A big trend for 2020 is dried flowers. Having spent the last few months not working, it was lovely to have my first job back at my friends florist. Emily Robbins has always had the most beautiful shop, but during lockdown she completely updated and restyled her gorgeous shop in Burbage. I have been a…
Tips and advice
Photo restoration
During lockdown, I’ve had the chance to look through my Nan’s old family photographs and do a little photo restoration. I’ve always loved photoshop and practicing changing photographs and now I’ve had more time to play around on it. Restoring photographs is one of my favourite things on Photoshop, putting music on and editing away…..
Trending Now: Rattan and Woven Wedding Decor
As you look through wedding decor inspiration online and in bridal magazines, you may find the same ideas repeated in different ways. Brides love to drape chiffon over their archways and decorate their reception in the same seasonal colour palettes. If you want something unique that adds a touch of earthy materials to your wedding,…
WEDDING INSPIRATION: SAGE GREEN
Some beautiful wedding inspiration today, with the colour sage green. I have never been a fan on neon green… you know like the bright green on grass in the sunshine? I tend to make it a little less harsh in photoshop. However, I really love the colour sage. There’s a massive spectrum of sage green…
WEDDING INSPIRATION: RED/ORANGE
Over the years I have been fortunate to see many colour palette’s at weddings. Lot’s of gorgeous colours, some that seem to be on trend and some that seem like staple wedding colours.

Owner Leigha sells some beautiful jewellery and headbands, check out her Instagram and some…
Free photoshoots for key workers
I want to offer some free photoshoots to anyone who is working during this terrible time. I think family photoshoots are important and even more so when people haven’t been able to see the ones they love. I am talking NHS workers, police, fire, carers, supermarket workers, postmen/women, delivery drivers… anyone who is currently working…
Postponing weddings due to Covid-19
Postponing weddings due to Covid-19 can be a scary time. So I thought I’d write a little blog covering what I will be doing during the pandemic. Luckily, I have managed to move most of my couples to new dates. Couples who were supposed to get married in March, April, May and June, with the…
What I do after a wedding
When I get home from a wedding, the first thing I do is back up all of the photographs to a hard drive. I then put them onto my iMac and make another copy on my old computer. I like to have them in a lot of places for safe keeping. I also have a…
