Pierre Lemond Photo Shoot

For Christmas I bought my room-mate Cara a photo shoot at Pierre Lemond Photography. 

She did her shoot the week before last and had the opportunity to put a few names down for their own free shoot, including make-up and hair, including me. 

I organised my own for today and was able to take along a friend. I asked Emily and she was free.

They recommend to take 4-5 different outfits, ranching from casual to evening and anything in between.

On arrival Em and I were given a sheet to fill out with our details and how we would like our hair and make-up - natural, sexy, casual. 'Naturally sexy' was our choice. 

The lady who did my make-up and hair was amazing! She did a great job and was really friendly. 

We were offered some refreshments too, so started the afternoon with a glass of white wine. Of course a sneaky Snapchat had to be taken.

With each outfit we got both single shots and some together. 

My favourite of Emily and me

Our photographer was a blast and talked us through different poses and how much he preferred H&M to Primani (Primark). 



Due to being referred by Cara, we each received a free photo of our choice plus a £25 discount on photo packages, and I also had another £60 for the deposit I laid down. 

We ended up getting a package together as it worked out to be a lot cheaper. 

Pierre Lemond Photography is situated at 374 Old Street, EC1V 9LT, a 5 minute walk from Old Street Tube Station.

Back Home in RAdelaide!

I recently went back to my home town of RAdelaide for a family wedding.

It turned out to be a beautiful day, if a little bit hot in the morning, but the sun was shining and everybody was looking gorgeous!

Bride and I

Hair was done by the bride's hairdresser Kelly and it turned out brilliant! The bride had her hair over the left shoulder in curls. The bridesmaids all had something similar to this..

 

Kelly, the hairdresser, did a wonderful job and she did 7 people in about 4 hours. 

The makeup was done by Lively Makeup. I know the makeup is going to look awesome in the photos, but I have never before had my eyebrows drawn in, and I kind of thought that I looked a little bit like a transvestite....

Luckily, it all blended together and we all looked amazing!

The professional photography was done by Marina Birch Photography, and Marina and her helper. Marina took some awesome photos of the bride and groom and the bridal party.

The ceremony was held in the bride's family church and the reception at the bride's parent's acreage in Roseworthy. The theme of the wedding was rustic and everybody involved put heaps of effort into making the day fantastic.
There was a huge marquee with ten tables seating ten and the bridal table of 9. Also in the main marquee was a cheese-cake (actual cheese, with different varieties for each layer) on the top of a wine barrel and the cake table. 

The cake was a mudcake made by the mother of a high school friend. There was also a smaller tent set up as a bar and another for the catering by Rob's Roast. 

In front of the tent was a dance floor, overheard a string of fairy lights.
