My own, I love my work... but not that much!
Fresh, High end, bespoke, innovative, beautifully finished
The end result, for me handing over the finished Wedding Art Book is a joy! The clients reactions are priceless to me.
Time is always the enemy, especially with the preparations. 70% of the time the hair and make up runs over, and puts pressure on the whole pre wedding shoot. Best tip... tell your hair and make up artists you need to be ready 20 minutes before you actually do.
