"We could not have been happier with Barbara McGroary. She was always professional from the first conversation to delivering the photos. Barbara was patient, and thoughtful with our large group. The photos are a memory we will always have and treasure, of our time in Ireland. Thank you Barbara for making our memories last forever."

"We had the best time with Barbara, she was the most friendly, down to earth and patient lady behind the camera! She was a breath of fresh air and went at the pace that we wanted! There was lots of laughs from start to finish! The finished article of our wedding album is absolutely breathtaking, over and above what we were expecting and in such a fast turn around! Having our album with is 13 weeks post wedding we were delighted! Thanks again Barbara!"

"We chose Barbara as our photographer because we wanted a female wedding photographer, from the minute we contacted Barbara until she said goodbye to us on the day of the wedding she was amazing, She has a real eye for candid photos which we loved and a lot of them you are not expecting so the reaction of the person being photographed is natural and so beautiful to look at in a photo! Barbara’s black and white images are the best I’ve ever seen! She wasn’t just our wedding photographer she mucked in the morning of the wedding helping to fix dresses, put on shoes, fix ties etc! We are so happy we chose Barbara as our wedding photographer and we have some beautiful photos and albums of our wedding day!"

"Barabara captured what was an amazing day - her wedding photographs were inspired, beautiful, funny and captured the vibe of the day. She came to the house the morning of the wedding and captured the complete day: getting ready, the overnight guests, heading off to the registry office. We had a small wedding followed by a low-key reception all of which Barbara managed to document, without being obtrusive. Every time I see our pictures, it brings the whole day back immediately - the formal, friends, family and fun. There were so many good pictures, it took me ages to decide which ones to frame. Our friends and family loved our books - the story of our day. Barbara is a great find, just viewing her gallery will give you an idea of her style of photography."

"My wife and I recently eloped to Ireland. Barbara captured our wedding day beautifully! From beginning to end the experience was very relaxed and felt like we were hanging out with an old friend. We couldn’t be happier with the results."

"Barbara recently helped me with a surprise proposal to my now fiancée at Harvey's Point near Donegal. She had some great suggestions for locations and helped me decide on a beautiful spot near the lakeshore, and even brought her son along as a decoy to help with the element of surprise. The pictures she took of the event are fantastic and we are beyond thrilled with how they turned out. Barbara was also a pleasure to work with and could not have been more kind. I recommend her with the utmost enthusiasm!"

Christina Broll,

"We organised Barbara to do a family photo shoot recently as a present for our new little niece arriving. From start to finish Barbara was so professional, patient with the kids and so relaxed. Nothing was a bother to her and even when the kids weren't playing ball it didn't faze her in the slightest. She captured some lovely photos and we all have some beautiful memories we will cherish forever.  We will definitely have Barbara do more photos for us in the future "
