As trash the dress goes, it doesn't get much better than getting in some water and thrashing about in your gown. Yes, it's been done and we've seen it all before but who cares? You'll have a hell lot of fun and get some awesome photographs to boot! Thanks to the ever so gorgeous Tab for sharing this session. Mwah! Credit: Tab McCauslandRead more...

I've never been to Vegas and I'm not all together convinced I'd like the craziness, but when I see images like these I know it can't be just one big city of sin. According to photographer Maria Mack, Las Vegas doesn't have to be all bright lights, strippers, gambling and bachelor parties. These beautiful, retro shots show Vegas in a much softer light, - one with cute heart signs and quirky vintage touches. Oh yes, this is a Vegas I could get on board with... Thanks to Maria for showing me the diversity of a Las Vegas photo shoot!Read more...

Sometimes a wedding comes along that is so damn fabulous that it's worth the wait for. I was sent an image of the bride trying on her stunning Elizabeth Dye dress by a reader, boy must have been about 6 months ago, and since then I have made it my mission to find more about the wedding, the dress, the girl, the guy and the stunning photography - it's all a bit too delightful for words huh?I am so excited to finally announce that I have the results right here! You are going to be completely gaga over these - I know I am! Ali & Danny were married on the 6th June at Bend, Oregon. The ruffles, the flowers, the cute cute shoes...I just love it all. Who's with me? Credit: Kubota PhotoDesign Inc.Read more...

Happy snoozy Sunday to you all! I have a distinct lack of a day filled with snooze myself as I plan to share some gorgeous and rockin' trash the dress sessions with you (and knowing me probably more!) I'm going to start with the hot shoot sent in by the very lovely Jeffery Chan of I Cherish You, a photographer from Toronto. The location of the shoot is pretty awesome huh? The shoot took place in the abandoned Kodak building which is now apparantly a very popular shoot zone for local photographers. Thanks to Jeffery for sharing these with me!

No wonder Central Park is always in the movies...OK so I totally stole this line from one of the commenters on the photographer's blog post but it pretty much sums up what I wanted to say about this shoot myself! Laura & Bearden had this shoot as an anniversary gift to each other. If you too fell in love in New York then be sure to get your entries in for the fabulous 'We fell in love in NYC' contest. It closes for entries tomorrow so you'd better get a wriggle on! All info is here... MWAH! Credit: Krista PhotographyRead more...

Where has Forty Sixty Photographybeen all my life? Why only now am I being sent this wonderfulness?! Although photographer Chris specialises in music and band images, he is now beginning to branch out into engagements and weddings, as he says ' I love capturing people in the moment, when they let their true emotions shine through.' All I can say is thank goodness and it's about time! Credit: Forty Sixty PhotographyRead more...

Alison & Steve had their wedding at Baldwin School just outside of Philadelphia, a really old but truly stunning location. Not only did they have a folk band to welcome guests to the reception, but to round off the evening they had a local circus group as entertainment! Credit: Ash ImageryRead more...

I have a cocktail induced sore head today so posting may be lighter and/or make no sense today. I am struggling to string a sentence together... This shoot by Kelly Moore kind of made my head hurt even more due to all the brightness but I love it too much not to post. Of course there is no relation to weddings at all within this shoot, but it's so pretty it's worth a mini deviation. Credit: Kelly Moore PhotographyRead more...

So I don't usually post a selection of photographers work, preferring to focus on one wedding, engagement or photo shoot instead of a bit of a mish-mash. However I believe I am able to make an exception for Lara Jade. The twenty year old (yes I know!) fashion photographer from Tamworth, UK is quite frankly so inspiring and talented that she really deserves every single image of hers to be posted. Lara's fashion and editorial style is second to none. Just check out these images and tell me you're not in love with them? Unfortunately with her being so fabulous and all, her work is often stolen and used illegally (and yes I did get permission for this post!) If you fancy hearing more about this then I just found this fab BBC video all about it. Thanks to the gorgeous Lara for working with me on the post, and if you are a photographer or vendor yourself and are interested in being a subject in an 'Under the Spotlight' feature then get in touch for all the info!

Dalton & Abby may have only just started college, but already in love they decided to getengaged. To celebrate they had this gorgeous shoot with the very lovely Shannon Nicole Smith who evidently knows I never say no to shoots with balloons! By the way, have you checked out the fabulous 'New York Love' contest yet? If you're in NY and in L.O.V.E you simply must enter. It's the rules. Credit: SNS PhotographyRead more...
