Weddings

It's always exciting when a wedding I work on makes a feature with one of our many amazing wedding media platforms we have here in the UK. Mostly because it's just so lovely to see all that hard work, planning, excitement and joy that I know the couple went through is now going to be passed on to inspire so many new couples. For Danielle and Ben that's exactly what their Love My Dress feature is all about, scrolling through the pages of dreamy shots by Georgina Harrison it's hard not to get filled with blissful thoughts and ideas of what you'd pinch for your own day. You might remember a couple...

I first chatted to Danielle around the end of March 2020, back whilst we were all still in Lockdown 1, which feels soooo long ago now. If only we knew then what we do now! Anyone else remember thinking it might of all blown over in a couple months at the most? Over a year later, with a lot of patience and careful planning, Danielle and Benjamin were thrilled to finally tie the knot on the 1st of July 2021. With original plans of a romantic Italian destination wedding, Danielle quickly shifted gears as the pandemic took hold and wisely chose an equally desirable second option, the Fig House...

The smallest wedding in the world... Okay I might be exaggerating but when Covid restrictions were still hitting weddings hard not so long ago, illustrators Francis and Nick decided to tie the knot just them and two friends! A four person ceremony, what a lovely intimate way to really make the moment special.     Just because it was a little ceremony doesn't mean Francis couldn't go big on somethings! Her bouquet by Willow and Bear Floral Design was an explosion of colour and texture with such a playful variety of gorgeous blooms it really did make for a lovely piece for our little...

As the nation prepared for lockdown number 3 back at the end of 2020, I was attending my last wedding of the year. With all the cancellations, uncertainty and moving of dates this lovely couple luckily squeezed in this gorgeous micro wedding to tie the knot just in time before weddings were taken out of the equation again for a number of months thanks to the pandemic.     It was the morning of the 4th of November 2020 and the sun was shining as if it were a good omen of the day to come whilst I met with bride to be Helen. We sat and chatted about the excitements...

Last week's blog we were jumping forward in time to AW21 with some Stila for designer Freya Lillie but this week we're throwing it all the way back to August 2019 for Maria and Sean's wedding. I couldn't help but want to share these shots by the always wonderful and talented Margarita Hope Photography that really capture the cool calm and joyful energy of their wedding day.   Maria and Sean are a young couple who you can really tell are truly, madly and deeply in love with each other that the happiness of their day was totally contagious. On the morning of Maria was super calm but still...

This time of year I am normally in the likes of Milan or Paris for fashion week, living my best life rushing between shows creating high end editorial looks for catwalk models. Instead thanks to Covid I am at home celebrating the latest news that we finally have a roadmap to get out of lockdown, which means wedding season is ON! I know it's still all hopeful target dates from Boris, but I will keep all of my fingers and toes crossed that the R rate stays down, vaccine rates stay up and we finally do have an end in sight to what has been truly the most challenging time for us all.

As a make-up artist and all around lover of cream textures on the skin I have been on the quest to find the perfect cream based shade of burgundy. On my hunt high and low to find something to replace my sadly discontinued favourite Bobbi Brown shade, I came across Jillian Dempsey. I was lucky enough that they sent me over a selection of their lid and cheek tints to try my hand at not only for myself but as I am always looking for new exciting additions to pop in my work kit for my upcoming projects. As you may know by now I often like to get my hands involved when applying make-up,...

It's so great to already have work coming out that I've been part of post Lockdown no 1, it was safe to say I was raring to get started on this shoot that was booked in just as work opened back up again for MUA's. So to now see the final results in the limelight is such a proud moment and a reminder to keep me going through the potential woes of lockdown no 2 whilst we figure out how that affects work again. Anyway focusing on something beautiful to uplift the spirits is always a welcome distraction from 2020, so here's my latest work on the QP Jewellers photo shoot for their Autumn Winter 2020...
