Laurel Stratford Hair Stylist

This was an incredible day, I can’t wait to see how Jess Burges (Exposure Photographics) captured it all.

The details were outstanding, the flowers to die for, not to mention Ana’s dress made by the incredible Sharon Burges.

I had a blast doing Ana and her three bridesmaid’s hair. So cool.

Samantha Bulh was on make up…i love your work Sammy.

And the Groom was in his family tartan Kilt, awesome.

Ana wanted to wear a halo (of flowers) my goodness it was truely amazing, way to go Cherry Blossom.

I have to say this was a stand day, everything so different…I just loved it all.

Thanks for including ladies.

Again these are some of my instagrams

I had a very busy day last Friday in Omapere.

I met up with Amanda and her four wonderful bridesmaids, there for Amanda’s wedding.

Traveling from London and Auckland for this very special day.

Lynnette Watson was doing make up, which as ever was beautiful.

These women were gorgeous. Amanda’s dress was sublime.

Since winning the ‘Patrick Cameron Photographic Challenge 2012’, I have been looking forward to receiving the BIG part of my prize.

Namely spending 4 hours training one on one with Patrick and the rest of the afternoon with him and a few others lunching.

Wow, what an experience.

I learnt 5 major styles and them others thown in as we progressed throughout our time.

Training with Patrick is so great, as he works step by step. So I learnt a style from it’s foundation up.

Now I’ll be able to adapt these styles as I wish for my own clients.

Infact since last Monday I have used what I learnt every day.

Yes, I’ve had two weddings, two wedding trials and two friend going to a wedding…full on, but oh so good.

check out my styles.
