1st images from shoot

 Well this is the 1st image from the wedding shoot. All the models are not professionals we thought that this represented what we all do, which is taking you the bride and groom and making you the stars of your own show.

 The photographer SteelOrchid http://www.steelorchid.co.uk/ have done an amazing job considering the day was so overcast that even the rooms lighting was badly effected. So hats of to you both Chris and Mike for providing us with stunning images and these are just taster shots. 

 

This was taken in the Bridal suite at Haslington Hall. http://www.tailormadevenues.com/haslington-hall.html
 The amazing dress Bluebell and the jewellery in this shot was provided by Cheshire Bridal Wear http://www.cheshirebridalwear.co.uk/. A stunning fantasy of a dress, I think you'll all agree, we used this dress in one of our Black and White themed shoots based on a 30's 40's Hollywood masked ball . The mask we used for this shoot was the amazing filigree mask "Katherine" provided by http://www.masqueboutique.co.uk/.  You can see it in more detail below.

Earrings were models own.
Make up and hair by Vickie Quinn 07894 584847


Same dress, tiara and necklace also by Cheshire Bridal Wear "Yvonne" Heirloom bouquet by http://www.tiny-gems.co.uk/
Hair and make up by LA Hair and Make-up contact through http://www.totalpamper.co.uk/

We did another black and white shoot with this dress "Whitney" also from Cheshire Bridal Wear, Fascinator was also provided by them.  A very different look and you will have to wait to see other images to see what we did with it .This image was also taken in the Bridal Suite at Haslington Hall

We set up one table as an example of how we would have dressed the 1930s slash 40's Hollywood feel table , more images and details still to come . The stunning arrangement was provided by Acer Florists website is http://www.flowershopfrodsham.co.uk/ and the amazing candelabra "Windsor" is from http://www.muniquedesigns.com/

Much much more to come over the next few days

Madison and Sarah Thanks to Sarah for letting us use Madison in the shoot and really saving my bacon. I know some of the images of you and Madison together are beautiful
Plus a hugh big extrodinary thanks to Bindi for being a true friend and stepping into the breach with an extra car for shifting all the items in a huge military manouver
Despite a few minor hiccups, the 4 year old model taking ill the night before at 10pm didn't have a 4 year old for shoot, rapidly replaced with the help of twitter and Madisons wonderful Mum @SarahBySarah at approx 10.15
Loss of my assistant due to car breaking down. and a couple of other minor hiccups. I think that all in all the shoot went amazingly well. I don't think you all realise just how fantastic you all were and how much you all achieved over the last couple of weeks, and especially how much you acheived on Sunday.
Sunday was a bit like having 6 weddings in one day, you all excelled yourselves and Im really proud to say that I have worked with all of you. I would happily recomend each and everyone of you to any of my clients,
Give yourselves a huge pat on the back
I feel a bit like the Bride at the time I knew more or less where everyone was and what they were doing. But I now can't remember my own name LOL
Thank you, Thank You, Thank You
Keep an eye on this space amazing photos coming soon
