IRELAND WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS

You found us!

We’re Xand & Tine. Two wedding photographers based in Antrim, Northern Ireland.

Over 14 years of wedding photography experience in our pockets means we could probably shoot your day with our eyes closed, but don’t worry, we won’t!

It is truly wild that we, little old us, have photographed hundreds of weddings over the years – from the North to the South of Ireland, all across the UK, and further afield in Paris, Lyon, Tuscany, Ibiza and Taipei.

There aren’t many wedding scenarios we haven’t witnessed so you can go ahead and call us your dream team come true, here to help, at your service.

It’s quite literally our job to be right there in middle of all that crazy goodness a wedding brings. You just kick back and let the day unfold around you, and leave us to do what we do best.

Tell us where and when and we’ll be there!

so why should you believe us?

been there, done that

We’ve been there, done that, got a few t-shirts along the way and took many photos to prove it. There isn’t much we haven’t seen in 14 years… Vows under oak trees, city ceremonies at midnight, dancing with dinosaurs in museums, back garden parties, clifftop elopements, cultural traditions, throwing format out the window. We don’t have preferences – we just love it when you do your thing and let us do ours!

wedding wing people

We’re your time-keepers, buttonhole saviours, wise advisors, biggest cheerleaders, guest schmoozers, kid entertainers, snack finders, drink topper-uppers, golden-hour chasers, dance floor ninjas… to name just a few of the things we get up to beyond capturing the day.

We got you

Hate being in front of the camera? No worries! Concerned about your laughter-induced double chin? Laugh on! Not into the whole smoochy-woochy thing? Us neither! We’re here to bust those wedding day myths and help you to enjoy the process.

our big secret

Wanna know our ‘not-so-secret’ ingredient for success? The people! Taking great photos? Sure, that’s a skill we should be good at in this job. But making you feel comfortable and like the best version of yourselves? That’s where we shine.

not to brag, but we
do wedding films too

Xand’s a total triple threat. Photographer, videographer, and absolute babe.

When you choose him for videography, you get us and what we do best with the added bonus of a killer wedding highlights film to look forward to.

If there’s anything this boy can’t do, we’ll be sure to let you know.

he’s perfect for us!

Kind Words

Navyblur are incredibly gifted photographers and they made our day so special! They both brought so much joy, relaxation and peace to our day. Having them shoot our wedding was one of our favourite parts of the whole day and we had a blast. Xander made my husband feel so at ease in the midst of all the moving parts a wedding can bring. Christine charmed the whole wedding party and made everyone feel so taken care of. I would highly recommend NavyBlur because of their hard work and dedication to ensure every couple gets their perfect day!

Amazing experience with these guys. They also did our engagement shoot. Such a fun chilled couple to work with especially if you feel uncomfortable/awkward around a camera. They are so creative – Xander does some weird and wonderful things with water and leaves and Christine is the best hype girl ever (probs coz she’s got the best hair). In addition to being our photographers they ended up being our time keepers for the day too and were such a calming presence. Loved their process prior to our shoots, we had a couple of zoom calls, they made an effort to really get to know our story which I think can reflect how they work with you. Thanks guys!

– Theo & Suzie

I’m at a loss for words on where to even begin expressing our immense joy and gratitude for the remarkable photos that Christine & Xander have captured. Each photograph perfectly encapsulates all the emotions of the day, preserving candid moments in all their authenticity. The feedback from our guests has been massive— praising not only their incredible photography skills but also their exceptional presence throughout the event, a testament to their role as photographers.

Initially, our intention was for them to document the day’s natural progression. As the bride – In a moments notice I changed my mind and convinced my husband I wanted the artistic photographs. The deal was that if we could do it in ten minutes then game on. Christine and Xander ran to their car made space for us in the back and drove three minutes away to Cushendun Caves where we got some of the most breathtaking photographs – It was more than what we could have asked for – and also the fact that we were able to get so many images all in the span of the ten minute time limit we had before being back to the party. This was a true testament of not only going above and beyond, but going with the flow and taking on the challenge of what a wedding day can bring.

Reflecting on the experience, I find myself wishing that they could have documented the entire weekend. The value of these photographs is beyond measure, destined to be cherished for generations to come. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you guys so much!!

Frequently Asked Questions

Will you travel for weddings?

Absolutely. We’ve done it before and we’ll do it again. Get in touch and let’s get the conversation started.

Do you take family group photos?

We sure do. Although the majority of the day is captured naturally, we are firm believers in the ‘mantlepiece shots’ being super important for years to come. This part of the day can be quick and painless as we run through any variations you’d like to make sure we capture all your favourite people.

When will we receive our full gallery of photos?

You can expect your final photos within 8 weeks of the wedding however we aim send you through a few sneak peeks before then, we’re total teases.

“I hate getting my photo taken”

That’s not technically a question. However, 99.9% of the couples we work with tell us that they aren’t naturals in front of a camera, they have a Chandler Bing smile or that they’ll probably be super awkward. What liars! You’ve seen their glorious faces. We like to keep things fun, relaxed and leave you feeling like you could do it all again tomorrow.

Can you guide us on the timings?

Heck yes we can, it’s one of our many talents! We are super flexible to roll with things on the day, but know how to make it so that you get all those ‘must have’ shots as well as leaving plenty of time for capturing people having the time of their lives.

How many hours will you be with us on the day?

Usually, we turn up for the last 1-2hours of getting ready prep and then that’s it, you’re stuck with us until you hold each other like awkward first years at the school disco on the dance floor. We’ll tend to leave about 30minutes into the dance floor, if we stay longer than that, it just turns into blackmail photography with all the illegal moves going on around us.
