Great Gatsby Glamour {Styled Shoot}

It has been a while since I have had all these ideas buzzing in my head!

It's not easy to put them into practice as it requires a lot of hard work and organization oh and time!

When Edes House contacted me to do some photos of their beautiful house to use on promotional material I didn't think twice about asking if it would be OK to set up a styled photoshoot onsite after the  promo photos had been taken.

Emma was ever  so lovely and agreed to it!!

So I then managed to get 2 beautiful dresses on Loan from Proposals Chichester to fit the style I was trying to go for, 1920's....

Through the power of facebook I found a wonderful local artist who makes the moset delicious headpieces. When I told her what plans were she was only too happy to create a one off piece just to suit our Great Gatsby idea... I was blown away when she showed me what she had created, and we named her Evelyn there and then, which as it happens, is my little girls' middle name so it was just meant to be!!

Another friend recommended a local lady who makes bespoque wedding flowers...She created a wonderful bouquet and button hole to fit the style perfectly.

I then went on to find the perfect couple to model for me!  You can't fake the chemistry in a real couple so I was determined to find one rather than just a male and female model... Nicole and Henre came to the rescue and they were perfect!

We also had the best hair and MAU artist in the land, Chelle, who managed to make Nicole look absolutely stunning (not that she wasn't before hand!)  in no time!

So after all the stress and new grey hairs, it somehow came together , even though the traffic tried to ruin it for us!

These are some of my favourite frames from the day.  I hope you enjoy!!!

Fabulous Workshop!

Woah,  I have really abandoned the blog in favour of other important stuff but I am determined to not let it happen again (until next time that is!)

I have been a very busy bee with a few weddings and family sessions which I will blog soon.

One of the highlights of the year so far was attending a Workshop in Brimingham by the super talented Steve Gerrard.

Absolutely loved the location (Custard Factory) and the amazing couple he found to pose for us.

I came away with a long list of must haves and an incredible amount of inspiration.

Here are some of the photos I took.


The amazingly beautiful dress is from The Couture Company Designer wedding gowns, if you haven't yet please do check their beautiful gowns and accesories out... I promise you won't be dissapointed!
