I’m sure you’ve seen my multiple facebook posts about The Vintage and Handmade Wedding Fair happening this Sunday at the Mt Gravatt Showgrounds – I know I keep harping on about it! But I’m largely excited. This is the first time I’ve exhibited at a wedding fair! I’ve never done this before! What’s going to happen? Will brides-to-be like me? Will I make friends with the other vendors? I very much hope so.
Since coming back from our holiday overseas (another post about that later!) I’ve thrown myself into getting ready for this fair. I am offering the major prize at the fair on the day – a full day coverage wedding package for 1 lucky bride and groom – and I’ve got another neat little special just for fair-goers. My friend and all-round awesome person Jade is coming to help me on the day so that either A) I have someone to help me when I’m overrun with awesome people enquiring about my wedding packages or B) I have someone to talk to if my stand is quiet, ensuring that I don’t look like a loner. :-/
A while back, some of the other vendors exhibiting at the fair and I got together to do a little styled shoot, to use for promotion for the fair. You may have seen some of these gorgeous pictures on The Vintage and Handmade Bride Wedding Blog – but here are a few more.
Here’s to all the beautiful peeps responsible for this shoot:

Make sure you stop by my stall and say hello on Sunday! I will be giving out little goodie bags and would generally just love to chat with you. :) I’m so nervous! Eeek!
It’s been a while since I blogged a shoot! Today on the blog I have for you – Joanne and Michael’s engagement. :)
The most important thing for Joanne and Michael with this shoot was that they wanted a family portrait with their dogs Sizzle and Ivy. :) Since Sizzle and Ivy can be a bit of a handful (plus Ivy doesn’t like having her photo taken!), they had never been able to achieve this before. So it was top priority.
We started by just having some casual family time…
And then we GOT IT! Check out this stunning family portrait!
Joanne and Michael – I can’t wait to hang out with you both on your wedding day next month! WOOT!
Do you have furry family members? They make a great addition to any portrait shoot! Whoever said you couldn’t work with children or animals? ;-)
