The gorgeous Francesca.
I had touched base with Photographer Tracey Stevens, who I met through mutual friends. She had been photographing Francesca for a number of years and this was the first time she asked if she wanted hair and make up done. Yes please was the answer.
So Mua Samantha Bulh and I kept it soft and simple. Francesca was very happy.
Love these images

As time passes I often e-mail my past Brides and ask for a few of their favourite images from their special day.
Valeria sent me these. She was so beautiful and delicate.

The gorgeous Bride
Wedding days are often months & years in the planning. When we get finally get to day for the Bride it’s an early rise n shine with the day all about getting ready.
Sounds a bit crazy I know. Though I bet you’ve heard it often muttered the question of ‘how can it take so long’ by Fathers and Grooms alike.
Those of you who are already married will know hair & make up for weddings are not the normal ‘five minutes wonder’ we produce on any given day.
So with that MUA Samantha Nicholls & myself arrived in Paihia at 6am to start getting Danielle and her five Bridesmaids ready for her wedding.
A fabulous group of girls who knew each other from University days.

Inga & her man were travelling NZ and decided to get married here before heading back to Slavakia.
A very intimate wedding with themselves and their witnesses who they had met during their travels
Here are a couple of their images.

What can I say, these two were just lovely to meet and work with.
I met both Yondette & June in March 2016 when they were doing a ‘meet & greet’ for their big day January 2017. They were over from Melbourne to get their wedding plans underway.
The next time we were meeting was late on a Friday night in November 2016 for Yondette’s wedding hair trial. She had seen a couple of images that looked okay but really had few ideas of what would be her best option. She had super fine hair and wanted something with volume. So I got to work prepping h
er hair and did a quick clipping scenario to see if we liked one option. Then onto the bigger job of option two.
Option two it was to be.
January rolled around with speed and it was at last their day. Samantha Nicholls – make up artist & I joined the day bright and early at The Duke of Marlborough. We were met by Yondette & photographers ‘Daisy & the Duke’, as well as ‘Twelve08studios’ videographers both from Brisbane.
Ida Birch was celebrant. Yondette’s Mum did flowers. They married on the family property & had a huge few days of celebrations.
I just loved it seeing their joy.
