Kat

January 5, 2012

Husband and wife team Jaimi & Adrian hail from South Africa and are really pushing the alternative wedding market forward in their country. After styling and shooting a number of rockin' photo shoots and weddings (which I've been lucky enough to feature here and here) the couple decided to take their vision one step further and put together an alternative bridal fashion show as part of a larger wedding fair at Tala Private Game Reserve.

A Portland Glam Goth Grunge Shoot: Carmen & Solomon

Kat

December 15, 2011

This photo shoot and film landed on my desk a few weeks ago and I was immediately intrigued. I recognised the 'groom' as being Solomon Trimble, whole played a warewolf in the first Twilight movie and wanted to know more about the ideas behind this styled shoot. Real life couple Carmen & Solomon modeled for this glam/goth/grunge inspired project.

Strange Spirits in the Mist: A Lithuanian Styled Shoot

Kat

December 14, 2011

When I first looked through this shoot by Lithuanian photographer Saulės Pieva I was honestly a bit chilled. It's definitely got that creepy-spooky vibe going on. "The shoot was about mist and about the strange spirits who are protecting dying nature," Saulės told me. " It's about the mystery of the rain, the forest, little creatures and secret life of nature spirits."

The second Photography Farm (remember the first one which I took part in?) took place earlier this month. The subject was off-camera flash and organiser Lisa Devlin invited Adam Bronkhorst of Viva Photography, an expert in the field, to teach the latest 'farmers' all about the techniques.

‘Lola the Bird’: An Art Deco Photo Shoot

Kat

November 23, 2011

This beautiful shoot was set up by headpiece designer Natasha Jane to promote her amazing 'Lola the Bird' headpiece (I've seen it in real life and it is an amazing piece, I'd love to see a real Rock n Roll Bride wearing it!) The shoot took place at the UK's oldest cinema, Birmingham's Electric Cinema, which has been open for over 100 years. The art deco cinema is even available to hire for weddings so it really was the perfect venue to show off this new wedding collection.

A Budget-Friendly Autumnal Themed Couple Shoot: Rob & Jayne

Kat

November 17, 2011

Rob & Jayne used a mix of high street and vintage items for their shoot with Don from The Mottleys. I love how these images show that you really don't need to spend a fortune on props and designer outfits to look beautiful in your wedding portraits.

Agnese & Iveta's DIY shoot was set up with the help of Jaye from Tux & Tales Photography. Jaye has been doing a DIY inspiration shoot series, to show brides that they don't have to spend a fortune to have a beautiful wedding (I featured one of her first ones here).

A 1990’s Themed Styled Shoot

Kat

October 4, 2011

Being a child during the 90's (yep I rocked a shell suit and everything) I have an instant affinity to this styled shoot put together by photographer Chelsea Nicole and stylist Brit Bertino. However I'm pleased to report that there's not a troll doll in sight..

A Hippy, Eco & Vintage Styled Shoot

Kat

August 3, 2011

This beautiful shoot with an eco hippy vibe tugs at my heart strings. Isn't it just beautiful!? I die over the summery details - the coloured glass, the cute props (owls for the win!), the yummy confectionery and the stunning florals. Photographer Nikita Gross used digital, Holga and Polaroid photography to capture the whimsical and retro vibe of these shoot...and I'd say she's done that perfectly! "We used tons of yellows and greens to keep with the natural vibe," she explains. "All of the decor was found at local thrift stores. Earlier this year myself and Jen Pritchard of Your Wedding by Jen created Cincinnati's first Alternative wedding Expo, Love+Bash. This is one of the table concepts from the show."

A Recycled Wedding Fashion Shoot at Paramount Ranch

Kat

August 3, 2011

"The concept of this photo shoot was 'eco friendly + recycled wedding fashion for modern brides'," photographer Yuna Leonard writes. " Both of the dresses and the boots in this set were found at American Vintage store on Melrose, Los Angeles. I love that store!! I was in love with the ideas of recycling and reusing wedding fashion from days gone by - maybe from brides who were in your Mother's or Grandmother's generations. The dresses I bought were also very inexpensive { from $70 - $ 100. The boots were $50.} We fused this style with an idea for outdoor / backyard styled reception fashion as well. The mixed style of vintage + bohemian + western totally got me this time! Hope you enjoy it!"

A Vintage Hen Do Inspiration Shoot

Kat

June 20, 2011

I wanted to start this week with something not all together bridal, but a shoot that you can certainly take inspiration from. I like to think of these vintage beauties as girls-on-tour...maybe on a hen do, or on their way to a beautiful bridal shower....but a classy, and non trashing one of course!

Stephanie Wolff’s 2011 Wedding Dress Collection by Anissa Rahali Photographie

Kat

June 2, 2011

This stunning shoot was set up to promote the launch of Stephanie Wolff newest range of wedding dresses and Tinker Field Mouse's newest jewellery designs in Paris. Quite apart from swooning my ass off over these gowns, I'm pretty much smitten with photographer Anissa Rahail's unusual but perfectly placed use of colour.

“Une Mariée Tsigane” (A Gypsy Wedding) Styled Shoot

Kat

May 31, 2011

Burlesque performer Roxy Rose was the model for this wonderful gypsy bride (and no we're not talking a 'big fat gypsy wedding' style gypsy bride, think more traditional!) for a styled shoot, the concept of which was dreamt up by Italian photographer Cinzia Bruschini. She explained,

Alison’s Alice in Wonderland Trash the Dress

Kat

May 27, 2011

"My inspiration for this shoot came from the bride her name is Alison and she has a pet bunny as well as a cupcake tattoo on her wrist," photographer Tab McCausland told me. "So when I started to plan doing my first trash the dress photography class I didn't want it to be just a boring setting. Sooooo we went all out cake, hats, tea pots, a little tuxedo for the bunny, little caterpillar, table set up the works! I think the theme was perfect for the bride and since she had pink and purple hair already it just all came together nicely."

“Let Them Eat Cake” – A Marie Antoinette Inspiration Shoot

Kat

May 24, 2011

Ever since my shoot in Paris I've had a bit of a 'thing' for anything Marie Antoinette - the fashion, the hair, the make up - it pretty much makes me go all giddy inside. So when this shoot landed on my desk last week I didn't hesitate to email photographer Beth right back to say yes to sharing them as soon a possible.

A Woodland Bridal Shoot

Kat

May 23, 2011

This morning's shoot was set up by photographers We Heart Pictures to showcase the types of brides they want to shoot. "Hector and I fly to Jersey often for client meetings as we shoot weddings in the Channel Islands," photographer Charlie told me. "I took the opportunity to make the most of our trip and the stunning location and heckled people into getting up at 8am on Easter Sunday to join us in St Catherine’s Woods. We wanted it to be fun so packed a picnic, chandelier, flags, bunting, balloons, bubbles, masks, several meters of fabric and threw in a couple of wedding dresses as you do!"

A Country Barn Glam Styled Shoot

Kat

May 18, 2011

"Always in search of new ideas and cool, unique locations with a story, I was thrilled to explore one of the very last working farms in Chelsea, Quebec, Canada for my inspiration shoot," writes photographer Anne-Marie Bouchard. "I wanted character and grit for a session that would showcase something a bit different with an edge to inspire the modern Rock n Roll Bride. The work horses were a perfect fit to the true natural, rustic feel and a tattooed bride in a soft flowing Vera Wang gown with wild dark flowers just felt so right, opposites do attract after all!"

A Nashville Rockstar Styled Shoot

Kat

May 10, 2011

"It's well known that Nashville's cup runneth over with amazing musicians, songwriters, and performers," wrote Kate of Wedding 101, a wedding planning studio located in The Factory at Franklin. "We wanted to pay homage to a classic rock star wedding. Our inspiration for this shoot, captured by the oh-so-talented Joe Hendricks Photography, began with a Flowers That Rock bouquet, made entirely of guitar picks and strings."
