Mike Patterson is an Irish Wedding, Portrait & fashion photographer based in Galway on the West Coast of  Ireland. I do not restrict myself to the area and as a result have had the pleasure of shooting weddings all over Ireland, in the UK and Denmark also.

Most of the time I shoot on location and will use natural light where possible but I am not afraid to use flash if required especially in light (sorry, pun not intended) of the somewhat dodgy weather we do have in Ireland. It is also important to have fun during the shoots and ensure that any smiles generally are the real ones.

Thanks to Angelo for taking the picture
