Galway Bay Hotel Wedding Photographer

Planning your wedding at Galway Bay Hotel in Salthill? We’re Joe and Ann-Marie, a husband-and-wife team of Galway wedding photographers. We photograph the genuine moments of your day alongside elegant portraits, while keeping the experience relaxed and leaving you plenty of time with your guests.
Galway Bay Hotel’s seafront setting gives us lovely options close to the venue. We’ve photographed couples in the nearby gardens and along Salthill Promenade, as well as the celebrations inside the hotel. We’ll plan around your schedule, the light and the weather so your photographs feel true to your day.

Wedding photographs around Galway Bay Hotel

The gardens beside Galway Bay Hotel offer greenery for family photographs and relaxed portraits. Across the road, Salthill Promenade and the beach bring the sea and Galway Bay into your photographs. We choose locations around the weather and available light, and keep portrait time manageable so you can return to your guests.
At Mary and Brian’s wedding, we photographed them in the gardens and on the beach before joining their guests at the hotel. Nina and Gary’s day showed another side of the venue, with an outdoor ceremony overlooking the bay. Every celebration has its own rhythm, and we photograph it as it unfolds.

Denise & Gareth

Denise and Gareth travelled from the UK with their little boy to celebrate at Galway Bay Hotel. After an outdoor ceremony overlooking the bay, we photographed their family and bridal party in the nearby Memorial Garden, then took a relaxed walk to Salthill Promenade for couple portraits. At dusk, the funfair gave us a colourful change of scene before we returned to the hotel grounds for a few final, playful photographs.
