That Bride/That Wife/That Photographer Extraordinaire

Jenna Cole is one of my best online friends. I met her what feels like a lifetime ago when we were both planning our weddings, through her blog That Bride.  Once she got married she became That Wife and now is even a photographer herself!  I have been dying for share some of her work with you for a while but have definitely been waiting for the best rock n roll style photo shoot…and I think I’ve got it don’t you?
Aviators, a cigar, birdcage veil, DIY wheat bouquet, tattoo…you name it this shoot has got it (even a tarantula for crying out loud – click here for that, I refuse to put a taruntulas on here! <shudder>)

Fake And Fashioned

When Fox & Freddy (seriously, how rock n roll can you get!?) got married they felt their photographs really didn’t represent who they really were. So 6 years down the line their friend and photographer Joy Wilson offered to do a super cool fake wedding shoot for them so they could have all the funk they deserved! Joy even went so far as to head off to a fabric store and fashion Fox’s ridiculously gorgeous dress using a plethora of stunningly coloured tulle’s and a lot of safety pins – she also made the one of a kind bouquet…multi talented you might say!

These are spectacular…and oh my God I want that dress!

Handmade

Wow. This has got to be one of my favourite DIY/handmade weddings ever…the Bride even made her dress! What a gorgeous, homely, hilarious, personal and rustic feel this beautiful barn wedding has. I have never seen so many genuinely happy people. It makes me smile.

OK so I went crazy with the amount of photographs I’m adding to this post – but you know, I was actually kinda restrained! Click here for more, including all the preparations…

Thanks Bertie (as always!)  Edit: Remember this engagement shoot? Well I’ve just realised it’s their wedding..no wonder it’s so amazing. This two are too stylish for words.

Just The Two Of Them

Terri & Sebastian eloped in Barcelona, just the two of them plus David McNeil the photographer (click here for the photographs) and Claire McDonnell the make up artist…here are their vows to each other.
What is it with all the videos nearly making me cry today?! I was under the impression my cold shell was impenetrable!

David was also featured on Wedding TV last Saturday and I totally forgot to share the link…go see him talking about his work, in particular Terri & Sebastian’s wedding here (approx 26 minutes in) Plus try to spot the me & husband as models in some of the photographs shown…hint my hair is brown!

The Strangest Damned Gang…

This gorgeous shoot reminds me of a gangster movie..I don’t know why really, but I could totally imagine this couple as Bonnie & Clyde, does that make me weird? I think it’s the hat, the expressions, the glitz, the glamour…all good stuff, not because I could see them robbing a bank!

The strangest damned gang you ever heard of. They’re young. They’re in love. They rob banks
