OK, so I’m so bloomin’ impatient. My sleeve tattoo technically isn’t finished yet (I’ve got another 4 hours or so to go in 4 weeks time – I’m adding some more colour to the background and some more cupcakes and diamonds – yum) but I’ve waited 2 weeks already to share these pictures and I can’t do it anymore!
At my last session at the amazing Blood Brothers Tattoo Studios in Holloway Rd, London, photographer Al Overdrive offered to pop down and take a few photographs of me in pain/being brave/ getting inked. Al won Tattoo Photographer of the Year Skin Deep , Tattoo Master , Rock Sound and Terrorizer as well as shooting some pretty damn cool alternative weddings .
So while tattooist Mike Harris (I love him) went to work on me (so to speak!) Al snapped away. Aren’t these shots great? I’d do have to say it wasn’t the most fun photo shoot I’ve ever done (ouchy) but the results are a great little memento to have. My facial expressions are priceless. I seem to go from pained smile to manic grin to an “I’ve had enough now thank you” look rather quickly!
Stay tuned for more in about 4 weeks when I have the final touches done…and I’ll have some even more exciting photographs to share with you then…and not just of me. Eeeek!
Huge thanks to Al for taking the time to come and take these photographs for me and to Mike (of course) for the tattoo awesomeness – roll on part 3!

This session is way to awesome! When I opened the initial email from photographer Stephanie, I gasped. "Is that the real Dolly Parton?!"
"It sure is," came the response, "My lovely friend Rebecca was married last month in Gatlinburg, TN. Before her wedding, we did a very special photoshoot with her Aunt Dolly at a family home in Sevierville. Since Dolly is not only Rebecca’s aunt, but also her godmother, Rebecca had the idea to do a shoot where Dolly acts as her fairy godmother, who has come to get her ready for her big day. Here is the story for you to enjoy!"

It's been such an exciting week, not least of all because the photos of you lot with your Rock n Roll Bride magazines have been coming in thick and fast!

Keep your photos coming in, I'll share some more of them over the coming weeks. Here are some of my favourites from the last 7 days...

A Sunday Kind of Love ~ Julia Boggio

May 2, 2010
Behold - a new feature! From the various emails, tweets comments I've received over the last few months I've come to the conclusion that you love regular posts - in particular Thursday Treats and I love writing them so I thought I'd try to do a few more...
I was lucky enough to be invited to Julia Boggio's grand studio opening (full report and exclusive piccies coming soon!) on Thursday and after much schmoozing with the glitterati of the British wedding industry I came to realise that I know so many amazing, talented and generally fabulous people here and all over the world. My plan is that every Sunday I'm going to share with you someone who's been particularly fabulous to me that week or someone who's work has blown me away. It's my way of saying 'I heart you' as well as hopefully letting you know about some people you might not have heard of before. I hope you can put them all to good use in your own weddings. I also hope this feature will be a popular one as I know a lot of awesome people and I'd like to be able to share them all with you!
