Happy February! Today, I get to introduce you to Marry Me Ink’s latest lovely supplier – The wonderful Anna Pumer Photography!

I’m Anna Pumer, a quirky, fun, whimsical wedding photographer based in Brighton, UK – but I shoot weddings all around the world. With me, you can forget about awkward posed photos and forced smiles. Your wedding is about laughing so hard you spit your drink out, kicking your shoes off to dance wildly to the band, and everyone having a damned good time. And my job is to capture it all as it happens.

I’m inspired by every couple I work with, and I shoot for their personalities, capturing who they are and what they’re all about. People with tattoos tend to be quite creative and I’ve found their weddings to be fun, laid back and a little bit crazy all rolled into one! (I don’t have any tattoos – I’m not good with pain! But I love looking at the pieces of art people have on their bodies – and I especially love photographing them)

Back in November, Rob and myself had the chance to stay in the gorgeous country house that is Ox Pasture Country House & Hotel in Scarborough and I just had to share our weekend with you!

On arrival, we were greeted with the beautiful greenery and scenery (Idyllic for a garden wedding) and also other couples who were staying along with their furry friends!

One thing I absolutely loved about Ox Pasture Hall was how welcoming the staff were and how easily they were to accommodate everybody. There were families and couples with their dogs who were able to enjoy the hotel and extensive menu and then there was me, the dairy intolerant who is picky about what she eats. 

How easily it was for them to accommodate my allergy was one of the best things for me.. This included dairy-free afternoon tea!

MMI_3580Seriously – I think I ate and drank my weight in scones and cups of tea!

After our scrumptious afternoon tea – we were shown to our room (The honeymoon/bridal suite). This came with a large lounge area with great views of the gardens, and HUGE bed (I promise I didn’t jump all over it) and a lovely bathroom for a big bath of bubbles! Continue reading →

Rock ‘n Race – A Whiskey,Smoke and Tattoo Filled Inspiration Shoot

I absolutely LOVED this shoot when photographer Leon of Flier! sent this over. The words whiskey, tattoos and Dalmatians had my full attention! (Seriously – DALMATIANS!)

The styling of the shoot looks so dramatic against against the white walls of the warehouse, it’s too hard to pick my favourite bits – Though I do love the table dressing with the taxidermy! I had the chance to speak to Leon of Flier! about the idea behind the Rock ‘n Race shoot.

During a brainstorm session it became clear: Let’s create an non-standard wedding shoot, awesome and really out-of-the-box. To present a shoot to show wedding couples that everything and anything is possible. A shoot inspired by the tattoos of the outstanding bride and her groom. Rough but with a classy look… So we did!

I got to work with some of the best professional suppliers in the wedding industry. This was important, because with a theme that is so outspoken, it’s necessary that everything fits perfectly together. We found the perfect location – A great wedding venue with several industrial, rough and ‘rock and roll’ spaces. They also have a kart-track in the house! We created this shoot ‘Rock ’n Race’ with awesome styling inspired by the colors black, white, red and gold and connected them with the words Rock, Tattoo, Whiskey, Cigars, Smoke, Roses, Lace, Kart-Track and Dalmatians!
