So here they are – FINALLY! I’ve been SOOOOO excited about sharing this shoot with you!

It all started out with a little message from Andrea Ellison Photography with regards to a wedding she’s recently done featuring a lovely tattooed bride (To be coming up on the blog soon!) as to if I could use her images.. More messages were exchanged and I was asked if I ever wanted to do a shoot for the Marry Me Ink site – She’s be up for doing so.

As you know – I was SO up for that! Details were exchanged and I was informed that we’d also be joined by Claire Penn Photography, Maria Bentley of Studio 1208 AND Victoria Thomas Make Up (The most fantastic/crazy/pink haired lady you ever did see!)

HA! Isn’t Victoria just fantastical?! After setting a date of when – it was a case of what themes, where the hell to get a dress and where to do all the shots. All being Northern lasses, Manchester was our central point and their Northern Quarter is TOO funky not to shoot in! Being a HUGE Afflecks Palace advocate, where better for me to parade around in a dress, no?!!

I didn’t need to look far for a dress – Kate Youdale of The Party Frock kindly offered to make me a dress.. Yes, that’s right – MAKE!! LOTS of tulle, in many colours – Ivory, royal blue & emerald green!

The epic spotty shoes are my own – Irregular Choice of course! As for hair accessories.. Anissa Lee offered to give her helping hand in providing some epic hair pieces, including a massive bow and a cute top hat! The sugar skull fascinator was supplied the wonderful Diablo Jo’s Rockabilly Accessories (which I may add – they have been kind enough to let me keep!). The gorgeous skully nesting doll necklace & ring were provided by the very talented Dolly Cool.
I seriously cannot thank everyone enough for all of their time and effort into making these items and letting us use them for the shoot.
