I fancied starting off the week with a bit of non-wedding gorgeousness. I'm sure you'll forgive me when you lay your eyes on these little beauties. Pomegranates, gorgeous orchard, stunning model, cute doggie and a generally retro feel make these worth the deviation. Thanks to the ever lovely Megan for sharing the love with these Credit: Megan Welker PhotographyRead more...

Tinywater are freaking awesome. I swear...I actually love them and their work a little bit more than what could be contrived as normal. Check these out, if you don't love these...well I then I don't know what to say...YUMMY! There are a lot more images from this workshop on their blog. Go check them out (here, here and here)...seriously...like now. As always Caroline & Dan, you are fabulous and you blow me away! Credit: Tinywater PhotographyRead more...

Oh my God this shoot is awesome...it's good for the soul to take a break from wedding overload once in a while and Kelly Moore has given me the perfect excuse to do so. As always, thanks to Kelly for sharing these and bringing a colourful splash to my dayRead more...

So I did some hunting around to find out the true story of the fabulous 'Woodstock Wedding' that I blogged a few days ago. Turns out it was a 'fake' wedding and was set up as an editorial photoshoot for French magazine Jalouse...and the Bride & Groom - wait for it - were actually Mark Ronson and his girlfriend Josephine de la Baume! Don't be too sad though as I have found more photos and a super kitch, uber retro feeling behind the scenes video!Read more...

So these aren't bridal at all but I totally wish they were - please someone be inspired and do something like this for a bridal shoot, how kick ass would that be?! The model's hat, necklace and dress are all from Frocky Jack Morgan. Thanks to Alica & Kenneth for sharing. MWAH! Credit: Vorpal ImagesRead more...

My friend David McNeil took a trip to Brighton with TV Presenter Jules who needed some new shots for her portfolio. Poles apart from the usual, boring head shots David and Jules got seriously down n dirty to create some amazing results! As soon as I saw these I know I'd have to share, these could be straight out of a Vogue fashion shoot no problem! Credit: David McNeilRead more...

Today I am feeling ever so inspired by beautiful clothing and gorgeous photography. These amazingly simple but perfect images come from Hannah + Landon and make me feel like I need to get my camera out and photograph something beautiful today. Thank you Miss Hannah. I love your style girl. Credit: Hannah + LandonRead 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!

This is something a little different for me to post but when I saw Rosie Parsons' last few 'detail shoots' I fell in love! The Bristol - based photographer has a great relationship with some fantastic local vendors, from Clara Bows who rents and sells gorgeous vintage crockery, to local florists Bella & Fifi with whom Rosie spend the day dashing around the city delivering blooms in an adorable eco-chic piaggio. Finally I had to share some photographs from Gilly Woo, a good friend of Rosies' 30th birthday a few weeks ago. The birthday girl is also a ridiculously talented dress maker and so not only are the images pretty damn stunning but how retro chic gorgeous is the her sparkly gold vintage glam dress?

Is is possible to have an addiction to a set of photographers? Because I definitely have a really intense Tinywater habit. Every day I need to get my fix...and it feels gooooood. One day I will travel to Sacramento and track down Caroline & Daniel as I hold them personally responsible for my infatuation. Credit: TinywaterRead more...

It's nice to break away from all the weddingness sometimes and just spend some time enjoying some non wedding inspiration and Taylor's senior portraits fall smack bang into this category. I'm sure it's pretty obvious why I love these - the colours, the contrast and her gorgeous retro rockabilly style - she has got that pin up thing down to a tee with her fluttering eyelashes and her matt, crimson lips. Can you believe this gal is only 18!? ps I ♥ that egg chair a little too much! Credit: Tinywater PhotographyRead more...

Rock n Roll Bride sponsor Michelle of Oeil Photography sent me an exclusive peek at her newest photographic creation. A lucid ballet of light, colour and fabulous fashion, these shots just make me want to dress up in a bright yellow 'cage' dress and get my pose on! Models Rene, Lauren (who actually made the yellow cage) and Tara (of Trigger Happy Photo) seriously rocked this shoot - stepping away from any fancy frou frou weddingness in favour of playing along in their very own circus act of colour, experimentation and edgy fashion.Read more...

I am all about the swooning this (slightly) sunny Saturday morning. I love the idea of using the vintage mirror in so many different but equally gorgeous ways. Credit: Red Leaf StudiosRead more...

I woke up today feeling like I didn't want to get out of bed. At all. However I dragged my sorry self out pf my pit and boy am I glad I did. I swear, I think the stuff I have to share today may be by favourites ever. I have had some absolutely phenomenal bridal shoots and weddings land in my inbox overnight. Think I'm exaggerating? Well just check out this photo shoot sent exclusively to meeee. All the dresses were supplied by White Orchid Brides. If you're in the Knoxville area methinks you need to check these bad boys out. Erm..hello beautiful! Tara and Colleen you literally rock my world...Read more...
