Happy Valentines Day! How are you spending time with your loved one today? Whilst love is all around today, I thought I’d share this fun infographic from Simply Bridal about kissing. Did you know that kissing helps your brain release calming neurotransmitters?

There’s nothing more special than the first kiss as a newly married couple. Whether you’re going for a quick brush of the lips or going all in (Like my friends Dan & Rach did in the image above). Make it special!

The beginning of the shoot starts of all cute in a meadow and then turns quite sinister.. You’re going to have to carry on through the photos if you want to see the end result.

A DIY, Psychobilly Wedding With 1000 Paper Flowers – Steph & Adam

Adam and I met through mutual friends who were looking to form a Psychobilly band. Adam played double bass and I sang so we both joined. Although the band was together for several months before we started dating we got along well from the start. It was a long walk up a hill back to Adams house and he wasn’t keen to lug his double bass on his back. Luckily I was the only person in the band with a car big enough to fit the bass in- so naturally I offered to take him to and from practice.
