PPANI Awards 2025… what a night you were! 🎉
We are absolutely over the moon to announce that McVeigh Studio has won Wedding Photographer of the Year AND Wedding Reportage Photographer of the Year at the PPANI Awards 2025! 📸
To be recognised in not one, but two categories is an incredible honour, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the trust and support we’ve received from our amazing clients, friends, and the wedding industry. Every couple we’ve had the pleasure of working with has made this possible, and we are truly humbled by this recognition.
A massive thank you to the PPANI for these accolades and to the amazing judging panel who had to work their way through over 700 images from the highly talented photographers in the PPANI, to get to this stage.
We’re beyond excited for the journey ahead and can’t wait to capture more unforgettable moments!

Gia & Kevin’s beautiful day at The Whistledown Hotel ✨
Set right on the shores of Carlingford Lough, this one had such a relaxed, coastal feel from the very start. Gia & Kevin were an absolute pleasure to work with — so easygoing and just fully enjoying every moment of their day together.
We stepped outside for some portraits with that incredible backdrop, making the most of the views before heading back in for a lively evening filled with laughter, music, and a dance floor that didn’t slow down 💃🕺
A brilliant celebration from start to finish — thanks so much for having us capture it!

Excited to share the fabulous news that my images have been selected by a panel of World Class Judges, and have earned a place in the finals of the PPANI annual awards!
The panel of judges had the difficult task of critiquing the huge selection of amazing images, where just the top 5 from each category go forward to the final.
I am delighted to have made it through to 2 categories.
