A bit hot under the collar

That's for all you guy readers, I'm guessing ;)

This is Zoe, whom came for a "Welcome to Wonderland" boudoir session.
Tightly enveloped in a corset with the loosest curls, Zoe is every inch elegant.

She arrived as gorgeous as gorgeous can be.  And by the time Courtney had finished with her, she was looking hawt!

If you want to own images similar to these, you are welcome to try one of our many corsets we have here (where I get the pleasure of pulling the ties as tight as possible - inserts evil laugh!)

Cake Smash

The cutest baby, the cutest cake and props (made by the mother of the baby) and then waiting for the fun to happen - happened today. 

Cake Smashing has been around for quite some time.  I never thought to do them; secretly,  I think I was scared of the mess.  But, you know, I have a wipe clean floor and a sink in the studio with hot water and towels.....what could go wrong?

Here he is, before he realised that the gorgeous cake before him was all his

Then in he went.....

And he shovelled a handful in his mush

He attacked it some more - much more

Ad realised that he could draw with it

But the ickyness started to set in - look at his "I've had enough" face!

Mum, is my face messy enough?

Yes, dear - it is.....and so is half the studio........!

Cake Smash's are available now for £40.  It includes the session and a cake.  Take £10 away if you provide your own cake.  You just then buy your images separately.

And finally....CARDS!  YAY.  I had a lovely wind down session tonight after a stressful few days.  I love stationery and air mail inspired things.

 

And this doggy print was found on gift wrap.  OF COURSE I had to have it.  

And also make a card with a few snippets.

And that was my colourful and cakeful day.

Northern Sugar

A few weeks back, I did a band shoot with a bunch of lads from Wigan.  Northern Sugar self pen their own material and have a great indie sound.

And now they have just released their first music video.  This track is like a mix of The Rolling Stones and The Who.............Care to watch?

Go and leave them some love

They have a facebook page HERE, too

More beautiful transformations

Its difficult to be faced with the notion that I ought to specialise in one genre of photography.  I don't want to, I like it all.  Well, weddings are my least favourite.  I don't mind doing them for people through word of mouth but I have to really want to do it.

The Wonderland makeovers that I have been doing of late are actually something I could pigeon-hole myself into.  Its so lovely to see a girl walk in the studio - your everyday girl doing her everyday thing, you know?  That is, until we swoosh her up with colour and volumise her flowing locks into a goddess - a vision.....a dream.  I particularly like creating dreamy, floaty frocks for her to wear and feel special in...... to dress up and drift away from the everyday routine.

This is Denise from Today's shoot

And here is some behind-the-scenes footage, on video - enjoy

If I may indulge, this image happens to be my favorite ever from my Wonderland Makeovers of late - no need for big grins or smiles.  Just natural beauty with striking features and a bit of frou frou.

Happy Friday!

A card for the boys

I'm such a girl when it comes to cards and I struggle hugely with men's and boys cards. In fact, if I am truthful, I always buy cards for the men in our family.  **shock horror**

Anyway, As I was chatting to a pal on the phone tonight, I happily made my hands busy making this - at the same time.  The papers are from Basic Grey from about 73645754624 years ago but I like them still.  I can't say that about many patterned papers from yesteryear - some of them are completely hideous.

Have you seen the time?  Its 0330......Ive been up all night making another tulle skirt for yest another Wonderland makeover at the studio.

lightening the mood

Ugh, its been a bit rough round these parts but there is NOTHING like a bit of pink to make your heart sing. 

When I die, I demand to be bound in pink ribbon with a pretty little bow at the end.

As I have barely bought a ton of stash of late, Ive used old findings.  Well, I say old.  Ahem!  That chevron embossing plate is from Diesires at Crafters Companion and the washi tapes are from, erm....don't know.  **awkward**

I feel so much better already. 

What is making your heart sing, these days?

I think Steven Spielbergs need not worry

Ive never shot video footage of people before.  Craft sessions, yes but............people?  Oooooh no!  I needed to get a promo video out there, for my website, and so last week I made one.

The cutting and the pauses and the transitions and adding music took AGES...for a lousy 2 minutes and 22 second video.  But I DID IT!

And here she is.  Hope you like it..... the music is delicious.

Hope you can come by soon!
