Although Suzanne & Eric are getting married in Hong Kong, they chose to have their engagement session in London surrounded by the iconic landmarks of the city. Oh and how beyond gorgeous is Suzanne's dress by the way?! Thanks to Craig & Chanelle for sharing this gorgeous session Credit: Segerius Bruce Photography

Rock On – The Engagements

Kat

July 24, 2009

I was forwarded Danielle & Jerry's wedding by the lovely Amanda of Vintage Glam. I saw it and I loved it. I also discovered their rocking engagement session so I had to feature these first. Danielle's cute little hair bow, their awesome tattoos (do I sound like a broken record sometimes?) and the almost spooky fun fair location - I love it all. Stand by for the wedding, complete with a Groomsman with a mohawk and a Bride in a black wedding dress.

I Tried To Do Handstands For You…

If you would have told me six months ago that I'd be getting submissions saying 'I shot this session with Rock n Roll Bride in mind' I would have said you were totally nuts. In fact I still think you're a bit nuts but I guess that's beside the point. Keira & Dan had a super cute session with Studio Nouveau. The vintage camera, the bright blue wall, the awesome trilby hat - yes I love it all. You've gotta watch the slideshow as well because I just can't get enough of this wonderful stuff. Thanks to Lara & Kate of Studio Nouveau for not only thinking of me, but for being super duper adorable. Credit: Studio Nouveau

Can I Title A Post…Trout?!

Kat

July 20, 2009

Looks like Ella & Ben had a great time during their engagement session with Razvan of Razvan Photography. The session took place in a teeny tiny town called Kalkaska which is defined as a 'trout town' due to the huge trout festival that happens there every year - who knew?! Thanks to Razvan for sharing these session with me and I look forward to seeing their DIY laden wedding after it happens in August. Credit: Razvan Photography

Las Vegas – Post Apocalyptic Stylee

Kat

July 20, 2009

What would happen if we woke up tomorrow and there had been some kind of nuclear crisis over night? Hell, drive (or in my case fly) out to Vegas and enjoy the new scenery of course! Mindy and Scott have actually been married for 6 years, but unhappy with their wedding photographs they decided to seek the help of photographer team Nick Adams to give them a shoot they'll love forever.

All The Fun Of The Fair

Is today the day of cute engagements or what?! This candy coloured shoot took place in a fun fair - what could be sweeter than a fun fair plus a big stick of candy floss and multi coloured walls to pose against? As always, thanks to Lisa for sharing. Credit: Ophelia Photography

Cuteness Personified

Jerriann & Sean are almost too freakin' adorable to bear, and their engagements are just too cute! Her dress, his tats, the faux photo frame thingy - cuteness personified Mucho thanks to new photographer on the block, Shannon Smith for choosing Rock n Roll Bride to showcase her talent.

Divorce? Bankruptcy? ASS!?

Jenna & Steve's engagements have completely tickled me and I'm pretty sure you'll be able to figure out why. DIVORCE•BANKRUPTCY - doesn't scream spring time joy to me, and the ASS? well ass is just a funny word - and look,he's squeezing her ass! Juvenile, moi? Credit: Bobbi + Mike

An Eye Deal Match

Kat

July 14, 2009

Avory & Corey had some pretty dramatic engagements to fit in with their pretty epic style. Photographer Tiffanie used a 'light painting' technique to achieve these stunning results. The couple are a crafty pair who make their own glass jewellery and so it's obvious that such a creative couple deserve a pretty creative shoot right? If you wanted to buy some pieces by Avory & Corey then check out their company Eye Deal Glass. Credit: Tiffanie Weaver Photography

This is such a cool idea. Dunston Todd shot Thayne & Megan Turley though a cut out of their initials. Love it! ps you have approximately 4 hours to get your votes in for the Tinywater contest. I will be attempting the mammoth task of counting all the votes and announcing the winners tomorrow..eeeek! Credit: Dunston Todd

1950’s Fare

Kat

July 9, 2009

Tara & Tom's rock 'n roll 1950's styleee engagements are just awesome! The records, the old plane, the balloons... Photographer Sarah expressed concern to me that I'd featured some similar images recently, so I immediately pointed her in the direction of this post. I have much love for these, thanks for sharing Sarah! Credit: Labour Of Love Photography

Spooky & Dark

Kat

July 9, 2009

Filipino photographer Jeffroger Kho sent me these stunning engagements which perfectly reflect his 'wild, crazy, and downright addictive' style. These are kinda spooky and dark but I seriously love them (yes even the creepy doll) Check it out... The client Mark and Johanna are photographers and very artistic individuals. You can check out their site here as well Happy Garaje Graphic Design and Illustration. Their style is really dark, desaturated, and textured. And I am happy that I was able to capture that and also reflect the clients style. The outfits are from the clients own wardrobe. They pretty much have everything already. They collect a lot of old stuff as well so it quite reflects much of their personality. I believe that this set is very Rock n Roll because it's different, downright crazy, non-conventional, and most importantly it reflects much of the personality of the client and not just a random theme just for the sake of having a theme. Thanks Jeffroger!

Real Rockers

Kat

July 6, 2009

So I was going to wait until tomorrow to share these, but I think I can't actually wait. I received an excitable email from photographer (and sister of Matt, the Groom to be) Joy Wilson, telling me all about how great her bro is (aww) and what talented musicians both he and his fiance Fran are. Fran even wrote a song that was used in the show 'The Biggest Loser' recently (it's shown during the daytime here in the UK and I have to admit to being slightly addicted to it on my days off work!) Thanks Joy!

Jailhouse Rock

Kat

July 4, 2009

Jana & Gerry's engagements kicked it. They had them in Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia... What makes us a rock 'n' roll couple? Well, we met backstage. Gerry has played in local Philly bands for years and we were introduced by his cousin. Being an attorney, I've been known to get into a shouting match (or two) with a record label over royalties for my man. Besides that, we're having one of Philly's best rock DJs do our wedding and we're having it at the Mutter Museum - because if you can't have a wedding onstage, medical oddities are a close second.

Sweet As Cherry Pie

Kat

July 3, 2009

This sugary sweet engagement session is full of fun and frolics and I have been dying to get these up all day. Bridget and Dan chose Balboa Island for their shoot as they will be getting married there in September at her grandparents house. The candy bouquet was quickly put together by the photographer, Crissy after she saw them in cute little bunches at a local shop, and the stick on moustaches were bought on Etsy. Thanks to Crissy for sharing these sweet as cherry pie shots with me!

Artistic

Kat

July 1, 2009

This fun, quirky, laid back engagement session perfectly reflects the couple in it. With a pair of artists as subjects - Kelsey, an art historian & Stephan, a painter - what other sort of engagement session would you expect than one like this? An artistic, calm and serene vision that's what these are. I like them an awful lot. Photographer Emily Garrick seriously rocked this session - thanks so much for sharing!
