This spring, I got to photograph one of the dreamiest engagement sessions ever at Hilton Park Estate in Ireland — and honestly, I’m still not over it. It was styled and hosted by the insanely talented team at Wilde & Sage Co., and everything about it felt straight out of a movie.

Hilton Park is tucked away in the Irish countryside in County Monaghan, and it has this magical, old-world charm that makes you feel like you’re stepping into a love story. There are wild gardens, ivy-covered stone walls, cozy little libraries, and the most beautiful golden light streaming through 18th-century windows. It’s the kind of place that makes my photographer heart so, so happy.

Malika and Dominic were absolutely adorable and had the sweetest, most natural chemistry. They wandered through the gardens, snuggled up in the library, and even kicked their shoes off at one point for some barefoot fun in the courtyard. It all felt super relaxed and genuine — just the way I like my engagement sessions to be.

The styling was really simple and timeless, which let the location do all the talking. She wore a chic white midi dress and classic heels, and he rocked a breezy linen shirt and tan pants — elevated, effortless, and 100% my vibe as a destination engagement photographer in Europe.

I left that day feeling so inspired and full of love (and maybe already dreaming about coming back). If you’re thinking about planning a destination engagement shoot in Ireland, Hilton Park is a total gem. It’s romantic, historic, and packed with character — basically a dream location for couples who want something a little different.

If you’re looking for an Ireland engagement photographer to help bring your vision to life (whether it’s at a grand estate or somewhere off the beaten path), I’d love to chat!
