For the love of lace

Thursday, 18 April 2013


Antique lace makes my heart sing so I couldn't have been happier hunting around London's vintage stores to find the prettiest dresses and accessories for this styled shoot. We wanted to show how modern and antique lace can be used on your wedding day and the gorgeous modern bridalwear was provided by Ian Stuart Bride who uses lace in such incredible ways.

I saw some pretty Daffodils today and it dawned on me that Spring is on the way... a pretty new season to photograph!

Love in bloom

Monday, 16 April 2012

This gorgeous March wedding was bursting with Spring flowers, collected by the bride from a flower market and beautifully arranged on tables, in bouquets and pretty button holes.

What I also loved about this wedding was how the couple's daughter Isla played a central part in their day. All of the children at the wedding were carefully considered with sweet personalised Peppa Pig table settings and a big box of toys at the reception. Family were placed first at this wedding but the bride, Jane, still managed to showcase her chic design ideas with stunning results.

Spring flowers

Wednesday, 28 March 2012

My March brides really inspired me with their Spring flower creations. One bride grew her own daffodils which were used to create cascading ceiling arrangements and a lush yellow bouquet while the other gathered up a beautiful collection at a flower market and used them to create colourful bouquets, sweet table decorations and pretty buttonholes for the groomsmen. Spring is such a beautiful season!
