Monochrome Elegance: Nathalie and Vivian’s Wedding Day

Introducing our clients, Nathalie and Vivian. They just tried the knot last summer, surrounded by their children, family, and friends. The day was stylish and full of fun and entertainment. And this is obvious because this is their big day after all. I’m Robert Justynski, a professional photographer, and I was at their venue for wedding photography, while White Thorn Media handled the videography.

Where Does the Story Start?

The two lovebirds actually met when they were teenagers. As we asked Nathalie about their love story, she briefly shared their beginning: “Vivian and I met when we were teenagers, as we lived in the same area in Galway city, we have been together for over 15 years and have two wonderful children together. He proposed to me on July 3rd, 2024, while watching the sunset in Ibiza.”

What Was the Wedding Plan?

Well, our client Nathalie planned a sophisticated wedding that wasn’t too fussy! She chose tuxedos for the guys and a white color palette for the florals. All of these choices create a monochrome look. She dressed her bridesmaids in Bermuda blue and added pearl details throughout for contrast.

As I discussed with Nathalie about her exceptional outfit choices, she shared all the details: “My dress was a beautiful lace, sweetheart neckline, fitted dress, by Mark Lesley, and I added a Justin Alexander Overskirt to it. My veil was a cathedral-length soft satin with pearl and beading along the edge, which matched my shoes, both from JJs House.”

Where Was the Wedding Ceremony?

The wedding venue is also one of the best locations out there, The Shearwater Hotel & Spa in Ballinasloe, Galway. This venue is considered a premier wedding venue for its modern elegance, versatile ballrooms, and personalized service. Nathalie & Vivian were impressed by the warm welcome and hospitality they received. The décor and the packages available for them.

What about Photography & Videography?

Well, our couple has planned their big day in the best way possible. That’s why White Thorn Media and I tried our best to provide them with sophisticated images. Here’s what I have clicked on their big day:

• The Ceremony: Documentary-style images of the vows and exchange.

• Speeches & Toasts: Reaction shots of guests and close-ups of the speakers.

• First Dance: Low-Light cinematic coverage of the evening party.

• Candid Moments: I always focus on real people and real moments rather than posed or staged shots.

I’m excited to share that our clients, Nathalie and Vivian, loved our work. They have shared encouraging feedback about our work. Here it is:

“Robert & Bart – absolutely phenomenal. They captured every detail throughout the whole day. They made us so at ease, and we had great craic with them. They blended so beautifully into the day that we didn’t feel like they were even there. There was no pushing or feeling that the camera was directly in our faces. I have recommended these guys to everyone. The level of detail in their work is outstanding.”

My Clients’ Favorite Moments!

In a brief discussion with Nathalie, she shares her favorite moments with me, and thankfully, I have captured almost all her close-to-heart memories. Here’s what she has said about her favorite moments:

“Some of my favourite memories of the day were getting ready in the morning with all my girls and family around me. Doing a first look with my two sons outside the church, and their reaction to seeing their Mommy in my wedding dress. Walking up the aisle with my dad to my husband and seeing all our nearest and dearest there to celebrate. Walking into our Reception as husband & Wife to the cheers and claps of all our amazing family & guests.”

When it comes to wedding photography, my primary goal is to capture the best images using my skills and creativity. If you are planning your wedding, you can contact me to learn more about my wedding photography & videography services.
