A few sneak peeks from Ciara and Michael’s wedding at the stunning St Bernard’s and reception at the Millbrook Lodge.

Michael looks extremely dapper in his suit from Bank Menswear but not to be outshone by Ciara in her stunning dress from Curvy Chic Bridal.

Thanks so much to Melissa from for capturing these photos for me! Unreal day with the best of craic! Congrats to two beautiful people ♥️

// Susan and Chris

I met Susan and Chris a few years back when Susan was bridesmaid at another wedding I was blessed to be a part of. I was delighted when they messaged to book in 😊 When you do this job and get to know people it’s hard not to get emotional on their wedding day, and Susan and Chris’s day was no different. Especially when I heard their first dance song 🙈 I’m such a soppy git! Thanks so much Susan and Chris for having me be a part of your day 🙏

Thanks so much to for doing an awesome job shooting photos for me and bringing the craic 😁

// Hey Lovebirds

So many new faces around here. So lovely to meet you.

I’m Jamie. Your photographer and videographer based in Co. Down. who has spent the last 8 years turning “I do’s” into timeless photos and films for you to love for years to come. With nearly 200 weddings under my belt, I’ve perfected the art of capturing love stories, dodging flying bouquets, and being the honorary third wheel you never knew you needed.

Why should you book me?
- I’ll make you laugh, even during those awkward pre-ceremony jitters.
- I’ll make you feel totally comfortable in front of the camera – no stiff poses here!
- I bring over 8 years of wedding wisdom to the table. Need advice on timelines, photo spots, or calming pre-ceremony nerves? I’ve got you.
- Need help with other vendors? I’ve got an amazing network of wedding pros across the country.
- I specialise in candid, natural moments that truly reflect you.

Why shouldn’t you book me?
- If you love cheesy, over-posed photos – we might not be a match!
- If you’re expecting me to resist cake... sorry, I can’t. I’ll be the first to sneak a slice. 🍰
- If you don’t want someone crying happy tears behind the camera during your vows – guilty as charged. 😭 I am here to be your cheerleader and hype person.

What’s the big deal?
It’s your day, and I’m here to make sure every moment is captured exactly as it happens – real, raw, and uniquely you. Whether you’re just engaged (congrats! 💍) or you’ve already booked me, welcome to the Steenson Film & Photography family. I’m here to capture your love story, frame by frame.

On the fence? Let’s get a chat and I can show you what all the fuss is about or check out what my couples have to say about me through my google reviews

// LEAH & JACK
I cannot tell you how much fun I had celebrating Leah and Jack’s wedding at the weekend. Getting to see these two tie the knot was a real privilege and one I certainly won’t forget in a hurry.

Also, I have found one of my new favourite venues 😍 Limepark (limepark.ni) is truly such an incredible spot to film at. Everything in close proximity, every corner a photo opportunity, and the owners, Angela and Glenn, were so welcoming! I cannot wait to get back there.

Check out some sneak peek photos shot for me by the talented Mr Leigh Parke (). Thanks for all your help, buddy! The craic, as always, was the best.

// THE THING IS…

While engagement/pre-wedding photo sessions aren’t necessary, they really allow me to get to know you guys as a couple.

On your wedding day, there will likely be some nerves around being filmed or having your photograph taken, it’s only natural but another massive benefit of having an engagement/pre-wedding session is that you guys will know exactly what to expect on your wedding day whilst being in front of the camera. Trust me, it isn’t anywhere near as daunting as you’d expect. I make it super easy 😊

Lastly, and let’s be honest, probably the best frickin reason is to get some awesome photos for your socials! Am I wrong? 😁

YESTERDAY…

I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Rebecca and Lee at Lady Dixon Park for a wee adventure and a good old chin wag. They told me to be prepared for awkward poses but as the photos will tell, they did nothing but rock the show!

Two stunners who I can’t wait to see tie the knot 🤵‍♂️👰‍♀️ Roll on September!

It was an honour to capture these precious moments and create memories that will last a lifetime. 💕

// BRIDAL PREP

The morning of your wedding day is a time filled with excitement, anticipation, and maybe even a few jitters. That's why having the right photographer or videographer there to capture those moments during your bridal prep is so important! These are the moments that you'll cherish forever, and having a professional photographer or videographer there to capture them ensures that you'll be able to relive them for years to come. Trust us, you won't regret it! 💕📷

Here are some helpful tips for brides on the morning of their wedding:

- Give yourself plenty of time: Make sure you have enough time to get ready without feeling rushed or stressed. Plan your timeline carefully and stick to it. Your photographer/videographer can help you with this if needed

- Stay relaxed: Try to stay as relaxed as possible. Take deep breaths, listen to calming music, and enjoy the moment.

- Surround yourself with positivity: Surround yourself with people who make you feel happy and relaxed. Your bridesmaids and family members are there to support you, so lean on them for encouragement and positivity.

- Keep hydrated: Make sure you drink plenty of water throughout the morning to keep yourself hydrated and feeling your best.

- Have a first look with your bridesmaids or parents: If there is time, take a minute or two to have a first look with your bridesmaids. It's a great way to capture some special moments and create memories that you'll cherish forever.
