About Michael Black
Award-winning wedding videographer & photographer in Dublin, Ireland
I’m Michael – husband, father and the storyteller behind Michael Black Wedding. For six years and more than 300 weddings, I’ve been creating cinematic wedding films and photographs that feel exactly like your day did: honest, emotional and completely yours.

My story
First of all – I’m so glad you’re here
I’m Michael, a Dublin-based wedding videographer and photographer, a husband and a dad. Over the last six years I’ve filmed more than 300 weddings – and because family is at the centre of my own life, I know what your wedding day really holds, and how fast it goes.
My job is to transform those magical hours into your personal love story, merging a documentary style with cinematic finesse. I don’t stage your day – I read it. The look between you at the top of the aisle, your dad’s hand on your shoulder, the second the whole room erupts on the dance floor. That is what I am there for.
My goal is to create entirely unique memories that belong to one couple only – you. And my honest advice? Pick a videographer and photographer you feel genuinely comfortable with, someone you can be yourself around. That is when the most beautiful moments happen.
I can’t wait to hear your story – Michael
Awards & recognition
Videographer of the Year – four years in a row
I’m deeply honoured to have been named Wedding Videographer of the Year at the weddingsonline Awards in 2023, 2024, 2025 and again in 2026 – recognised as the best wedding videographer in Ireland four consecutive times.
My work has also been featured on One Fab Day, and I’m a member of WEVSY, the Wedding & Event Videographers Society. Awards are wonderful, but what I’m proudest of are the 300+ couples and the films behind them.

My approach
How I tell your wedding story
My shooting and editing style is fresh, upbeat and candid. I want my films and photographs to carry the genuine emotions you feel on your wedding day.
Documentary at heart
Real moments, never forced. I work quietly in the background so you can enjoy your day while I capture the laughter, the tears and everything in between.
Cinematic in finish
Careful framing, natural light, clean sound and music chosen to fit you. Every film is edited like a short movie – timeless rather than trendy.
Calm, friendly presence
Relaxed couples make the best films. I keep things easy-going, guide you gently when it helps, and never take over your day.
“Not just how things looked on the outside – but how every single moment felt on the inside.”

Wedding films & photography
Videography and photography from one storyteller
You can book me for your wedding film, your wedding photography – or both, for one consistent look across your whole day.
Having the same person behind your film and your photographs means one calm presence instead of two crews, one shared vision of your story, and pictures and footage that feel like they belong together. From cinematic highlight films to timeless photographs, everything is crafted to be watched and shared for a lifetime.
Where I film
Weddings across Dublin, all of Ireland – and beyond
Based in Dublin, I film and photograph weddings in every corner of Ireland – from intimate city ceremonies and country house celebrations to Ireland’s grandest castles and five-star estates. And if you’re planning a destination wedding, I’ll happily pack my cameras – no destination is too far.
