Tattoos, Rock, Leather & Lace – A French Riviera Inspiration Shoot

Posted on January 4, 2016 | 1 comment

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Who got engaged over the holidays and midnight celebrations this weekend? Today I get to bring you a gorgeous tattooed inspiration shoot all the way from the French Riviera from Doctib Photo who also got inspiration for their shoot from Marry Me Ink which is awesome!

For this inspiration wedding photoshoot, we wanted something that mixes nature, including tattoos and flowers, and Rock culture (custom dress, tags, motorbike, and rock concert).

We wanted also to have an amazing place, we found this abandoned church close to Frejus and fell in love with the place. The church has burned in the 70s and was never been repaired. This church is in the middle of the nature, surrounded with pin trees, on the top of a mountain – Magic!

For the bride, dress designer Marynea wanted something different from a normal dress, she created a two-parts dress, with 2 tops. For the ceremony – a black crop top, made of French lace, sensual and very feminine. For the party she wanted something fun – she used a Jack Daniel’s t-shirt and made a backless top, that revealed the tattoos of the bride.

A Blissful, Stylish Garden Party Wedding – Janelle & Nick

Posted on August 26, 2015 | Comments Off

Tattooed bride Janelle contacted me via the Marry Me Ink Instagram with the above picture of her and new husband Nick. Aren’t they glorious? They were married at the stunning Green Gables Wedding Estate with wonderful images from Kristel Collins Photography.

We met at a high school football game, I believe it was homecoming game. We remained friends for about two years until Nick got some liquid courage and asked me out at Hooters! (Romantic right!) I drove him home that night and he called me the next morning to make sure he remembered correctly. That was 7 years ago and we have been inseparable ever since.

We wanted to make sure our taste and style was represented in our music choices. During the ceremony Nick walked out to ‘Feeling Alright by Rebelution’ and our first dance was ‘Is This Love’ by Bob Marley. I also asked our DJ if he could do a reggae style cocktail hour, which he pulled off perfectly. Our cocktail hour consisted of music by the Dirty Heads, Bob Marley, Iration, SOJA etc. It was the first time I had ever heard the Dirty Heads played at a wedding, but it was definitely us! We also wanted to include our sweet Lola in our wedding. It was definitely a pain to have her be a part of our ceremony but we wouldn’t have wanted it any other way!
