Catherine O’Hara is an English speaking wedding, elopement, engagement and proposal photographer based in Paris, France

“Great stories are made of a series of real moments and emotions…”

And this is exactly what I set out to achieve when I document a wedding, capturing these wonderful, fleeting moments of your special day.

I was born and raised in Ireland with a predominately equestrian background, my love for horses dominating from an early age. Later, I realised my other love, photography, and after a period of only simply dreaming of it I decided to take the plunge and enrolled in a Masters of Photography course at Speos Photographic Institute in the most romantic city in the world, Paris and I haven’t looked back.

My approach is photojournalistic in style and manner, unobtrusive and quiet. I believe in capturing the joy and beauty of your special day with minimum interference. I look for the smiles, the elation, the dancing, the subtle glances, the proud parents and the special little details that make your day as unique as you both are. I gather all these special and intimate moments to help tell the story of what makes you an amazing couple.

I am a member of the Wedding Photojournalist Association www.wpja.com which is an International, membership-based organization representing professional photographers skilled in the documentation of weddings and events in a candid, unobtrusive style.

People look their most real and alive when they are unaware of the camera.

If the couple wishes there is the opportunity of course for group shots and some directed shots of the couple also, in any beautiful locations that your venue has to offer. This can be decided upon in advance of the wedding day.

There are options of full day packages where I arrive for the bride and groom preparations and stay until the first dance or later into the celebrations! There is also the option of half day or shorter day coverage depending on the couples needs and budgets. Feel free to email me to discuss your wishes.

Engagement shoots are becoming more and more popular these days and are a wonderful addition to the run up to your wedding. They are relaxed, intimate shoots that allow me to capture you as a couple under stress free conditions and get to know each others personality and style. These can also be shot post wedding capturing the radiant post glow newly weds have! This is an optional extra to your package.

All packages include hi-res images on a cd or uploaded to an ftp site for your convenience.
