    Hi all,
    I am hoping that someone might be able to point me in the right direction in finding out if anyone stores the photos taken by the late Joe McGrath. He took my wedding photos back in 2003. We were living abroad at the time and so while we got an album we didn't get any other photos as we moved frequently. That album has been damaged in a fire and now we have no photos to show of the day as believe it or not in 2003 the age of camera phones etc hadn't arrived. We have kids now and would love to be able to get some photos of the day esp since my husbands dad is no longer with us. If anyone could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it. I don't know if his lovely wife Breda is still in Waterford or not as she may be able to help. I no longer live in Waterford and getting nowhere with phonecalls so hoping this will help. Thanks in advance

    These are all gone to archive. Contact the council and assuming you know your wedding date (:eek:), you should get them handy enough.

    I'd contact the local papers. They should be able to put you in touch with someone as I'd imagine he would have had dealings with them over the years?
