosing me!

Myself and my husband hired Dee as we could see her exceptional skill and eye for detail on her instagram page from previous weddings we had done. Little did we realise however we had just made the most incredible decision for our wedding day. Dee has the warmest heart and made us feel so relaxed on the day. She managed to capture moments with us as a couple and with family/friends that will be forever cherished. Dee’s talent and personality make her the ideal photographer and if you have the chance to snap her up for your day take it because she going places! Thank you Dee, we will forever remember your kindness and company on our special day.

We were so glad we found Dee! My wife and I planned a ten year anniversary trip to Ireland and wanted to do an informal vow renewal in Gougane Barra. Our search began eight months before our May date, trying to find a great photographer in County Cork to capture the occasion. We ended up finding an AMAZING photographer in Dee who was flexible with our time requests and made us feel at ease during the entire shoot. She requires a 3 hour minimum to book and it is absolutely worth it; she was dedicated and considerate of every minute to help capture this memory.

If you are looking for a photographer to capture a wedding, a family photo shoot, engagement, or anniversary she should be a front runner in your consideration. The few photos I’ve shared are just a fraction of the hundreds of amazing shots she took and provided to us. You won’t regret booking Dee!

It was the most wonderful afternoon, spent with Colin and Kirby. Feel so honoured to have been a part of their special occasion. Thank you so much.

We recently just had our wedding in the Gorgeous Dean hotel in Cork. I came across a wedding Drene had done in the Dean previously, the photos were stunning and I knew we needed her for ours. We cannot recommend Drene enough. From the moment she arrived her calm, kind nature and her pure professionalism made for a very relaxed Bride and Groom and we could not imagine having someone else. She made sure we captured everything that we wanted and We look forward to seeing the end photos. Amazing person and amazing Photographer!!! Highly recommend!!! Thanks again Drene, Maurice and Sarah.

I'm so happy that you chose me to be a part of your day.
I wish you both an eternity of happiness together.

Dee was our photographer for our wedding in September. She was great to work with, very warm, relaxed, and professional in both the organising beforehand, and on the day itself. We were delighted with the photos we received, Dee captured some great moments throughout the day and managed to get some really good creative photos in our shoot too by a nearby lake. We were really pleased we chose Dee for our wedding day, thanks Dee!
