Hunter Valley Bridal Shoot – Part Five – Flowergirl takes over


***ANOTHER BLOG POST WILL BE COMING TOMORROW OF MORE DANIELLE AND LEILA SHOTS THERE WERE TOO MANY FOR ONE POST***

Oh my golly gosh, this blog post would have been up earlier today if I had not had to sort through over 500 files from the last part of the Ironbark Hill bridal shoot! Basically the day before the shoot was planned I had a brilliant idea whilst washing my hair in the shower, I now I have my best ideas in very strange places. Stacey, a great friend and next door neighbour who I am training up to be my assistant agreed to come along and hang out with me for the day. She and Chris had their own wedding only about six weeks ago and their adorable daughter Miss Leila was a flowergirl, can you see how everything is falling into place.

Some people would think I was absolutely crazy for adding a two year old into the mix during a fashion shoot, not me I thought it was just perfect. I have to say a huge thank you to Stacey’s mum Bev for first babysitting and bringing the star model out to us after she had had her nap. The other thing that was so funny was that our lovely model Danielle had not much experience with modelling, let alone a two year old child. After Leila’s initial tantrums we started to have some real fun, if you think that these shots were posed in anyway you clearly have not worked with an independent two year old!

We just went with the flow, and I gave loose direction along the way, that Leila promptly ignored but I was in my element just capturing events as they happened. I has so many favourites there will be another blog post coming of more of the two of them together as the interactions between the two of them were just priceless. I guess this part of the shoot you can get a good feel for how I capture a wedding day too.

Take care, talk soon.

Hunter Valley Bridal Shoot – Part Four


Jumping up and down that I have finally been able to put up Part Four of the Hunter Valley Bridal Shoot at Ironbark Hill. I had originally intended to have these up on Saturday some time but basically my husband Aaron and next door neighbour Stacey had an intervention with me and dragged me away from the computer and made me take a bit of a break. I have been so overwhelmed with the wonderful and fabulous comments and feedback I have had about this shoot that I just wanted to keep going till I had edited and shared all of my favourites.

I am now refreshed and ready to get going on Part Five which I am hoping will be up and live by tomorrow. Remember to scroll down to see all of the previous images and amazing vendors who were involved.

Take care, talk soon.

Hunter Valley Bridal Shoot – Part two of many to come!


I am still on an absolute high from Monday’s promotional shoot at Ironbark Hill Barrel Room and Gallery. If you scroll below this post you will see that I have updated the first post now with all of the supplier information so you can see who made all of this possible. The first summary of images that I posted were to provide an overall sneak peek from the shoot.

It makes sense to me to post groups of images in different blog posts – here are some detail shots of hair and make-up from Blush Brides (profile of Blush Brides to come).
